While Pyrmont has its fair share of tradie pubs and average sushi restaurants, there's little in the way of bar culture. Which is surprising, as it's a growth area of small businesses and young couples with cash to burn. Enter Gallon
Here’s an unfortunate fact about the drinking culture in the Pyrmont postcode: most is done in very average pubs. Harris Street’s Gallon is a welcome exception to the rule. The bar sprawls across two rooms and a spacious courtyard that fills up fast on a Friday evening, and they’ve done a great job with the fitout, accentuating high ceilings with a faux staircase that runs up the far wall and big, classic wrought-iron and wood furniture. The drinks are good, too, as long as you are happy with beer or wine (or a St Helier pear cider if you’re feeling fruity). The wines are mostly local drops, with a couple of Kiwi nods, and beer drinkers can down a longie or two. Couple a glass of wine with some olives or a pizza. There isn’t anything groundbreaking happening at Gallon in terms of food and plonk, but for an after-work tipple, we recommend giving it a go.
