Bar 99

We intended to check out The Little Guy after watching a performance of The Taming of the Shrew at Sydney Shakespeare Festival, given that none of us has been there before we ended up walking into a bar what we later discovered is actually Bar 99.

I've always found that the places you accidentally stumble upon are often some of the best places, and Bar 99 just made it onto the list.

The ground floor consists of a sitting area, the bar, the kitchen and an outdoor sitting area in the court yard at the back. Drinks and food menu are scribbled on the wall, if something runs out it is simply crossed off.

Mid level is decked out like a living room, complete with various board games and the Ping Pong room occupies the top floor.

The giant melting candles and dim lighting added to the casual and relaxed atmosphere that spreads from the bottom to the top floor. It makes you feel like you are at someone's home rather than in a bar.

Cocktails are offered, but it's not the main focus of this old terrace house bar. Ciders, beers and wine are the more popular items at the bar, but take note, this is a cash only bar so make sure you visit an ATM beforehand.
