The food is great and reasonably priced, and great service. the beer is well priced and if you are a member you get cheaper drinks and more benifits

Not an huge WOW factor but definitely a new lunchtime haunt. If you are looking for a nice relaxed atmosphere with a good basic bistro menu this is your pick. They have gluten-free and vegetarian options and are quick with service. Book a table - it gets busy!

The upstairs bar and dining room at The Point Hotel is more like the lounge room of a sunny beach house and a very comfortable place to catch up with friends over a cocktail or a meal. The downstairs rooms are cozier and more for winter evenings. Food is good and staff are friendly, but the ambiance is the best feature of the Point.

Approximate cost: $15

A great little pub in Pyrmont. As a "non-local", it was fairly easy to find and had a great atmosphere.

They are happy to book the upstairs for functions. There is a balcony section (for smokers) and an inside section.

The staff are lovely and they shake a mean Cosmopolitan.
