I really, really didn’t like this pub, but then again I would hardly consider it to be a beacon that attracts the cool and hip Sydney youth. Well, it does, particularly since they did have a quiz night on the Tuesday night I visited, but I really wasn’t all that impressed with the place. For one thing it is a bit of a dive, and is one of those pubs that you’ll walk past at 10:00 in the morning and people will be outside drinking their beers. Also, the bouncers aren’t at all friendly, but then again that seems to be a Sydney thing in general. However, that pub has actually been around for like, well, forever, so I can’t be too harsh on it. Still, it really isn’t a place that I would be hurrying back to all that quickly.
This place is rough as guts! I do like it though. If I am going to go to an Irish pub, then this is where I would head. Good craig!
Seriously though, it can get a little bit sketchy late at night but if you are there for an after work drink it is quite ok.
Easily accessible from George St. There is a kebab place nearby. The tram is also located very close to the pub.
Live music is usually playing which is a plus.
