Some places just can’t be replicated. That’s certainly true of what’s widely considered to be the Harbour City’s last country pub, what with its well-worn floorboards, barrel tables and racing-green walls covered in memorabilia. Live bands on Wednesdays and Sundays pull crowds, as do the straight-shooting house beers and starchy thrice-cooked chips.

Best for: Schooners with a side of history.
