Elyse EstradaDecember 1, 2015Nothing is open on Sunday's except for this incredible gay scene. They close the top floor early though so don't expect to have a late night. Amazingly crowded considering all around is a ghost town.
DamanJanuary 6, 2015This is for the people who want to be seen at one of the hottest bars in Sydney. Don't forget to check out Upstairs Beresford! Great music and quality people makes for a great time.
One of the best pubs in Surry Hills. Good value beers during the two hour happy hour. It's full most nights but the beer garden provides ample room for the trendy people who flock here
Rob AtkinsonJanuary 14, 2016Good big pub. Gay Sundays in the back courtyard are classic. Can be a lot of smokers in the back courtyard
Sunday Sesh is great, although patio can get packed. Good spot for eye candy and $5 beers from 5-7pm! The upstairs bar for special events is beautiful.- Amazing modern venue! Courtyard is beautiful and you must go on Sunday nights! Beresford Sundays is a must
Sunday is just the best time to be here - late afternoon - everyone is here! Magical lanterns in the courtyard with a gorgeous wall of ferns+ivy...the courtyard despite being outdoors is soooooo smoky
Andre SAugust 16, 2014It's more of a hotel style faux up market bar. The place is massive so there's always a place for you to sit. There's plenty of better bars in this area to explore first.- Scott McCallumMay 29, 2021The Beresford is in my top 3 hotels in Australia, especially during the early hours.
Ken KJanuary 15, 2014If the jumped up 'roid heads on the door try & tell you that you must be 50m away from the premises after closing say NO. The rule applies only if you have been refused entry/ejected. Fight the power!
Aprile WenkeSeptember 30, 2016Courtyard in the day and then D floor at night. All your occasions are covered at the Bero
Restaurant GuruSeptember 2, 2012Great atmosphere in the courtyard, BBQ is on, sweet aromas flowing everywhere, nice people and great service
Great place to people watch... So much variety! Also the pints of beer are delicious!
Martyn TimmerJanuary 7, 2011Ever since Merivale took over the place improved a lot... the courtyard has a lot more green and tables in it and the food is actually quite good... as you would expect, prices are nice and heigh, but
- Summer movie night every Monday - brilliant - tonight it's Beetlejuicehttp://merivale.com.au/whats-on/event/summer-move-nights/
Happy hour ... I like that ... Oh my HAPPY will be happy ... Hee hee
Tri WahyuniOctober 25, 2012First impression at sydney this place is Great Pub with the small garden in the back
Yasmine SchillebeeckxAugust 18, 2013$5 cider and beer happy hour on Friday! But front bar is incredibly slow when busy (15min, seriously?).
George CookJuly 23, 2011Lageritas... where else but The Beresford! They're awesome when made right... need that sweet stuff and a good stir!
Keep an eye on your valuables, peeps - my wallet was stolen early Sat. evening.
Try the Steamed Snapper With Canniolini & Corn - Fresh and light. Yum!
Martijn BoersmaJune 28, 2013I've heard bar personnel moves at a glacial pace, but I got served quite quickly considering it's Friday night.
- I ve got free sausage roll ! It's not big enough but nice ! Yummy !! Hee hee
what a sausage fest on sat'day nite! Beer garden worth a look when not raining, plus it's gay-friendly environment
Take a look around - See Loz, the Emo in the corner with the red fringe. Just tell her your famous and you’re in!Eaaaasy...- Watching rugby now... Blue is too strong ... Oops red is coming ! But like blue ( my colours ) anyway ... Whatever ...
- Cheese platters have the most intereting cheeses which change..last time with magical fresh honeycomb
If you like dessert don't try the chocolate mousse you could get better at coles!
Matt RowlesAugust 7, 2015It's good, but don't go upstairs after 10pm, it's not worth the shellacking you get from seńor personal space obliviouso's
Mike BainbridgeJune 28, 2011Maybe it's a bad night but the bar smells of sour beer and the Coopers is off. The batman disagrees but I have been drinking beer a lot longer than him
Alicia BaderAugust 28, 2011both the pints & the beer garden are a highlight here. but saturday nights are a nightmare... far too crowded.
- The front bar is a whole lot slower than the back. Can wait up to 20 min during peak
