If you're wondering why the club you are in isn't full it's because Victorians prefer a good bar with good people and maybe some live music. Darcy's is staple and is usually packed full on Friday and Saturday nights. Known for always having a live band this is a place for the young and old to get down on cramped dance floor and sing their faces off. In the summer this central pub's patio is packed. Good bar food at a reasonable price.

Indian Cuisine lovers! Treat Yourself! This isn't going to be cheap, but it will be worth it. East African- East Indian cuisine is vibrant and a must for curry lovers. If you can't afford to eat in I would suggest ordering some samosas to go, they have a few different kinds. The Samosas are less dough and more filling than traditional ones.
