The Verdict

Burgers and the beach go together just about as well and fish and chips by the beach, which is why we’re loving Sydney bar, JB & Sons in Freshwater.

The bar and burgers named after local scallywag John “JB” “Papi” Burgess, who enjoyed all of the unimportant things in life. Five different burgers are on offer including the ‘Son of a Gun,’ a Southern fried chicken burger with slaw and hot sauce, or go for a great combo of fish and burger with the ‘Fishy.’

Stacks of snacks are available, jalapeno poppers with five cheeses, tacos and nachos. To wash it all down there’s a range of local brews, wine and seasonal cocktails. Don’t leave without dessert... The sundae with chocolate and vanilla ice cream, Oreo, pretzel, Reese’s and salted caramel sauce is high on our list.

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.
