Cantina OK!

Sydney, Australia

No. 96 on The World's 50 Best Bars 2024, No. 41 on The World's 50 Best Bars 2022, and No. 23 on The World's 50 Best Bars 2021.

Three-time Tequila Bar of the Year in a standing-room space for about twenty guests, Cantina OK! operates on intensity rather than scale. The agave program runs deep, with a collection spanning artisanal mezcals and heritage tequilas that rival specialist bars in Oaxaca. The tight quarters force proximity between bartender and guest, creating a conversational intimacy that larger venues struggle to replicate. Cantina OK! proves that size and influence share no correlation.
