This is a little bar on the main strip in Avalon. A friend of mine brought me here, and let's just…read moresay that it is a great little beach bar. If you are expecting fancy drinks and cocktails, then you need to head somewhere else. But if you want a nice drink, with a relaxed vibe and atmosphere then come right in. They do have a fine list of cocktails (nothing overly fancy - but sometimes that is not a good thing), and very good list of wine. This bar also does food - I honestly didn't try the food but it looked (and smelled) quite good. There is seats outside the bar, and also if you head back there is a small sitting area out the back. However, this is a small bar so if you are coming with a large group you might find it hard to get a table. Especailly because all the tables are for an average size of 4.

There aren't that many places where you can grab a drink less than 100m from the beach- and there…read moreare even less that aren't some old RSL crammed full of pokie machines and tooheys old on tap.* luckily this is one of those places! The Mill has a really quiet, easy going vibe (which is pretty much just Avalon in general) and has a decent selection of beers, wines and cocktails on offer. Staff were friendly and willing to make suggestions and the food smelt pretty awesome too! It's quite small- so don't come here with the extended family, but I will definitely be coming back here again. *for the record, nothing wrong with a Tooheys old every now and then- just making a point.

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....

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!

This place boasts 3 rotating taps and a Newtown-worthy selection of about a dozen or so bottles. I grabbed a Sierra Nevada and settled in to wait for my date. The smell of pulled pork filled the room and I couldn't resist ordering a couple of sliders (pork or beef $5/each, $12/3). Both were pretty tasty. I'd happily return to Secret Garden next time I'm early for a gig at the Enmore.

We did not have a reservation, but they fit us in as a walk-in at a small coffee table with 2 ottoman seats. Not the most comfortable set up, but I appreciate the cozy atmosphere, almost like you are sitting in someone's very posh and dimly lit den. All the NOLA classics were featured, like Vieux Carre (no likey), old fashioned (likey), and hurricane. There were some twists on the classics as well. I liked the newer house specialties, and ended up having 3 drinks, more than I intended. We snacked on some popcorn chicken, which was nothing special, but very satisfying when hungry. We were also lucky enough to be there when the live jazz band played a brief set, which really set the mood. I took off a star because not every drink was a homerun, and the service was a bit too impersonal for a speakeasy. We had a different server each time. One of my favorite parts of going to a speakeasy is to watch the bartenders work their magic and ask them for recommendations, and if I'm lucky, maybe get an off menu drink. Not quite set up that way here.

Pretty comprehensive drinks list and although the food is fairly simple it comes out fast, is fresh, and reasonably priced if you're sharing between a few people. I'd never tried a cheeseburger spring roll but they're basically all the ingredients of a cheeseburger in a deep fried roll - yum!
