Great air con inside, especially in the hot weather. Prompt service if you're ordering a drink. Great, terrific food when they come as it does get rather busy. But you need to be very patient. Waited 40mins for the food, was told to wait another 10 or so minutes.

Bristol Arms Hotel is part of the Oscars Hospitality Group with over 26 sister and brother venues within NSW. Few venues stand the test of time in #sydney and Bristol Arms Hotel formerly known as The Retro is one of those venues. The venue has three different eating spaces. #1 The Rooftop Bar #2 The Public Bar #3 The Bristol Kitchen The Rooftop Bar with views toward Barangaroo is a large, open bright space perfect for functions, private events, a good after-work stiff drink and weekend fun. On this mid-week night, I dined on the rooftop with fellow Sydney foodies @jimmywongeats @justin_time2eat and @everycrumb for a #boysnightout. We dined in the inside section of the rooftop close to the bar on one of the high tables. The venue manager and bartender were super nice. They helped us navigate our way through the bistro menu and cocktail selection. Entrees: Crumbed mozzarella sticks chipotle, parmesan Garlic prawns flatbread Peking duck cigars sweet chili sauce Salt & Pepper calamari tartare Mains: Rump steak 25ogr salad, fries Country beef red wine sausage mash, onion gravy Beef goulash pappardelle Steak-Frites w herb butter Wine: Fat Bastard Malbec Mendoza, Argentina

The place is consist of 5 levels - underground , retro 1 and 2 (level 1 and 2 pretty much) being nightclub (apparently retro 1 is used as dance teaching area during weekdays), ground level (where you enter) has bar and TAB facility and finally rooftop lounge with smoking terrace. Rooftop is quite amazing as other people have mentioned. Beer selections at the bar tap is exceptional (Big Shed Golden Stout time - literally tastes like golden gaytime. So much happiness!). Fod has came out relatively quick compared to other reviews and it did come out quite nice! (Consider i paid $14. Oh by the way from Monday to Wednesday there is $14 menu and steak is OK inclucded). Happy hour goes from 5:30pm to 7:30pm Monday to Thursday. In conclusion i would say this place is mad place to pay a visit on weekdays if you ever get a day off.

It has a really nice roof bar, nice snack menu, good selection of beers and is not far from the train. A great place to meet. Home to Sydney Harbour Runners too!!
