East Sydney Hotel

East Sydney Hotel The whiteboard outside the East Sydney Hotel says it all “Yes this is the pub with no pokies”. A gold-plated virtue according to its many and varied loyal clientele, as publican Harald Muller points out: “The trouble with pokies is, that the people who can least afford it, play them.” Add to this a ‘No TV policy’ (except for annual Melbourne Cup) you have a character filled bar good or drinking, eating and talking. Or as one review put it:
“A delightful, tiny and well-loved hotel with no pokies or blondwood floos. Opened in 1856, it is the oldest continually licensed drinking hole in Sydney.”
The last country pub in the Sydney Metropolitan area. Historically restored. Open fireplaces, wooden floor with copper nails. Our business is quality draft beer, restaurant quality food, and accommodation in the old-fashioned country tradition. Interesting mixed clientele. No pokies.
