Looking for Good Bars in Sydney on a Monday Night
I know it’s a bit of an unusual request, but are there any good bars open on a Monday night in Sydney? I’ll be flying in from the US and landing early Monday morning. If I have the energy, I’d love to check out some dive bars. Not looking for cocktail places—I’m more of a vodka and water kind of person!
Thanks in advance!
P.S. I’ll be heading to Brisbane on Tuesday evening, so I’m also open to bar recommendations for Tuesday night there!
No worries, I’ve got you covered! For a Monday night in Sydney, here are a few dive bars that you might enjoy:
The Old Hunter – Located in the CBD, it has a relaxed vibe and serves a variety of beers and spirits. The atmosphere is perfect for kicking back after a long flight.
The Excelsior Hotel – In Surry Hills, this bar has a laid-back feel and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It’s a great place to grab a drink and meet locals.
The Dove & Olive – Also in Surry Hills, this cozy spot offers a decent selection of beers on tap, and the friendly vibe makes it a good spot for a chill evening.
The Murph – Situated in Redfern, The Murph is a welcoming dive bar with a relaxed atmosphere. It’s not too far from the CBD, making it a great option if you’re looking to unwind.
Waywards – Located in Newtown, this bar has a casual vibe and often features live music. It’s a fun spot for a Monday with a good selection of drinks.
As for Brisbane, when you’re heading there on Tuesday, consider checking out:
