About Chez Crix

Chez Crix delivers unpretentious French bistro cooking tucked into the moody pub surrounds of Surry Hills’ Cricketers Arms. Settle into deep maroon leather booths under low lighting for a tight menu of classics—crisp steak frites, featherweight chicken liver parfait, and tender flounder. Front-of-house staff steer you through natural drops and international bottles with easy familiarity, rounded out by a balanced house martini or earl grey custard with Grifter caramel.

  • Unfussy Bistro Classics: Classic bistro staples like steak frites and chicken liver parfait served without white-tablecloth pretense.
  • Moody Pub Setting: Dim lighting, maroon leather booths, and warm pub character make it an effortless neighborhood date spot.
  • Engaging Wine Guidance: Staff share tailored recommendations across local natural pours and classic international bottles.

Before you head over

Helpful tips on ordering, wine selections, and dining room atmosphere at Chez Crix.

  • Ask Staff for Wine Pairings

    Lean on the knowledgeable floor team and sommelier for wine pairing advice across their mix of local Australian and international selections.

  • Order Across the Focused Menu

    The dining room features a tight, focused menu with pub-bistro classics like steak frites and chicken liver parfait; larger parties may want to order generously across multiple courses.

  • Plan for a Lively Pub Atmosphere

    Because the dining room sits within a lively pub setting, sound levels can rise quickly when the room fills up; consider arriving earlier or booking during quieter periods if you prefer a quieter conversation.
