We had a wonderful time at this newly opened outlet of the shirt bar. Super friendly owners greeted everyone personally and made sure guests were good taken care of. Unique combination of shirt and suits shop (check it out, really cool designs Australian designed and manufactured), whisky bar with and incredible selection of international whiskey brands among other high quality wines and spirits and restaurant. I chose from the bar and specials menu sweet potato fries (super crisp!), vegetarian tacos with avocado and mushrooms (little spicy with chili mayonnaise), coconut chickens salad (fresh and unique, perfect summer dish!) and hummus with grain fed ground beef, pomegranate and pine kerne...
The food on offer here is essentially bar food with a different twist. There's no potato chips and steak but there are sweet potato chips, very generous sized burgers, salads and nibbles. My friend had the lamb ribs and I had the chicken ribs. The lamb is crumbed with the sauce on the side which was unexpected and very different. My companion is a big fan of ribs and wasn't impressed but others might be. I was curious as to what chicken ribs would be but I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of meat, the coating was spicy and very good. There were five ribs in the serving I got which was a hearty snack size.
Popped in for a coffee the other day. Was quiet and needed a quick coffee.. With only 1 person in front of me I waited an eternity for a coffee. Coffee was also burnt so not a good experience if your here for coffee.. Lady taking my order was very disinterested also.. Lots of other options in the area for coffee. Will return to try their alcohol.. Cant burn that :)
We only came in for a couple of coffees and was told it was table service, which is nice. The woman took our order, and then we waited....and waited....and waited. We were just about to leave when it finally arrived. The coffee was fine but the staff seem - and there were lots of them - to be more interested in being hip than being customer focussed.

Valentines DayBooked at last minute - delighted. Vibe is really cool. Different feel with shirt bar and huge range of whiskies. Not a whisky drinker. No problem. Some good craft beers. But we had a great bottle of Malbec. Food was wonderful!Service was very engaging. Only new - give it a try. They deserve success. I'll be back.
A very popular new bar with an interesting list of whiskies and a number of craft beers.Staff here were very friendly and helpful. The food looked interesting and this place was full of people having a great time. A fun place to relax after work or start your night from.
Worn out looking at all the sites especially the lights. Popped into the shirt bar for a light supper of wine beer and cheese. Staff very friendly and helpful. Plenty of variety on the menu and wine list. Handy location for very popular part is Sydney.
Nice cafe style restaurant that also sells business shirts (sister shop of Shirt Bar not far away in Sussex Lane). Nice, fresh food and good coffee. Super friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. Recommended.

Interested and friendly staff who appeared pleased to be there. A rare thing in Sydney. The tailoring is a great blend and not a pretentious strap-on novelty. Don't just grab a beer, try the whiskies.
