The Oaks Hotel

The Oaks Hotel is an iconic pub, beer garden and bar & grill located in the heart of Sydney's North Shore. Since 1885, people have gathered under the magnificent oak tree in the outside garden to enjoy a refreshing drink, succulent steak on the BBQ or pot of mussels. The hotel's three function areas can host gatherings from 15 to 80 guests, with food packages available for every budget and no room hire charge. With its great location just 10 minutes north of the harbour bridge, The Oaks Hotel has been a favourite meeting place for locals and tourists for many years.

Some things just make sense…

A beer with mates on the way home.
Chanting in the sports bar.
A couple too many wines by the fire.
