Rakinos

One of the best inner city bars for live music

If you walk down High Street on any given day or night, by chance you will hear the crowds on the balcony at Rakinos. One of the best inner city bars for live music, Rakinos are continually opening their minds to all genres of music, from both locally grown artists, as well as those from the international scene.

On any given evening you will find an agreeable blend of hiphop, soul and funk from the present and the past, dub and reggae, and anything else that is simply good music for everyone's ears.
