5 Star Review by Chona Navarro
The service was absolutely impeccable and the vibe awesome. Loved how everyone made you feel like your custom was valued; all four of the team last night were friendly and up for a chat over delicious cocktails. Love having this place in my backyard. Who needs the city when places like Fortunate Son are so close by!

5 Star Review by Daniel Rayner
Amazing. This is a cracker of a local bar. The staff and owner are exceptionally warm and friendly and the service overall is tops. They know their product, they know what makes for a great vibe and they make you feel welcome, like its been your local forever. Good selection of beers, great cocktails and classic tunes. This is a bar you want to come back to.
5 Star Review by Justin Flaherty
Dylan and the team should be congratulated for delivering what is probably the best bar experience in the inner west. Highly recommend!

Most attentive and friendly service I've ever received from a bar - the bartenders were always quick to make drinks, and even quicker to notice when I was out and might want another. Their cocktail menu was massive, and everything I tried was delicious!

Where should I start? Actually just went there because I was searching for a job, but ended up having the best (even if very short) evening in a long time! Even if I was without any friends I never felt lonely because the staff and manager are just awesome and do their absolute best to make you feel comfortable! Had some very nice conversations and even a beer and tequila shot for free, which was pretty awesome haha. Great people, great vibe, even better beer and cocktails- so just go there and try yourself :)
