Natalie McDonaldAugust 23, 2016Really good pub food served here, the pie, burgers, steak & parmi were delicious! Casual place, cosy, upstairs more chilled.
Alastair WallNovember 25, 2013Has to be the best steak from a pub in Sydney and it's only $12.50. All food is $12.50 tastes amazing and good size quantity.
The lamb shanks are still seriously on point as are the T-bones. Get into it!
Alex GoodenJune 25, 2012Eat across the road at Mohr Fish. They let you bring it in to the pub if you order takeaway. Bit pricier but way better than the Shakey's kitchen.
Tina FooMarch 6, 2015Salt and Pepper calamari was delish. They are little rings of calamari. Tasty and crispy.- Food is great. Prices have gone up a bit but things range from $12.50 to $15? Still pretty good for good pub grub. Beer is pretty standard.
Upstairs rocks but during the week you want to get there before 7 to get a good seat. The chicken parma is my favorite, dont listen to that other guy!
Daniela MilanesiAugust 24, 2013All the meals are 12.50$, and definitely good value for money! I highly recommend it :)- Willem Reyners TayNovember 21, 2009Best $10 meals in Sydney. The recent upgrade of the upstairs was welcome, but it has reduced seating capacity. Thursdays seem like the busiest nights and you might have to wait around for a seat.
- scrange downingJuly 4, 201020 meals for under $10, tastiest pub grub in Sydney by far and double happy hour Mon-Fri makes the shakey the best pub around.
Chris Walker-BushSeptember 25, 2011Great $12.50 meals. One of the best steaks you'll ever find. Read more
- Beautifully cooked lamb shanks, tender, moist, falling off the bone....lovely. Ten sheets? I'll have two!
Cubby BearAugust 17, 2010Great food at cheap prices, some of the bar staff need to learn how to smile though!
Kenneth MionnetNovember 28, 2010Bar service is filled with backchat and incompetence. Well-priced meals. Upstairs is a lovely parlour-town
tamzin taylorOctober 29, 2010Play trivia here and get to know the interesting characters & locals from across the road.
Markus T.February 10, 2012What a bunch of fucking loosers! The cricket is on but the tv is not gonna happen. Don't got there if you wanna enjoy a proper Aussie pub!
- Daniel BakerNovember 27, 2009Dont get the crumbed chicken schnitzel, it's dodgy. I recommened anything else on the menu though!
Mikerism BMarch 13, 2010Watch out for the swarm of dorks from Host especially the rotating mayors. Also, Michael G loves doing poos here.
- The upstairs bar is like your very own pocket Edwardian parlour.
- You can place your order through interpretive dance. Try it!
don't get the salt and pepper squid. tasteless and gluggy.
