The verdict
An oasis in the heart of Sydney’s bustling Chippendale, the Rooftop Pool and Bar at The Old Clare Hotel will leave you well equipped for a lazy summer session. Plus, with yoga, boxing classes and personal training available to the whole neighbourhood and Sydney’s skyline as your backdrop, Sunday morning has never looked this good.
With a bar menu from Kensington Social’s Matt Fairhurst, you can expect refreshing summer cocktails and ice-cold beer (both available on tap). If alcohol isn’t your jam, then there are plenty of fresh juices and non-alcoholic spritzers to choose from before taking a dip in the 14 metre lap pool.

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.
