Rambler is a vibrant walk-in venue designed to entertain both the public and the guests of Drifter, a hostel-hotel located directly above.

The design draws heavily on mid-century modernist influences from the 1950s, an era closely tied to the building’s origins. Elements like tubular steel shelving, banquette seating, and chrome-finished chandeliers are thoughtfully paired with mid-toned timber accents, black leather upholstery, and vintage furniture. Rich in visual detail, Rambler’s aesthetic is playful and dynamic, blending custom artwork and architectural finishes to create an inviting space that feels both timeless and fresh, setting the perfect stage for an eclectic modern hospitality experience.
