Annandale Hotel

The Annandale is a clean and pleasant pub to hang around in. Its interior hits all the contemporary pub-furnishing trends: elegant lighting arrangements, exposed brick, and mis-matched vintage furniture. The main bar is bright and shiny and the back bar is focused on craft beer with taps dispensing brews from Young Henrys and Rocks Brewing Co.

Food includes toasted sandwiches (jerk chicken with ale cheddar, chicken sausage, jerk sauce and pickled onions) right through to pork buns and empanadas. Plus there are pub standards such as fish and chips, burgers, nachos and steaks. It also does breakfast, serving hash-brown buckets, waffles and various fry-ups.

The band room is committed to hosting live music three or four times a week with a focus on acoustic, solo and bluegrass performances.
