The vibe was good because lots of cricket fans were about giving a great holiday vibe. The food was good, music had a good vibe and service was friendly and inviting. I really like the setting, sofas as well as dining tables and chairs with street seating options too - nice for watching the world go by.

Very disappointing, the bar would close down inside drinking hours, and the snake bar has been removed make the atmosphere very sad.

Very friendly staff. A breath of fresh air actually! Nothing was a problem for this lovely young female hostess. She was a credit to her employer / the publican / the respective owners. Polite, attentive, non- intrusive, professional & very engaging.I have only frequented this pub on a few occasions in the past, so essentially, I had nothing solid with which to compare it to. The premises itself has recently undergone extensive renovations & similarly therefore, it was truly an unexpected but very welcome surge of relief & contentment to be able to relax & unwind in such a clean, comfortable, respectful, welcoming, warm environment, especially after the more punitive, dragonian, restrictive type of existence we have all been forced to endure of late . Whatever the reason, valid or invalid, no one can in all fairness, deny the somewhat confrontational, divisive, austere energy, intruding on one's personal space in recent times. The decor was appropriately sombre, yet not suffocating or all - consuming; providing just the right composition of natural light with the more exclusive, elusive smudge of darkness, no doubt (representing the ever present veil of anonymity & intrigue). Bossting an outstanding location, right in the heart of Sydney's CBD, this little Den of Entertainment & Iniquity" is your non- exclusive home away from home, your modern, tasteful, well appointed, uncomplicated home base , designed for essential grounding & reconnecting with self. The Surrey Hotel as it is often fondly referred to by the locals, is spacious, well appointed, affordable, atmospheric & thoroughly entertaining ....! ( provided one is winning naturally ...!). The ambience is second to none. I was unashamedly singing away to all the songs in the Surrey's' background music cache without a care in the world as to how unfortunate I might sound, or who might be listening or how harshly they may be judging, instead I just sang to my heart's content ...& most importantly of all ... I had fun ....Go, enjoy, let go ....!!
