About The Duke of Clarence

Hidden in the heart of the CBD, an 18th century inspired London tavern dedicated to cocktails, cask ale and unmistakeably British eats.

The Duke of Clarence is a pub in Sydney, New South Wales. It is listed at Laneway, 152/156 Clarence St, Sydney NSW 2000, which places it among the local businesses of Sydney that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

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.

Opening hours are published for 2 days a week. On most of those days it is open 11:30 am–1 am. Hours in Australia do change around public holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (02) 8999 3850. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a mobile. Its website is thedukeofclarence.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

Customers rate it 4.4 out of 5 on Google across 2,221 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded pubs & bars in Sydney.

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. Australian addresses list the street number, suburb, state abbreviation and postcode, and Sydney follows the same pattern; a number like 2/411 means unit 2 at number 411. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Excellent food! The roasted potatoes as starters was utterly divine. Staff are friendly and helpful, even tho the place is packed. It's a little hidden in the back street, so it's perfect as it can get rambunctious. Pls make reservations

Food 4.5 🌟service 5 stars for a pub! The Sunday roast is out of this world. Its a great size! It comes with veggies. Carrots ,broccolini,the best potato’s the gravy was amazing! The peas was a little hard! Yorkshire pudding was really good. Soak up the gravy nicely. The cauliflower was so yummy! I also loved the Brussel sprouts

Firstly, the positive is that the decor and vibe were fantastic! However, the food was underwhelming. The roast beef was very dry, the porchetta lacked flavour and the yorkshire pudding tasted like a microwaved supermarket version. Fortunately, the gravy was great and really helped make everything else passable. Desserts were good overall, though the ice-cream that came with the sticky date pudding was terrible and ruined what would otherwise have been an excellent dessert. A better wine list would’ve help elevate the experience. Service was neither here nor there - they took our order and delivered the food and that was about it.

Had a great Sunday roast here. Recommend booking if you can as the space filled up very quickly. Great portions, good sides, a little expensive but its location in the city and the ambience make up for it.

Sublime beef roast with Yorkshire pudding. Can’t wait to come back and try their other roasts, and their steaks and scotch eggs. I asked the bartender to recommend a gin and he asked me if I liked botanical, fragrant gins. I said yes. He gave me a Hickson’s infused with Sydney oyster shells - it was amazing! I went and bought a bottle later that week. Great atmosphere, great service, great food. Book a table if you’re more than one.
