The Verdict
Do not be fooled by the Butcher shop exterior, although many have fallen into this trap. Earl’s Juke Joint may look strange upon first inspection, but good times are guaranteed once you step foot in this Newtown cocktail bar. Dimly lit and adorned with old time photos, this place gets packed out every night – so get in early or prepare to be patient. There’s a slight American theme here; plenty of cocktails and a selection of craft beers.

Bar Demo
Bar Demo is a late-night vinyl bar in Newtown, designed for lovers of a well-crafted drink without the fuss. Owners Claudia Morgan and Olly Churcher (Ex-Double Deuce Lounge) are bartenders by trade, so there’s faith to be had in their curated 60-bottle wine list and seasonally crafted cocktails. The venue itself has grown from their joint experiences working and sipping in some of Sydney’s best bars—Morgan says “we wanted somewhere open late where we could buy a bottle without sitting down for a meal, sink some martinis, listen to some interesting music or have a dance”. Bar Demo certainly checks all of the boxes: open 5pm—midnight, Wednesday—Saturday, with no full kitchen but a dedicated menu for snacks, and a soundtrack of full albums played on vinyl, with each night featuring a curated selection of tunes.
