First impressions last and this place has ticked all the boxes!…read more The Warwick is a newly established contemporary pub that boasts an awesomely fancy looking bar. A beer garden with its own bar and also an upmarket bistro. That has amazing food at ridiculously good prices! I had a beef wagu pappardelle pasta which was absolutely delicious and the wagu just melted in your mouth! There was also a sirloin steak ordered that was delicious and very well priced aswell. The atmosphere is just the big winner! Can't wait until it's fully renovated! This place is definitely going to be my new local!

Wow who knew such a nice establishment could exist on the border of Warwick Farm and Cabramatta?…read moreMost people are familiar with the Sunnybrook hotel which has only been rebadged as a Holiday Inn establishment. As part of the renovations and update, The Warwick has turned out as a pretty swanky hang out. I was here on a Friday evening and it quickly filled up with people and ended up being completely packed by 10pm.

I sort of stumbled upon this place as I was making my way back into Sydney from a rather long hike…read more I had decided to jump off the bus for a beer, and then found this rather nice place tucked away behind the pub. It turns out, as tends to be the case with most of these small breweries, that the beer, well, was pretty awesome. In fact, they have a number of different ones on offer as well. Even though it seems that most of the seating is outside, they also have a pretty nice upstairs area as well, and also a restaurant. This is certainly a place to check out.

Really cool brewery that is only a few months old and just cleaned up at the latest craft beer…read moreawards. You should 1st try the 'kite flyer' cream ale. It's their most popular and came highly recommended by the bar staff who said it 'just flies out the door'. Having said that, all of the beers are quite unique and tasty- got through 6 of the 9 beers on offer and wasn't disappointed at all. Each of their beers has a little description about its background/ where it came- some of which are quite interesting. If you get a chance, read up on the previous tenant- Really cool relaxed and easy going atmosphere, full of older people and has a welcoming feel- which is a nice change to the short skirts, meat heads and delinquents you get this time of night right next door at Mona pub. Also do take aways!! All the food looked great too. I tried the margarita pizza and the chips. Both awesome. In some magical turn of events the chips somehow tasted like those cheese and bacon balls when you eat them with the dip. Something I highly recommend.

I savoured every last bite of the steak including the chips and salad. The mushroom sauce was also a wonderful accompaniment to the steak. Simple pub style seating next to a beer brewery.

Okay, being in the Northern Beaches part of Sydney means that this isn't one of the easiest pubs to…read moreget to, though being on a main road does help. I didn't think that the pub was all that bad, though in a way there wasn't all that much to make it stand out (which seems to be a constant theme where I'm concerned). There is a nice outdoor area, but once again, not one that really grabbed my imagination.

Large pub set off a busy main road. It would be easy to miss, as this section of Brookvale is…read moresomething you'd normally be driving through as quickly as possible. But it was renovated earlier this year, and the expansive pub inside doesn't look too bad. There's a sports bar and smoking area up front, and large bistro/drinking/beer garden areas out the back. Inside is a bit too dark for my tastes; a skylight would go a long way. But the drinks selection is decent, and is the food menu. They've got one of those cook-your-own-steak grills if you don't mind doing that. We stopped in for a Sunday lunch and found it relaxing. Good service, not too packed, nice clean toilets, shaded seats outside. All of this would normally add up to a 3-star review for me, but my lunch easily tips it up to a 4-star. For I had here, at the Brookvale Hotel, the best burger of my five years in Australia. It was thick, coarsely-ground, blackened, well-seasoned meat, with crisp, fresh toppings, delicious spicy sauce, and a springy brioche bun. It was an amazing, sensational hamburger.

I was on an 8hr layover in Sydney on my way to Perth and decided to venture out to Manly via the harbor water taxi. It was in the middle of a hellacious rainstorm, so the ferry ride was definitely "lively". 4Pines Brewpub was the closest brewery to the quay, so I made a run for it and was greeted with a nice beer selection (did a flight #natch ), friendly staff, ample seating (w/a view), and respite from the storm. It was a great way to say g'day to beer in Oz! Definitely recommend stopping by if you're ever in that neck of the woods DownUnder as it is super convenient to the Corso which takes you to Manly Beach.

I probably shouldn't call it a Manly Pub, or even a beach side pub, though in a way it did have some charm about it that made me think that it was quite okay. Actually, I guess it was the outdoor area that did it to an extent, though it also had a nice feel about it inside. The staff were pretty good, and the place was quite relaxing, though it really isn't one of the best that I've visited.

When the platter was served it looked AMAZING!!! There was a mix of fresh seafood - oysters, balmain bugs and prawns, as well as cooked seafood including a mountain of calamari, battered fish, battered prawns and a huge bowl of chips... it was served with a huge amount of fresh fruits including mango, pineapple, watermelon, orange, strawberries, raspberries, passionfruit, blueberries, honeydew melon... basically everything!! The other dish - the mussels - were delicious!! There is a choice of a tomato based sauce or a creamy white wine sauce for them... we chose the tomato - it was great, and served with a baguette for dipping. The salad was the only average dish, as I think it was outshined by the other dishes but all in all the meal was GREAT and I would definitely recommend this place!! I would also like to point out how welcoming and attentive the staff were!!! - GREAT service for us!

The thing with Bondi Junction is that I usually only go to either the shopping centre for a movie, or jump on a bus at the railway station and go down to the beach - I never take a right hand turn and do a bit of exploration. Basically it's an Irish Pub but one with a lot of warmth and a great atmosphere. Actually, for a pub it is quite large, especially the sports bar. It has all the trappings of your typical pub, including a VIP lounge, but it is definitely a pub that has a lot of character.

In a nutshell - not worth coming here. Expensive, and not worth the price that you pay. Yes, the…read morestaff are nice and lovely. Unfortunately this does not replace the cost that you are paying. Specifically as all the other places down the round are cheaper, and the atmosphere is better. So this is one of those small, thin (yet long) bars. It is made more for a sit down and chill. However, for the prices that you are paying, the bar really can't justify itself. Maybe if the atmosphere was awesome, it would be alright. But the set up of the bar and the design, the atmosphere will never match the price. So in summary, I would aviod this place for any other place in the beaches.

Possibly the best wine / cocktail bar on the Northern Beaches…read more Lovely little bar and a great place to meet with a few friends for a drink and nibbles. The bar is long , but with seating at the front and at the back and down the wall, you can always find either a couple of intimate seats for a romantic bottle of wine or a table for a group gathering. The food is well presented, and tasty, the cocktail list is extensive and well made, and the wine list whilst not extensive is not overpriced. The music and ambience sets the place off beautifully and the staff are very friendly. My wife and I regularly drop in here for food and wine on a Friday night and spend less than $100 easily (depends which bottle of wine i go for :-)), so good value as well....
