We were tired and hungry and this filled a hole! Table was cleaned after we sat down and a lively vibe on a Friday early evening. Definitely a young persons venue. I had a Caesar salad with grilled chicken which I really enjoyed. Husband had fish and chips. The fish was in low proportion to the battery as in 3 strips

Good spot for a late meal and drinks. It was bustling when there were nothing else much open. We had a pizza which was fantastic!

Was surprised actually on the quality of the food! Great beer on tap, probably almost a dozen. Pizza special while we were there too.

Stop here for a beer and a meal, great location down at Circular Quay the beer was great and the food was good enough but the service was lacking which was disappointing. Nice enough pub though and a good spot for a drink.

It's alright. You cannot order drinks from the QR code, only food. It really makes no sense to me, because you could lose the table you are sitting at if you get up to get drinks with your friends. A staff member I asked about ordering drinks from the QR code literally said "I don't know I just started working here 2 days ago". I was taken back by the comment, how do you not know..? Otherwise the service was fine. I think better places are in the area though. Overall average.
