The Trinity

The Trinity is a long-standing Surry Hills pub at the corner of Crown and Devonshire streets, bringing the community together since 1882. Its character draws on the venue’s Irish connection to Trinity College Dublin, while the setting has a contemporary, welcoming feel. It suits a casual drink after work, a relaxed meal, or an evening built around live sport on the big screens.

Food is centred on modern Australian pub fare, with familiar classics alongside a few less traditional options. The menu includes share plates such as arancini, chicken wings, garlic prawns and salt and pepper calamari, followed by dishes including Beef & Guinness Pot Pie, chicken schnitzel, fish and chips, rump steak and prawn linguine. There are also burgers, a steak sandwich, nachos, salads and bowls, plus a kids menu with choices such as cheeseburger and chips, chicken goujons and chips, and pasta. A Sunday roast is listed among the venue’s regular offerings, while the bar has Guinness on tap and an extensive drinks selection spanning cocktails, beer and wine.

Downstairs, The Trinity has the easygoing feel of a classic sports pub, with a bar, beer garden and casual dining space. Upstairs, Tilly May’s adds an open-air rooftop setting with indoor and outdoor areas, high tables, warm lighting, exposed ceilings, rich timber details and vintage touches. Its drinks focus includes cocktails, and the space is designed for a more elevated social occasion without losing the relaxed pub atmosphere. The rooftop is also available for functions, with spaces suited to birthdays, baby showers, hens parties, cocktail events, intimate dinners and larger group celebrations.

The venue’s mix of spaces makes it flexible for different kinds of visits. Solo drinkers and small groups can settle at the bar, while friends can meet for food, cocktails or a match screened live and loud. Families are catered for with a dedicated kids menu, and private-event areas give larger groups somewhere to gather. With its Surry Hills location, Irish pub influence, sports focus, rooftop bar and broad pub menu, The Trinity covers both straightforward local pub visits and more organised celebrations.
