Great place, warm, friendly staff, great for people watching, and let's face it, there is always something to watch in kings cross. Drink price is the normal that you would pay anywhere else maybe even a little cheaper. Three levels, live music on weekends, good lunch food but can take a while to get to ya if busy
Best service from Daniel!! Great at making cocktails and super friendly. 5 stars! He made us tourists feel really welcome xx
5* for a place you don't really like? 5* for a non merivale pub? This is a solotel pub...who? Bruce Solomon is the quiet achiever of our pub scene...the sheaf and the Opera Bar are 2 of this countries biggest, and just 2 of his yuuuge stable. They have things in common. Efficiency on steroids, decent eats and something community orientated. Here, it's the kings cross theatre. It's a wonderful, small theatre company, showcasing our best new talent. Go there! Also contributing to the 5* review was this unexpectedly excellent spinach Dahl, rich with curry leaves and great complexity. The paratha bread was flaky and in good shape. The ability to add stuff, in this case a perfectly boiled egg, has started me thinking this annoying order via app from your table thing has legs.
Thanks Bruce. I still really don't like this place, and you should serve food for as long as you serve booze, but the plusses really work.
Like many bars I've been to since living in Sydney, this place is not necessarily good to look at from the outside but once you get inside you can see where the money is spent. Downstairs has a decent sized bar and seating area with big screens for the sports. Whereas upstairs is a pretty smart bar setup with a good terrace, including some more secluded small balconies. Decent choice of beers, good looking menu.
I had a really pleasant 2 hours here today. The staff are not just nice, they are friendly and super polite. The young man with the Mambo t-Shirt was super impressive. He’s what society needs these days.
Footy on. Price fair. Bar Man nice. Toilet hand dryers not working g and no paper towels. I'm from Ireland, Europe. What is it it in Australia with have hygienic toilets
Even though no air con ( heho that's life) it was s thrilling play. It's always smooth sailing at KCH - no issues. Young guy checking me in at door ( Max?) was so good. I arrived in a state ( for no reason) and he was genuinely calming. You don't expect that these days. Esp in The Cross
