BarChickAugust 19, 2013The vibe here is about as laid back and cheery as it gets, but a word of warning, the loo upstairs is marked with the word trough. Just sayin’ http://barchick.com/find-a-bar/sydney/the-wild-rover
Dennis LeFebruary 21, 2015You'll likely miss the door, but it's worth stumbling into the lively atmosphere & tasty cocktails inside. Excellent service, quirky interiors & live music. Try Veronica Vaughn for something punchy.
JaneFebruary 28, 2014Service is SO good. We went to the Wild Rover for my husband's bday and they were so great - very attentive, delicious drinks and even a surprise bday shot. Our new favorite bar!
Love the wallpaper. The staff is knowledgable and friendly. The copper cups keep the beer super cold. Order the Hell's Kitchen Martini!! And say hi to warren, James and Kim.
John BoothJuly 13, 2015Hidden behind a non descript door is an awesome bar. Feels like a funky pub, serves excellent cocktails.
bounce between whiskey and beer, something different each time, and you can't go wrong- Sean Leo RyanDecember 5, 2014Hidden gem, awesome friendly bartenders, nice after dinner spot from Nomad or Longrain
Elliot ChanceJuly 27, 2015A hard place to find if you haven't been here before. But a good find. Lots of selections for beer and whiskey.
Sarah CaveJuly 4, 2013Commendable cocktails. Weeski is a delectable orange liqueur / whiskey confection with a French twist.
Adam HargroveAugust 2, 2013Super rad bar. Really friendly staff, great selection of beers, spirits, wine and cocktails. Great atmosphere.
P PPJuly 5, 2014I love their craft beer. Dad 'n Dave! Good music on Sunday! Come early to grab a seat!
Amy PakJune 10, 2017Fun bar and bartenders, very cosy but lively at the same time! Good selection of whisky
George WestcottMarch 1, 2016Great bar, awesome atmosphere and not as pretentious as some of its peers.
Simon Xuan ShenJanuary 30, 2016Music a bit loud, bar a bit slow but other than that quite a nice bar
Derek WilsonJune 9, 2015Craft beer, bushrangers and bandits. Don't say nothing about this to no one.
Excellent service, this place is brilliant. Disappointed not to receive my hug!

"Cool atmosphere, friendly staff, cheap drink specials, tasty food. The banh mi was a bit of a disappointment though, instead of crispy rolls, they're encased in small soft Coles-style dinner rolls."
