The verdict
Situated nicely outside of the hustle and bustle of the city, in Temperance Lane (near the Apple store on George Street, right next to Sneakerboy), this bar-cum-restaurant has been open since early 2010, evidence of its popularity. And you can see why: the owners are committed to integrity in every aspect, whether it be the second-hand furniture, whole and organic foods and wines, or focus on recycling.
The cocktail list is extensive, with a bar menu to fill you up, but if you're after something more substantial head upstairs to the Eating House for an ever-changing food menu.

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.
