Great pub food with amazing outdoor deck sitting area. Trivia host was very friendly and easy-going though we did not really participate (thanks for the invite though!). However the other staff was surprisingly inattentive, no greetings or any other form of effective communication (pointed at the bar and asked us to order there in a not-so-polite tone and bar was unattended at that moment). Hopefully it’s just a one-off thing because we do want to visit again to try out other dishes and for the variety of beers:)
Great pub to go to on the weekend. Been here a couple times now with my partner. I would say the best meal is the chicken schnitzel with mushroom sauce. The chips that come with it are my favourite part, seasoned well, they are the best pub chips I have ever had. We have also tried the burger which is a good size but doesn't compete with the schnitzel. Good prices as well.
Insanely amazing food! I would recommend the mushroom ravioli and calamari. Would definitely come again!!!
Sat outside and it was a little cold, but food was so worth it.
Trinity is a 10 minute walk from Central Station, but is a great place to have lunch. I ate with my colleagues and ordered the Mushroom Ravioli, it was perfectly made and had great flavour. Trinity bar has a bar area, outdoor seating area and an upstairs area. The ambience outdoors is very peaceful and it's a perfect place to have a cold beer.
Quite good, service good, atmosphere great. We initially sat inside when live music was on-TOO LOUD. When we moved outside it was great.
Food was quality, great assortment.
Defiantly go again.
Decent pub food, specialising in schnitzel parmas and fried chicken. Also good value and a nice corner location in between Crown Street's main restaurant blocks. I had a trademark chicken schnitzel with Monterey parmigiana - this consisted of black beans and guacamole. In truth there was maybe a little too much going on with this dish, but sometimes you just say 'What the hey'.
Great pub grub and well priced and good quality. Staple pub Meals are served here, burgers, steaks, parmi's. Nice atmosphere and good service.
Delicious! We popped in for dinner, craving pub food and Trinity is our fave in the neighbourhood, Surry Hills.
We had Parmegiana and Crab Burger. They were both yummy! I love the Crab Burger, it's my first time trying it here and it doesn't disappoint.
Will be back again!

Trinity Bar is a corner pub located in Surry Hills on Crown Street. We joined a group of friends here prior to heading for a dinner down the street. If possible grab a table in their beer garden section out the front - it gives you a great view of the street and a chance to people watch. The inside is set up like an English style pub, with the leather books and dark wood panelling along one wall and the cool decor. As we were only here for a quick drink prior to heading off we didn’t grab a bite to eat but the food coming out to other tables looked good. Will be back to try the menu and soak up the atmosphere of Surry Hills some more
Been to the trinity bar for the past 3 Wednesday nights now. It's kinda becoming a regular occurrence for me and the work lot. Here's why;
* The new burgers on the menu are EPIC. Seriously if you go you need to have their new southern fried chicken burger. My mouth is watering literally typing this!
* The trivia is very good. Great mix of questions.
* The trivia host is NUTS!! In a good way.
See it to believe it!!
Maybe book as can get quite busy.
Good pub grub at reasonable prices! This is probably driven by the amount of competition in the area. The southern fried haloumi is amazing!!
Craft beer is excellent and the pub obviously takes pride in keeping the taps cleans and fresh.
Traditional pub with cool outdoor setting looking out on Surry Hills. Full house every time I drive past.
Good pub grub and wonderful service!
Consistently good and well priced pub food and nice service. My local. Haven't had a bad meal yet! Nice seating outside and they have a huge range of interesting condiments to have w your burger/steak!

Good meals and great drinks on tap. Definitely worth visiting. If you're looking for a dinner date or friends hanging out this is the place to chill and eat.
Along Devonshire street within close distance to each other are four good local pubs - Strawberry Hills, Dove&Olive, Shakespeare and finally Trinity before you turn on to Crown street. It's hard to choose when you have so many options all distinctive in its own ways. The selling point for Trinity is it's outdoor seating on the corner. It is perfect for people watching on a balmy night or sunny afternoon. The food here is no competition to neighbouring D&O or Shakies in my opinion. But it does offer a big screen inside which is handy for sports event. We watched tennis here during Australian Open.

Friends birthday so we arrived around 8.30pm on a saturday. Went straight the the upstairs area which a bit smaller than downstairs.
We ordered the beef burger with chips. After the second bite i couldnt eat any more. It tasted funny like it was a bit off.
For dessert i got the waffle which was great so it helped restore some confidence back in the food.
Bar staff were friendly and helpful.
Always a good stopping point if you want a beer in between the station and the SCG. Good range of ales and a good outdoor drinking area that's warm in the winter!
My goodness the lamb spaghetti bolognese was sooo good! It was actually my friend's dish so I only had a bit, but next time I'm there I know what I'm ordering! The jalapeno aoili which came with the onion rings was really nice too, but the rings themselves were average. Barramundi was very fresh so this too was a nice dish, but a little bland, however if you would like this can be easily fixed with a little extra seasoning.
Epic roast dinner on Sundays. Have been here on multiple occasions and have never been disappointed. Tonight we had the Christmas roast and I went for the nachos. They looked small but totally surprised me. Loaded with beautiful brisket filling. Delicious and just enough a good portion. Staff are very efficient and quite friendly. Great atmosphere and super warm decor. Will definitely be a regular here
Just had a great soft shell crab burger ($16). Others had the squid salad which they said was good. Friendly staff as well. Beer of the month was $5, which was a big plus!!
I've been to Trinity bar many times, for good reason. Firstly, the staff are friendly and efficient. The food is consistently traditional pub meals, with good value specials depending on the day. It's a good place for a beer and watching the sport, inside in the vintage feel pub. I've been to a few functions upstairs which have never disappointed. Highly recommended.
I've had the pulled brisket nachos here - amazing! A deceptively small meal, the pulled brisket is substantial, soft and tasty. The guacamole is also generous. What looks like a good snack is a filling meal. Drink prices are reasonable and trivia night is pretty fun. The bar staff are relaxed and friendly, and generous - our group got a free jug at the beginning of the night, just for being there early. I'd like to try the pork belly burger next time.
Great meal and great service. Bar/wait staff always friendly
Last night, H and I headed out to Surry Hills for dinner and drinks. It was a highly anticipated meeting for both of us as, hence the multiple celebratory cocktails! Our first stop was at Essenza Italian, a cozy restaurant situated on the corner of Devonshire and Crown Streets. Our window seats ensured maximum natural light for nice photos. Marinated sicilian green olives Garlic bread My cosmopolitan, her mojito We both gravitated towards the gnocchi; I had the dish with prawns, vodka, olives, basil, cream and cherry tomatoes. I had never tasted a pasta this incredible, the gnocchi was pillowy and the prawns were absolutely moreish. This is the dish to come back for! H had a glorious one full of broccoletti, tomato, olives, pine nuts and lemon nut butter. I’m excited to try out Essenza’s other pasta offerings because I’m sure they are just as incredible. Then it got dark, so after tasting the complimentary cookies we made our way to the bar across the road.
Monday, as I delightfully discovered, is $10 steak night at The Trinity Hotel in Surry Hills. Usually, any kind of $10 pub meal sends the blood in my veins icy-cold. You know the sort... Some trashy piece of rump steak that is as tough as a saddle and not nearly as flavoursome? This, however, was triumphant. A sirloin steak, tender and full of juice and grunt with chips and salad. Booyah!
Bottom Line: Great food, great atmosphere - a Surry Hills staple. Since we moved to the area Trinity has been a go to spot for us for casual lunches and dinners. The spacious outdoor (but covered) patio in the front of the bar is probably its most appealing quality. It's the perfect people-watching vantage point - right in the thick of things on the corner of Crown and Devonshire Streets. Aside from the ideal location, the food isn't bad either - and by Surry Hills standards it's rather affordable. Plus - they have White Rabbit, my favorite Aussie beer, on tap - WIN! Some of our favorites on the menu have been the King Prawn Spaghetti ($22), the Little Creatures Beer Battered Barramundi ($20), the Cottage Pie ($17) and the Sirloin Steak (25). There are so many other delicious looking items on the menu that we've yet to try. They also often have daily specials - $10 Steaks on Mondays! Lamb Special King Prawn Spaghetti $22 Angus Sirloin $25 Little Creatures Beer Battered Fish & Chips $20
There are plenty of very fancy and expensive restaurants to choose from along Crown Street these days but if you're looking for something more reasonably priced to fill you up which is still decent quality then Trinity Bar might be a good option to check

Trinity Bar's Monday special is their chargrilled sirloin steak. Priced at $25 on the normal bistro menu, it is only $10 with chips and salad or $12.50 with mash and vegetables on Mondays. Sauce options are gravy, mushroom & rosemary or peppercorn. The rules are simple - no alterations, no variations and no sauces on the side. We gleefully oblige. Sirloin steak with chips, salad and peppercorn sauce And to be honest, this is the best tasting $10 steak I've ever had. The steak is succulent and rich in flavour - they don't skimp on the quality of the sides or sauces either - it's real restaurant quality food at dirt cheap pub prices. Just make sure you get ther
Good late steak for a pub. Came here later on a Sunday night which is good to see the restaurant is still open until 10.30pm which is unique for Sydney.
There was also a wide selection of beers from the sydney craft festival.
Good for a late Sunday casual dinner and a few beers for the bear. Recommended !
Roast Cauliflower, Sweet Potato Salad. Vego
Always an old trusty fav, great trivia as well!. This place is honestly one of the best pubs in the area, the food is good, the staff are nice and the trivia is the best in the area by far! I really recommend this place, its one of our trusty old fav pubs!
Food is always amazing and staff are lovely!. Two words: crab burger. It is to die for.
Local favourite. I love The Trinity - it is my local and has been for years. The staff have to be the best thing about the bar, so welcoming and will do anything they can for you. They look like they really enjoy working there which adds to the atmosphere. The food is amazing - I have never had a bad meal. My favourite would have to be the squid salad and the steak. Also there have been some really interesting new additions to the menu recently which have gone down a storm. Great place to bring friends, the drinks are flowing, great music and a good outdoor deck for the smokers. Shout out to the guys at the bar - Luke and Rhyse.
This is outstanding! Amazing value, delicious etc etc
How have I lived in sydney 10 years and never been here???
Great drinks and food. We had the squid with jalapeno aioli and the chicken schnitzel special. The chicken schnitzel(s) were huge and were real chicken as opposed to those chicken nugget styles. However the best was the squid! A generous portion for my $14 and the flavours were sensational. Very full on, but just beautiful, and very uncharacteristic of most squid dishes. The Green Tea Fairy cocktail was quite good, and the shooters were amazing! After a cocktail, two shooters and the schnitzel and squid we paid just $54. Highly recommend!
Great food, lovely venue, chefs are quick & efficient, front house service needs improving
English style pub with typical pub food. Friendly staff and good value for money.
Amazing Food and Service. Went there last Thursday with a group of mates and we were greeted by a very friendly young manager who managed to find us a table for six on a busy night very quickly. He sat us down and brought us over some menus, We ordered the daily deal on that night which was the chicken schnitzel for 12.50, bargain ! along with the BBQ ribs , chicken curry and beef and Guinness pie. The food here was amazing ! everyone in our group loved the food and we all had a great night there and we will definitely be coming back! The atmosphere and service here was second to none and will be highly recommending Trinity Bar to many others ! :)
Great ribs, sweet sauce with a little kick & the meat fell straight off the bone. We'll be back again.
The Best Bar/Pub. The Trinity Bar has wonderful staff and a great Publican. I have been going to the Trinity for many years and is my local. Food is fantastic with large portions and always tastes great. Value for money and much more. I would highly recommend this establishment to all.
I love a pub that takes $2 off the price of the meal if you don't want chips! I never want them but the price is never reduced!!
When is cold outside.... Try the Cottage Pie or the Beef and Guinness Pie: they are fantastic.
What a Pub!
Still haven't found a better $10 steak then the Trin.
This is my local and by far my favourite pub in Sydney. Everything on the menu is great but the I agree, the waygu burger is the best burger in Sydney!
Great local with good value meals. Monday night steaks for $10 are brilliant value. Try the wagyu burger which is one of the best in Sydney.
The food and drinks were average but the venue is a nice place with beautiful decor to sit down with friends. We had the Sunday roast for $24 which were a generous portion and overall tasted ok. If I was to be particular, the Pork belly didn’t have a crispy skin (and pretty fat on the inside), the beef roast was a little dry on the inside and the Yorkshire pudding was a bit dense. We were feeling curious and tried the watermelon sangria which tasted a bit strange, maybe next time will stick with the usual pub beers. Service was friendly and overall I would say still a good experience.
Good pub with lots of food and drinks options for everyone. Looks, feels and is the sort of place where you could spend a whole afternoon with your mates
Love the Trinity! Beautiful pub with loads of character. Great outdoor but covered terrace. Reasonably costed with a good selection of beers. Food is delicious. Staff are friendly & fun. Highly recommend!
Staff were extremely friendly. We were seated upstairs and the place had heaps of natural lighting, my friends and I all love the feel of the restaurant.
I had ordered the roast pork and my friends had the roast beef. Food I would not rate as high and not the best Sunday roast Ive had. Would definitely recommend if you're going there for a drink.
the interior is SUPER pretty but the menu is very pricey, truffle mushroom arrancini tho 11/10
