Being a digital marketing and PR agency in Surry Hills has allowed us to not only be walking distance from the bustling city, but also be arms reach from fantastic bars and pubs scattered throughout Surry Hills’ leafy streets. Surry Hills is notorious for having some of the best watering holes in Sydney and we agree. Whether it be a celebratory lunch or after work drinks, we have checked out a lot of great places to grab a drink and some food with co-workers and friends. The fact that we also offer restaurant PR in Sydney guarantees that we know what we are talking about. Here are our top 5 pubs and bars in Surry Hills that we love going to.

Their quirky and strong cocktails for Pirates, Land Lovers and Sailors are great for celebrating the end of the week and starting the weekend right. They also have a great selection of cheese and meat share platters to nibble on whilst sipping on your drink in their plush, candlelit booths.

Tokyo Bird

Tucked away off Commonwealth Street on Belmore Lane, this bar specialises in Japanese whiskeys, sake and beers. What we really love about this place is all the delicious Japanese bar snacks on offer like katsu nuggets with mayo dip, eggplant skewers glazed in sweet miso sauce and pork belly yakitori. This small bar is a little gem in Surry Hills and we’re pretty chuffed to have found it before the rest of Sydney has. Tokyo Bird is located on Commonwealth Street and Belmore Lane, Surry Hills NSW 2010. tokyobird.com.au
Fonzarelli’s

Complete with vintage booths, a jukebox and an original 1950s café racer, the bar creates Happy Days-inspired cocktails like Correctamundo, MF Chachi and Ritchie Valens. After a few of these you might be tempted to get swingin’ on the dancefloor, we don’t blame you. Head on over to Fonzarelli’s at 65/67 Foveaux Street, Surry Hills NSW 2010. fonzarellis.com.au
