About Laneway Hotel Pyrmont

Laneway Hotel flips the Pyrmont pub script by running a full Thai kitchen alongside classic counter steaks and wood-fired pizzas. Forget standard counter meals—locals drop in for rich curries and hot noodle plates right next to house burgers and crisp schooners of craft beer. The room stays relaxed beneath a wall of vintage doors, accommodating big post-wedding tables on a pay-your-way bistro model just as easily as fast pre-show bites before the Lyric Theatre. Early commuters grab morning flat whites from the baristas, while game days draw fans around the screens for UFC bouts and daily dinner specials. Kitchen orders arrive fast, handling dairy-free steak sandwiches and gluten-free pad Thai with genuine kitchen care.

  • Dual Western and Thai Menus for Mixed Parties

    The kitchen satisfies diverse tastes across large groups by serving classic pub cuts alongside an authentic Thai specialty menu.

    I was super happy to see not only traditional pub food, but also a full Thai menu. My in-laws and parents were so much happier with heir picks of Thai curry, pork belly, and lemon mayo chicken, while my friends for parmis, pizzas, and I had a steak.
