Tell us about your bar:
Hustle & Flow reopened at the start of the year under the ownership of a local family who undertook a stylish refurbishment with handmade timber furniture, complementing pieces by renowned graffiti artists like Days One and Yipes. The bar is a very cool space with a uniquely urban signature and has become an artistic hub for artists of various mediums. Hustle & Flow offers a large selection of bottled beers, wines, inventively tasty cocktails and impressive top-shelf liquors, all at reasonable prices.
What’s on the menu?
American-style burgers, fries and sides from The Milk Bar by Café Ish. Burgers range from $10 to $18.50. The ‘WTF’ burger is highly recommended, although this bad boy is not for the faint-hearted given it contains two house-blend beef patties, double American cheddar, pulled pork, artisan bacon, hash brown, red onion, pickles, house BBQ sauce, and jalapeno and lime aioli. Add hand-cut, twice-cooked chips and a beer for $12.
Care for a drink?
Red Horseis a seven per cent beer from the Philippines, a deeply hued larger with a distinctive sweetish taste balanced by a smooth bitterness that leads into a strong alcohol kick. This is the only bar in Sydney where you’ll find it.
Sounds?
Hip hop, R&B, funk, soul, reggae and all that good shit!
Highlights:
The staff are always friendly, engaging and up for a laugh. The bar has a comfortable and funky vibe that is unpretentious and welcoming. Enjoy a drink with friends and take advantage of the extra-long ‘happy hour’ during the week, get your groove on Friday and Saturday nights or chill for a Sunday session. There is something for everyone, with a wide range of events and themed nights, including local and international performances, champion DJs, live bands, interactive theatre, community fundraisers, live radio broadcasts, comedy, movies, sports and art exhibitions. It’s also available for private functions. Hustle & Flow Bar is very different to anything else: it’s the perfect place to socialise or start a night out and still beat the lockout laws. Get in early and claim your spot. It’s a little hard to find but well worth the effort.
