10 Bars (With Happy Hours) In The CBD For Late Night Business Meetings

If there’s one thing we can all get behind – it’s that business meetings can be boring and, especially when they are scheduled after office hours, something we want to get out off as soon as possible.

But if we have the option to take our meetings outside of the company meeting rooms and discuss over good food and drinks, it might not be so bad. We may even look forward to it.
