    Guests can order quality steaks, crunchy chips, and generous comfort bites prepared with care to accompany their drinks.

    A great local spot for a well-priced and tasty feed. Drink selection was a delight but the absolute stand-out was the juicy eye-fillet steak.

  • Real Ale

    Karl is a master brewer and the fact that some friends and I regularly make the trek from the Inner West to have some of what we reckon is the only genuine Real Ale in Sydney is testament to that.
