The verdict

Hidden in a small lane behind Oxford Street, Shady Pines Saloon would be concealed, that is, if it didn't always have a queue out the front. When entering this dimly lit space your eyes immediately dart to the taxidermied wall hangings giving it a Wild West, Texan feel. With a serious cocktail list and complimentary baskets of peanuts, it's an easy spot to get lost for the night.

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.
