Our accommodations were in the area, but we wanted to venture out for Australian classics—fish and chips and maybe a meat pie. Off on a quiet corner, sits a little quaint place, a hotel and rooftop bar—we decided to give it a go. A security guard greeted us at the door, which seemed unusual for a Monday night. Nearby, there was a wall covered with prohibited behaviors that hinted at a lively weekend crowd, but on this night, the place had a chill, family-friendly vibe. We headed to the second floor, where a energetic and kind bartender poured drinks quickly and took our orders.The summer seltzer was a treat. No meat pie was not on the menu, and I didn't ask, opting for the fish & chips. We received a number, found our table and waited. About 10-15 minutes later, our meals arrived and I realized, I may have never really experienced fish & chips before. The golden brown, beer-batterd fish looked amazing and tasted even better. The crunch was audible with chunks of flaky, juicy cod with every bite. By far, this it was one of the best versions of this dish I have ever had. The fries were crispy but meh and lacked flavor. A fresh salad made up for the missing underwhelming chips. The space was laid-back and inclusive. Families enjoyed meals while toddlers explored, and guys played pool over beers. Despite the signs and security, the vibe felt safe and welcoming. Overall, PBH earns a solid 4 out of 5. The drinks and fish were a hit, though the fries fell short. If you visit, expect a relaxed atmosphere on weekdays—and maybe a wilder crowd on the weekend!

This was the greatest find of our Sydney adventure, completely unexpected. I’ve gotta say that just walking past, we wouldn’t have gone in. And my wife questioned my venue choice before we did. But I had purchased tickets to a live music gig and I was hell-bent on going. So we enter after the 3rd degree of inquisition around our tickets and the day unfurled into a tapestry of good food, good drinks and amazing music. There were two acts on for the afternoon. First up was Matt Ross, an acoustic folk story teller. He had sublime phrasing and all the time in world. The second act were jazz/blues trio featuring Ray Beadle, Clay Doley and Andrew Dickeson. The were amazing… where else on a Saturday afternoon can one go to hear 4 of Australia’s finest musicians for $11.00? The atmosphere was fantastic, mutual respect and music centered. Everyone wanted to say “G’Day” it was awesome. I’d highly recommend snagging this venue on another ticketed gig day and never judge a book by its cover.

Had a quick bite at this pub for dinner. We had the beef burger and the 1kg wings with franks hot sauce & blue cheese and BBQ sauce. Until i went to the counter myself to ask for the blue cheese, it was only then they told me there was no blue cheese available which was a disappointment as they could have told us when we were ordering. The burger patty was cooked medium rare and was great, however the burger was lacking in filling as it was mostly just slaw and sauce. The wings were pretty nice too, i think i liked the BBQ flavour more as it had a better flavour than Franks hot sauce that wasn't spicy for me. The meat was tender though, however we aren't sure if we actually got 1k wings, felt like we got less than that.

After walking around the whole area to find a decent place to eat, we came across this quiet place on Union Street. We noticed the balconies and the old-style building. We ordered the Nachos with spiced beef & Mexican black beans, loaded with guacamole, sour cream, salsa & jalapenos, and the PBH Beef Burger with chips & aioli on the side. I was personally more excited about the nachos as they were for $10, and I have to say that they were by far the best I've ever had! The burger came with a very generous portion of fries, so the extra fries we had were a little bit more than we needed. Excellent beer selection and friendly staff. Don't bother with the other places around, and come here for a hearty meal instead.

Great value pub grub. Only $19.50 for chicken schnitty with chips, slaw and your choice of gravy. Schnitzel was nicely crumbed and good quality chicken breast. Chips perfectly cooked and salted. Mushroom sauce was tasty and a good consistency. Coleslaw portion was tiny and mostly made up of chopped gherkins. Service was friendly, food made quickly. Loses a point for the 2 ciders on tap that were ordered. 1 was the dying dregs of the keg - cloudy and flat. The second one delivered 5 mins later from the new keg was bubbly and crisp. We hinted at a replacement but it wasnt offered. Rooftop bar terrace worth a look.

Nice pub which is open 24 hours. It was a popular choice on the night I was here. I think it is where everyone hits after all else has shut up shop for the night. Three floors of drinking space. Pokies available in a separate area for those that love that stuff. Has a quieter bar at rooftop level. Staff look out for and show due responsibility towards the odd customer who may be a little worse for wear. Very detailed vetting by security- they check everything and record ID details before they let you in. BTW I am nearer age 80 to 18, let me tell ya, so it wasn’t for that reason. Totally enjoyed my vodka!
