Where to see free live music every night of the week

This little neighbourhood bar in a corner terrace hosts live music on every night of the week. Inside it's a little battered and hard loved, but it’s also comfy, familiar and takes you back to the days when jaffles and Cheezels were the dinner of kings. They have a nice collection of craft beers in bottles so if you don’t feel like an Orion or a Singha on tap you can furnish your drinking hand with a Lord Nelson, Temple Brewing Co, 4 Pines, White Rabbit, a Savanna Dry or a can of Rio Brava.

The heart of the business district is not where you’d expect to find an underground heavy metal pizza party, but Frankie’s Pizza by the Slice doesn’t much go in for the expected. They’re open until 3am, seven nights a week, which means Mondays can redeem themselves with a set from the famous house band, a frozen Margarita and a tin of Pistonhead lager. Tuesdays is for karaoke, which is followed by two nights of live gigs at the heart of the working week. Fridays and Saturdays hit peak party, but there’s no rest for the wicked on Sundays – just more live bands.
