This all-day wine bar and its handwritten little black book has our reviewer hooked
Lunch, dinner or snacks and drinks at Bar Local Drop can stretch happily from “a quick one” to “one more” to “we might as well”...

Clever bistro with the feel of a 1960s or ’70s European supper club.

Opened in the shadow of its predecessor Gerald’s, Bar Carnation is startlingly bright
Gerald’s Bar’s successor continues the successful formula of good drinks plus good people plus good food equals the best times.

Knick-knack-heavy pub with one of the best Guinness pours in the city.

There’s plenty to love at two-hat Aalia’s new wine bar. Shame it breaks this important rule
The new Martin Place wine bar from the team behind Nour is strong, and the people-watching is primo. There’s just one thing missing.

Winnifred’s
Champagne bar-bistro hiding in plain sight in the Valley.

‘Outstanding value’: A two-course dinner and a show (with a bit of skin on show) for $69
Le Bar Supper Club brings theatrical drinks and burlesque nights to a bayside suburb better known for its golf.

Callan Boys thought Sydney might never have a hotel bar like London or NY. Until now
You know, the kind of place to take a lunch meeting or swing by for a martini, making you forget you’re going on to somewhere else. Plus, it has the most lavish chip in town.
