I was looking forward to visiting PJ O'Brien's while in Sydney, especially as the pub has a great traditional Irish feel. The décor and atmosphere are definitely the highlights, and at first glance it was encouraging to see a few gluten free options on the menu. Unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to expectations. While there are gluten free dishes available, the venue isn't truly coeliac friendly, which was disappointing as someone with coeliac disease. Having gluten free options is one thing, but confidence in safe preparation is equally important. The food itself was underwhelming. The pizzas looked and tasted like they had been cooked from frozen rather than being freshly made, which was disappointing considering the price. My wife ordered the Guinness and beef pie, but found it to be bland, heavy and stodgy, lacking the rich flavour you'd expect from a classic pub dish. Being an Irish pub, we also had high hopes for the Guinness, but even that was a let down. My son commented that it was served far too cold and tasted watery, which took away from what should have been one of the pub's standout offerings. Overall, it was a disappointing visit. The décor creates a great first impression, but the food, the Guinness and the lack of coeliac-friendly practices meant the experience didn't match the setting. With so many excellent pubs and restaurants in Sydney, I don't think we'd return.
We came without reservation on Sunday evening thinking oh well who will be there on Sunday evening! Wrong thinking :) lots of people And we found only one table available on 2 floor! So reserve the table! They have live music and also on top of great beer of course the food was delicious!!!
Lively pub with great selection of meals available on the menu. Decided on a simple fish and chips meal. Fish was fresh and portions generous. Chips were great too, ordered an extra portion to go with sauce dips. More seating upstairs as the ground floor was pretty crowded. Staff were helpful and very attentive. Great place to relax and have a few beers with friends.
The Mog Champ sends his regards. Everything you'd hope for an a well-established pub! An Irish pub at that. Had a reunion dinner here upstairs and managed to merge two unreserved tables together which was nice. Ordered their Irish stew which was great! Not something you'd usually have for pub food but it was on the "healthier" end I suppose! Later on, they started having some smaller performances downstairs which made the pub a bit lively and rowdy. Loved the service and atmosphere here. Thanks for the night!
