Pecata Mundi

About

Right in the centre, two minutes from the cathedral, this dark dive bar offers a welcome change from the traditional strip-lit or hip mismatched furniture joints that abound. With bizarre gothic decor and friendly staff, the focus is on the music - 1970s, '80s and '90s rock. An unpretentious crowd quaffs well-priced drinks; there's a special gin and tonic menu. - Lonely Planet -
