The Flinders Bar- Surry Hills

If you’re strolling along Crown St, Sydney, be sure to turn off onto Flinders St for your perfect Social.Aperitif at Flinders Bar.



Behind the neon ‘cold beer’ flashing light is a humble, quirky bar- a trendy hide-away (without being too pretentious).
From the minute you walk in the door you’ll be whisked into a warm, inviting oasis. The bar is littered with paraphernalia including artworks, stuffed animals, quotes, poems- your eyes will be kept busy for hours.

The staff at the bar are super friendly and always up for a chat- if your stuck deciding what it is you want to drink, they’ll quiz you with a few simple questions and within a couple of minutes you’ll be happy as Larry with the drink of your dreams. They’ll even let you engrave your name into the bar- that is, if you can find a spot next to the thousands of other visitors and locals.

It’s recommended to get into this Sydney bar early, especially on weekends, as it’s under high demand, and the line does accumulate (it’s so you’re not all packed in like sardines). It’s well worth the wait though, once you’re in, the late night dance floor will have everyone kicking up their heels!

Drink: 
Why not kick the night off with a ‘pickle back’- a shot of Jamesons whiskey followed by a shot of pickle juice. Bound to tickle your taste buds…

Recommended dinner options afterwards: Right upstairs- The Duke Bistro, where the quirkiness continues…
