The pub food continues to impress me in Australia. The commercial hotel is quite a large venue with…read moreplenty of different place to sit and relax. There is a courtyard with two levels of seating and at least two different rooms inside. As others have said, they do seem to cater to smokers, but we were able to find a spot that was pretty much smoke free in the courtyard. It was quite busy as we arrive about 5:30 and there were a lot of locals that appeared to have just gotten off work and were enjoying drinks. It is near/in the CBD close to the train station. They have copper beer tanks which are supposed to be filled with fresh Carlton Draught beer directly from the brewery. I tried it, and it didn't seem to maker the beer any better. Maybe it does taste different, but I could not tell. They did have a good beer selection overall. What seems to be somewhat typical in the area, we ordered at the bar, and were give a buzzer to let us know when our food was ready. We then went and picked it up from the counter along with utensils. We had the Crispy Skin Pork Belly and the Crab ravioli Both were very tasty and exceeded our expectations. The only reason They get 4 instead of 5 stars is the smoking and that we didn't really finds a designated non-smoking area. I'd go there again.

It's not quite in the Parramatta town centre, but when I passed by (and dropped in for a drink) there were a fair few people here. Mind you, I got in before the hordes of teachers descended upon the place since the bartender told me that this was the goto place for end of term drinks. The beer garden was awesome, and the staff really friendly. They also have a nightclub that starts up around 9:00 pm, though I was a little too early for that (and I'm probably getting a bit too old for nightclubs these days anyway, though I still enjoy the odd dance). It's a great little pub, and certainly had a really nice atmosphere.

Uncle Kurt's is a tiny one room cocktail dive bar in a back alley under a multistorey carpark just across from the old Parramatta Mall not far from the old Roxy. They've gone with a New York theme with heavily graffitied walls, hip hop beats & deli style sandwiches, meats & jaffles. The cocktail list is split into 3 sections of classics, modern & creamy all coming in a shade under $20 a pop created by genuine experienced mixologists. If cocktails aren't your go they also have a mixture of craft beers, a variety of wine & of course straight up spirits. Staff are all friendly, knowledgeable & happy to help.

They are open late but it was a saturday night till midnight and kitchen closed at like 11:30pm but I dont know about the other nights are like. Anyway totally worth it.
