Held our engagement party at this venue, had a fantastic time in a well-sized place. Great in-house brewed beers, good small selection of wines and always friendly service.

This place was quiet on a Sunday evening. Typical hipster bar on the North shore. Reminds me of the bar from the TV show 'cheers', has that time warped feel, but pleasant at the same time.
Considering that it was quiet, can't comment on too much on the service as we were the only ones there! If you're in the neighbourhood, it's worth the visit, but wouldn't come all the way just to visit this bar!
Honey Rider will tickle your fancy if you have never been to a new, hip bar, as it will fool you into thinking that it is one. It has pretty awesome drinks, and the staff is cool, but it is not exactly the hottest ticket in town. It's more of a place you'd go to if you worked next door for a cocktail at the end of the day, and a yarn with the boys behind the bar, who seem like the sort who'd build up great rapport with regulars.
This small bar on the border of Neutral Bay and Cremorne has utilised recycled and refurbished materials to create a sleek and contemporary bar with artful nostalgia. Quite an elegant and romantic feel achieved with touches of greenery and candlelight. The vibe is relaxed and friendly. It's exactly what the pub/piano club dominated neighbourhood needs.
Funky frames, artworks in the bathroom, upside down pot plants and a good wine list.
Good Times And Great Vibes. Named after Ursula Andress's sexy Bond girl character in Dr. No - Honey Rider is a great small bar addition to the Neutral Bay strip on Military Road. Boasting 4 x taps of regularly rotating craft beers, a decent selection of spirits, and a good range of cocktails, Honey Rider is bound to please. Food-wise, there's a compact section of bar snacks, and 4 x styles of THE TASTIEST pizza's you'll find the Lower North Shore. The interior space is narrow, long, and recently renovated, with seats at the bar, 4 x high tables lining the the exposed-brick wall, and a set of old theatre seats and a comfy couch down the back. The staff are super friendly, always up for a laugh, and know their stuff! Definitely worth a visit!
Good for a drink after work or dinner, good brews and range of craft beer - plenty of space now that the extra area to the left is added with nice low light. Nice crew and some live music.
Great local venue. Covid certainly hasn't helped this local business over last few years, well worth supporting if you leave in the area.
Friendly staff, nice beers, decent happy hour with bar games and comfortable seats. Cool decor!
Great fun atmosphere - great to take a few mates to and play some darts or have a pizza. Was quiet the Wed night we stopped in - had a bit of fun with the bar staff. Will be back. Good location with a local feel and good music and staff.
A clean and tidy venue with a decent selection of beer and wine
Love this bar! Staff are friendly, has a relaxed vibe, and the craft beer and cocktail selection are on point. Decor is cool, you can tell they have made an effort to bring their personality into that. I've been coming to Honey Rider occasionally for a few years and they have maintained their standards and I have adapted to being COVID-Safe very well. Thanks for the good times HR and for making me feel safe.
New to the area and have been searching for my new local for the past 2 months. Went to this unassuming hole in the wall bar and the vibe was great.
The owner of the pub was very welcoming and shared a laugh or two.
Sweet bar! See you next week!
Phil and his team accommodated my group at the last minute when our plans fell through because of the crazy heat last weekend!! Everybody had a blast... afternoon of great music, fab cocktails and exceptional service :)
