Cheers has been a major pit stop for many of us over the years and through it’s temporary evolution of the 80 Proof spinoff, we rediscovered a great underground venue space that hosts a lineup of entertainment from stand up comedy to hip hop crew dance-offs to corporate functions. So it’s nice that it goes back to basics with what we loved most about it - Sport, Entertainment and Hearty food. Currently there is a streak of Asian in some of the dishes which makes sense, but all our old faves are still there.
THE HAWKER PLATE is a mixed grill of pork belly slices and southern fried chicken. Its a great example of how it’s menu has streaks of Asian influence ...read more
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this place really isn't the best place to have a drink in Sydney. Okay, it certainly isn't a bad pub, but it also isn't one of the best either (and you do have quite a lot to choose from). I suspect that they are trying to create the feeling of that old 80s sitcom, but coming in here and having a drink suggests to me that it hasn't worked that well, and if it did in the past, it isn't doing so anymore. Also, this is one of those pubs that has pokie machines in the smokers room, which I've always found a little odd, but then again not being from Sydney probably helps with that (everybody I spoke to thought that having smoking rooms with the pokies was natural – it's just I haven't seen anything like that anywhere I've been). In the end I'd probably give this one a pass (which is what I generally do).
