A commanding corner position and century-old wisdom give the Australian Heritage Hotel its classic pub status. Add to that a rooftop terrace with impressive views and plenty of outdoor seating and this is also a rad choice for a few quiet ales on a balmy Sydney evening. In contrast, head inside when the temperature dips. Original 1913 décor gives punters a cosy drinking experience.
As the name suggests, this pub is all about Australia, and that means beer; lots of Australian beer. NSW’s KB Lager rubs shoulders with Alpha Pale Ale from Matilda Bay in Victoria, the Hazards Ale from the Wineglass Bay Brewery in Tasmania, and the smooth and very drinkable McLaren Vale Ale from South Australia. For those who like to travel, order a ‘beer flight’ and you’ll get a sample of five beers from an Australian region.
The menu gives the Australian theme a go, too. Pizzas come with kangaroo, emu and crocodile, while there’s also grilled barramundi or salmon fillets for those of you who want to stay clear of national-emblem fauna.
