Transit Bar


Tucked tightly under the YHA hostel on Akuna St in the City, the Transit Bar has emerged from the rubble of the former Church bar offering a fresh and vibrant atmosphere.

Taking the better elements of the Aussie Pub and lounge bar styles Transit Bar has been described as an effective fusion of both.

A diverse range of draught and bottled beers, wines and spirits from both around Australia and the world are available. Transit Bar stocks eighteen international bottle beers ranging from Asahi (Japan) to Staropramen (Czech).

Also on offer are eight different draught beers, varied single malt, double malt and blended scotch range, quite a decent bourbon collection and a fine range of vodka’s for any connoisseur to sit and sip upon.

Transit Bar entertains a diverse range of people by offering musical showcases from local, interstate and international bands of many styles and varieties. This also appeals to the local and international travellers who visit Transit Bar due to its close proximity to the YHA and laid back demeanour.


Boasting some of the best live entertainment in Canberra, there is something happening at Transit Bar most nights of the week. Huge National and local indie, hip hop, electro and punk acts take the stage every week always providing maximum diversity in genre and mood.
