What people say
Great atmosphere for an inner city bar. The food was solid and very reasonably priced for the portions. Nachos are huge! I just wanted to give a shout out to the bar staff who were so friendly and accommodating to our friends two year old. They gave her some colouring in, and some things to play with. She accidentally broke a glass and they just cleaned it up and checked in on us.
I celebrated my birthday here recently and it was such a wonderful experience. Drinks and food were fab. Staff were so accommodating and helpful. Would highly recommend
Nice Mexican restaurant on Sussex street in Sydney. Right next to hyatt regency darling harbour hotel. Nice bright and colourful decor. Big nacho helping but not necessarily the best in taste. Advertised all margaritas at $16-18 for Mon-Fri but did not give the discount, claiming the discount doesn’t apply to frozen margaritas but didn’t inform so when I was ordering.
Visited with work mates on a Friday night. We had a booking and got seated in the downstairs area. Ordered a range of their happy hour snacks as well as some of the other items on the menu. Generous serving size and great drink options. My favourite was the cauliflower!
Great pub and I visited a few times during my recent time in the city. There’s a small number of tables on the pavement out the front but plenty inside, spread out across three areas. It’s a lively spot even on a Thursday evening but it was possible to grab a stool at the bar and both the staff and crowd were friendly. Lots to admire in the decor and a good location - worth visiting for an enjoyable drink.
