Jayne 👻 HalseyNovember 1, 2013Great food and beer, but as they brew their own beers right behind the bar, the place smells pretty funky. It gets louuud as its constantly being overrun by big groups of tourists on walking tours :-/
Jesus VidalDecember 23, 2015My favourite is the Three Sheets pale ale, but all their beers are awesome!

Iain CarmichaelNovember 30, 2018Had some very nice beer, I mean really nice. The Peking poppi is a particular memory. The pub was crazy busy though. Friday after work on a lovely summer day so no surprise 😁
Paul FarrellMarch 18, 2015Great beers, decent food and an amazing cheeseboard. The fire in winter is extra special, but anytime of year this place is worth a visit.
D PotterMay 7, 2016I had the incredible Ploughman's Platter and a few pints of the Three Sheets pale ale. Highly recommend!
Keith GreywoodJanuary 10, 2017Decent selection of beers brewed on the premises and they do paddles. I rated the Victory bitter, as was a bit nostalgic for Brit beers :)
George WestcottFebruary 29, 2016Awesome pub, such a lovely feel about it. Pies were awesome. I don't like craft beers but my mate rated them. Good service.
Tom WOctober 28, 2020I get big UK country pub vibes from here and the beer is also really good. Really friendly staff too!
Tracey NOctober 26, 2013Brew their own beers- yummy!!! Meals arent huge at lunch. Clean loos. Check out the antique bootles and general surrounds. A number of pub crawl types rock in- loud snd annoying; but dont stay long
Try the Conservas Ortiz Anchovies followed by the Cloudy Bay Clams in xo as a main. An experience in taste well worth experiencing.
Todd WeisrockAugust 21, 2014Great beer, fantastic chicken curry, and cute bartenders. Seemed mostly locals and some tourists. A must stop!!
kristen chewOctober 8, 20153 Sheets may have been the best beer I've ever tasted... and Nelson's Blood is also delicious!
Birgul EmertAugust 21, 2017Great for Sunday afternoon catch ups close to the harbour and the beer range is fantastic..
Simon DudleyJune 30, 2012Proper pub this. Excellent beer. Real pints. Superb atmosphere and what I hope is an excellent Curry house 50 feet away. Lovely
The pub with the longest continuous license in Australia (not the oldest). Open fire, brewery in the back, Sunday roasts and a ploughman's lunch - a taste of old Sydney
Tim KnightJanuary 28, 2010This is a good solid proper pub... you know, with a solid Oak bar and serving Ales in pint and half pint measures. Try a pint of Three Sheets. Great for English who miss proper pubs and proper beer.
Jason DennyJune 7, 2016Good vibes. Old flavour interior. Delicious beers on tap but avoid the cheese plate.
Neel HajareJanuary 12, 2020Perhaps notable as a local institution, but there’s certainly better beer to be had elsewhere
mortendkFebruary 15, 2013the beef pie with mash & gravy is superb top it with a Three sheets pint & your feel happy :)
- Phil SheardNovember 2, 2013Jolly good boozer. Quayle Ale is a nice easy session ale and Three Sheets is good too.
Inga BergmannJanuary 26, 2017Good for beers. Our steak sandwiches weren't that good but we're the potato wedges.
Tammy GordonOctober 4, 2011Loved drinking beers at this old pub - not too touristy, despite the history. My pick: Try a "3 Sheets" pale ale.- Great beer, food and wine. Still one of the best pubs in Sydney.
Summer RieslingOctober 20, 2011The beers here are amazing in this historic pub. Try one of each and then tap 'DONE' if you can still spell Riesling?
Jeff NivaMarch 8Oldest brewery in Sydney! Love the atmosphere, service and tasty beers! Cheers mate!
- Todd WeisrockAugust 22, 2014Great looking girls behind the bar, if you're into that sort of thing. Some very friendly. Some not.
DimitriSeptember 19, 2014Great ales, great location, great pub. Take your time and sample as many as you can...
Antony BergeotJuly 30, 2011Best beer on tap on Sydney! No secret why it's the oldest pub here. Try the Lord Nelson on tap
A WFebruary 19, 2012Try the Ploughmans, it's a bit special. Wash it down with a Quails Ale - proper!
Probably the best place in Sydney to sample beers brewed onsite. Clear an afternoon and don't drive.
- Chris ChinchillaJune 11, 2010Awesome on all fronts apart from a slightly vague member of the bar staff who ignored me, forgot my order and then under served the beer :-(
Lisa RowlinsonOctober 14, 2011Three Sheets beer is delicious!!!! Plus, best cider selection I have ever seen.

"The lads at Yh are crafting some fantastic beers. Hot tip: try their cider as well. It's a game changer amongst a sea of ordinary commercial ciders on the market. Take home a growler of SOMETHING!"
