About Old Mate's Place

Cocktail bar and rooftop

For a place to eat or drink, the questions that matter most are simple: is it open now, is it busy at peak hours, and does the menu suit the group you are bringing. Australian cafes tend to open early and close mid-afternoon, while restaurants and pubs run lunch and dinner services with a quiet spell in between, so an off-peak visit is worth a quick call. Card and tap-to-pay are accepted almost everywhere; some venues add a surcharge on weekends and public holidays.

The business lists hours on 2 days of the week. Typical hours are 4 pm–2 am. As with most places, expect changes around public holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. No phone number is listed for this business, so the Google Maps link on this page is the best route for directions and any contact details Google has on file. More information is available on its website, oldmates.sydney.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.7 out of 5 from 1,437 reviews, which is a strong result for a pub in Sydney and suggests consistent service.

Sydney is in New South Wales, on Australia's east coast, where summers are warm and humid, winters are mild and businesses keep to standard hours year-round with the usual public-holiday changes. Getting around Sydney is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy centres, and most suburban shops have their own car park. Public transport and ride-share apps such as Uber and DiDi operate across New South Wales's larger cities.

Did not try the food here but the cocktails were amazing! Tried 4 between the 2 of us and were blown away. The place itself was nice when it was a bit quiet. But popular place will definitely get crowded, thankfully not enough for me to have difficulty chatting. The vibe of the place was nice too. Great and friendly staff.

OMG! What a find! Oops, maybe I shouldn't be sharing this hidden bar. I had the perfect Martini, enjoying the autumn evening. Then I had another, just to be sure. Old Mate's is a good for a couple, maybe a foursome. Make sure you book ahead if you want to bring along more friends. I loved the vibe and the awesome service.

What a beautiful discovery, we came to Sydney for our anniversary, and I had explored bars close to where we were staying. Old Mates was the last bar, we visited, and we were blown away by the atmosphere, the staff, whose care and attention to detail, and interaction with patrons was genuine and ultra friendly, which encouraged us to come back, for a subsequent visit, upon which we were greeted by our names. Highly recommend, though I would like to keep this bar a secret, we will return every time we visit Sydney for special occasions.

It’s such an amazing bar. The menu is designed around a book theme, which made choosing drinks really fun, and all the cocktails were absolutely delicious. Out of all the music I heard in Australia, this place had the best playlist, lots of old-school hip hop and a young, hip vibe. The bar was packed on Saturday night, and all the staff were incredibly friendly.
