Why it's worth checking out
The Garden sits at the Argyle Stores on Argyle Street in The Rocks, on the harbour foreshore in the heart of Sydney. A 4.6 rating from 40 reviews marks it as a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is a characterful bar in a historic setting — a lovely spot for a drink, a catch-up and a bit of atmosphere, in the charming heritage surrounds of The Rocks. Its location, close to the Harbour Bridge and Circular Quay, makes it easy to fold into a night out.
Drinks lists, events and trading hours change over time, and it gets busy on weekends. To be sure of a spot and the latest details, it's worth checking directly with the venue before you plan your visit.
