Bar hoppers, you're never far from a tipple. Check out the pubs or revel till all hours at Le Bon Ton. Hopsters, take your drinking boots to The Mill Brewery, Molly Rose, Stomping Ground brewery and beer hall or Fixation's tasting room, The Incubator.

Club caffeine, get your cup o' Joe from Proud Mary, Everyday Coffee or Aunty Peg's.

Musical nights

Don't let a night out in Collingwood end without seeing a band at The Tote, The Gasometer, Grace Darling or The Gem.
