:There is a new Mediterranean eatery in town and as far as we’ve seen they’re up there with the best. Love Thy Neighbour, occupying the space that was formerly known as Beer & Wine Garden, and which was formerly formerly known as &Union (if you’re from the Mother City you’ll remember this local watering hole), has opened its doors for anyone looking to indulge in what we are dubbing “The Big Greek Feast”. The large and inviting outdoor area is a favourite place to stop for beers and cocktails after work on a hot summer’s day... "

Positioned perfectly; the popular neighbourhood hangout is a fair distance from the congestion of the CBD while still being close enough to feel connected to the exciting buzz of the inner city. The soft leather booths and crackling fire make it easy to understand why this local watering hole is so popular. "
