Loved the vibe of this small but amazing place tucked down a side street but just a short stroll from our hotel. Toby(?) was incredibly helpful and the food and cocktails perfect for 2 weary travellers after long days of walking around a hot city We lived it down much that we came back again the following evening Highly recommend as a real hidden gem and perfect Aussie hospitality from start to finish
