However, as far as I'm concerned I really couldn't see any bridge from this pub. As a place to grab a beer, well, it was okay, but nothing really all that out of the ordinary. Also, being a bit of a hike from anywhere but the local area probably suggests that it is a place suited for the locals.

Ah the Bridgey! I once saw a guy put another guy's head through the front window here. Mind you,…read morethat was years ago when it had a bit of a rougher reputation. These days it's a perfectly serviceable old man-style pub with some good food specials and a daily happy hour. The food is gastro pub prices (think $20-$25 mains and $8 bowls of chips) but there's a special most nights, the chicken schnitty one is particularly good, you get a huge gourmet schnitterz with a range of flavours and slaw and chips and the entire plate is big as a man's face. This is a good place to watch the footy at over a quiet jar of something cold and bitter. Hunker down in one of the leather couches and ask for your game to be turned on the big screen, although it will depend on what's on and how many other punters are in for the other codes. AFL, pffft. Barely a sport.

I was…read morethere on a Monday afternoon for lunch and sat outside away from the business folk and the cricket watching business meetings. The outdoors particularly offers a variety of seating arrangements - patio style stone circle table, black lounge chairs, pub garden benches, café style - there's probably a spot to suit every mood or need. Free wifi available which makes it great for casual business meetings, those staying in the hotel or freelances needing a 'third' place to work. Prices are not cheap but not over the top either.I had a Caesar salad with chicken for $20. The portion was small but enough for lunch and the chicken was quality breast chicken. I was satisfied but wasn't exceptional. My dining partners had burgers - fresh buns, perfectly cooked chicken ($15) and Wagyu beef ($15). For the gluten intolerant there are gluten free pizza bases available and the salads of course but no GF bread. My pick for desert is the Hazelnut and Nougat Ice Cream Terrine with fresh strawberries ($12). Toilets are clean, stylish but dark. High chairs for kids and despite being a pub if you sit outside on quiet day it the garden area is quite a good place to take kids. No grass mind you. Wine starts at $6/glass and goes up to $285 for a bottle of Dom Perignon Vintage.

Actually the parking in this area here is still a bit of a mission but who cares because once you're inside and that first sip of sweet sweet Aperol Spritz hits your lips you'll forget all about the roving bands of rabid North Sydney Council Rangers and sink into sunshine, views, and a big, airy, Hampton-esque fitout that'll have you sitting up to beg for buttermilk, if that's a beverage you're partial to and don't mind grovelling for, because it's not on this menu, or any menu that I'm aware of outside of, I don't know, Iowa cow country. The premises are still owned by North Sydney Leagues Club, so if you're inside the 5km radius you'll need to become a member ($10 for 3 years + they send you drink vouchers = deal of the century), but it's worth it for long lunches, rustic drinks, a petting zoo on Sundays, and my new favourite co-working spot: the outside tables with a long black and a fresh breeze tickling my chin whiskers. Completely irrelevant fact: I had my 21st birthday here back when it was a bowlo.

Opening day was 10th November, however, the bistro was not open until 11th.
