Tell us about your bar:

Booze slingin’, undie droppin’ goodtimes! As you descend the stairs you can tell the walls and carpet have seen some shit go down. Our philosophy is, you can do whatever you feel, as long as you’re not being a dick and everyone around you is enjoying themselves too. Too many bars take themselves too seriously – we like to have fun but at the same time providing our guests with exceptional service, quality cocktails, local beer and wine and a place that can feel like you’re in someone’s home. We’ve created a space that devotes a homage to Sydney, the building of its icons such as the Harbour Bridge and also our drinking past with classic photos of Reschs, Tooth’s and Tooheys.

What’s on the menu?

Eight different Australian craft bottled beers, a shit tinny (usually Melbourne Bitter), two rotating tap beers always from Sydney, five Aussie whites, five Aussie reds, a huge back bar focusing on whisky and cognac and a rotating seasonal cocktail list.

Care for a drink?

There’s no real signature, but the standouts are the Sazerac on tap and cognac and fresh apples, and of course our shit tinny.

Sounds:

A heavy blues focus that branches out at points with rock’n’roll, soul and a pinch of jazz. When the time strikes, we hit up some hip hop too.

Highlights:

This one time Charlie, one of the owners, brought a tricycle and we did a time trial around the whole bar with guests getting involved while drinking beers. You get the picture.

The bill comes to:

Mary’s burgers and fries plus a tap beer – $24.
