Grandma's Bar, Sydney

25 October 2011, 02:35


NOM! So like, yeah I cut my hair haha I’m still not used to it and I can’t hide behind a curtain of hair no more! But the weather she be acting cray cray and with Summer just around the corner I thought it was time for a change :P


We were catching up at Grandma’s Bar (275 Clarence St, Sydney), a teensy tiny underground bar with a blink and you’ll miss it entrance. As well as a round of drinks (oh boy that Nuclear Daiquiri was insane), we also ordered a chicken jaffle ($7.50) which was filled with tender chicken pieces and oozing with cheese, perfect for dunking into the kewpie mayo.


The spaghetti jaffle ($7.50) was ordered more out of curiosity and was surprisingly tasty, the noodley innards doing their best to escape from its carbohydrate prison.


There was a toss up between trying Grandma’s daily punch or the Mai Tai which came in cute tiki mugs. But the Mai Tai won out because behold, THERE WAS FIRE!


PRETTY!



BAHAHAHAHA dinner and a show! Edit: This just in, Grandma’s Bar has won Timeout Sydney’s Best Small Bar 2011-12! Grats guys!

 

 

  1. Ha! Love those statue-esque whatever you call thems as well as your new haircut! (I went short recently too! Maybe it’s summer in the air.) I saw a review on this place but spaghetti jaffle wasn’t featured. Very cosy! :D

  4. A bar that serves fire sounds good to me. Probably impossible to get in, with the publicity that’s sure to come from the Time Out win. Oh well, one to check out in a few months’ time.

  5. Being a pyromaniac I love anything to do with flames. Only joking. The spag jaffle reminds me of tinned spag sambos I had in primary school!
