MENU
Taps & Chinese Food
Our menu is driven by the joy of sharing and discovering new flavours in an energetic atmosphere driven by three things: Taps, Tunes and Chinese.
A celebration of the world’s greatest cuisine (in our opinion!), our epic Cantonese menu has been created by Applejack Director Of Culinary Patrick Friesen, derived from his love of Australian Chinese food. Our show-stopping wok fried mud crab dish is a must have and we take pride in offering the best value mud crab in town!
The beverage list is a collaboration between Applejack Sommelier Amandine Rouviere and Taphouse Bar Manager Matt Johnson. With 20 plus taps on offer, expect to see a rotating selection of Sydney’s favourite breweries on the menu. A range of wines and cocktails are also available, chosen with the idea of being simple, recognisable and delicious.
The menu is served across all three levels of the pub, so whether you’re popping in for Sunday Shenanigans, Friday lunches, trivia night or live sports, you can enjoy your favourite dishes in the Public Bar, Level 1, or on the rooftop with a cold one.
*We cater for most dietary requirements. Whilst all reasonable efforts are taken to accommodate dietary needs, we cannot guarantee that our food will be allergen-free. Prices and items are subject to seasonal changes.
