The verdict

Summer Hill has been picking up the pace in recent months, opening up a string of uber-trendy restaurants, bars and cafes to be enjoyed by locals and encourage us to get out of our comfort zones a bit more.

New Sydney bar The Temperance Society does just that and more. Serving up delicious cocktails, seemingly endless charcuterie options, and endless banter, this really is the place to be.

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.
