What people say
The Royal Exhibition Hotel located on Chalmers Street in Sydney is a perfect spot for those looking for a great pub and restaurant experience. The venue offers an indoor and outdoor dining area, as well as a beautiful beer garden, making it an ideal place to enjoy a quiet beer or have a big night out with friends. The wine selection at the Royal Exhibition Hotel is impressive, with Wine Wednesdays being particularly popular among patrons. The Cabernet Sauvignon with a dollop of Malbec has been matured for 16 months in French barriques, offering a deep and vibrant purple color with plums, mulberries, ripe black fruits, and cassis notes. The Nugan Estate Single Vineyard Shiraz is another excellent choice that is rich and full-bodied, bursting with juicy plums, chocolate, and hints of black pepper. For those looking for something different, the Aperol Spritz cocktail is light and refreshing with an aromatic citrusy taste. Despite recent events in Surry Hills, the Royal Exhibition Hotel remains open for business as usual. So why not stop by for happy hour and grab a feed before heading to watch Swans v Carlton tonight at 7:50 pm kickoff? With trains and trams running as normal, there's no excuse not to visit this fantastic venue!
