T Bar

This was my local for two years. The food is great quality, and the building facilities itself are great.
It’s however, owned by Woolworths, at time of writing, which destroyed it. When they bought the business, it essentially became one part fancy restaurant (which is great), one part sports bar — the T-​Bar. This is where non-​dinner patrons mostly hang out, and you’ll find your locals having a laugh with each other here.
There’s something wrong if 95% of your T-​Bar customers are outside in the smoking area. It could be that they’re socialising, but another key reason is to avoid the music and saturation of «the games.» The bar is coated in advertising too, which makes me sad, and the last bar area to close where you won’t annoy diners is the pokies room.
The bar closes at midnight, I’m fairly sure. Seems I’m always still there when they want to close. Once during the week (Thursday, I recall) we were there celebrating my birthday in the T-​Bar when we were told to move into the restaurant at 9pm! That was disappointing, as then we didn’t feel that comfortable sitting among diners when we just wanted to have drinks and be ourselves. Maybe that was just my reflection.

This is a cool old pub. It’s still got the old brick façade but the refurb it’s had takes it to a different place. The 120 year old pub used to be more homey, but now has a sleek new feel. I like that’s it’s pretty open plan. The T-​Bar is the place to go for a few drinks and a game of pool. The eatery — and they call it a café here — offers a bistro style menu as good as any pub touting its bistro or restaurant. Try the $ 15 lunch steak.

The Stones Corner Pub located right under the Stones Corner Hotel is a great bar/​bistro. There are 16 beers on tap, a great wine selection and a great cocktail selection. They have daily happy hours and other deals on food and drinks that vary depending on the day and the deal, some of these include buy one main meal and get the second one for 5 $.
The bar/​bistro is great for a few drinks after work or for a romantic meal for two. The outside area is perfect during spring and summer nights when the weather is good and for those who enjoy people watching it’s the perfect winter daytime spot. They have live music nights on Thursdays and Fridays from about 7 pm onwards boasting some great local acts. They are open from 7 am to 2am daily so really any time you want to stop in is fine. It’s also located right across the road from the Stones Corner bus station so is great for public transports which you might consider taking as parking is not all that abundant. So if you are after a nice night chilled out night or some afternoon drinks this could be the right place for you.
