The Verdict
We’re suckers for a hidden bar, mainly because we really like to be the first ones to know everything about Sydney, and Fonz-themed bar, Fonzarellis is exactly that. It’s the kind of that that you’ve probably walked past every single day while trudging up Foveaux Street on your way to work. Keep an eye out for the neon blue sign next time you walk by and you’ll wonder how you’ve missed it so many times (probably because you’ve been too busy running for the train).
In keeping with the 1950’s, Happy Days theme, the bar is complete with jukebox, pinball machine and intimate booths lining each wall. The two-level bar is dimly lit, but it’s worth going to the trouble of reading the menu because they’re serving up cocktails like the Buddy Holly (classic amaretto sour with fresh OJ) and Correctamundo (Campari, SOlerno blood orange liqueur and fresh OJ). For food, you can expect fuss-free crowd pleasers, like jalapeno poppers, two hot dog options and arancini of tomato, peas and bocconcini risotto balls with pesto aioli.
Can you really go wrong with a hidden bar inspired by the smooth talking Fonz. Probs not, TBH.

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.
