Overview

Multi-level venue with two rooftop terraces in Sydney CBD.

The Bristol Arms is a classic local pub with a twist, that you should visit mainly for the Bristol Rooftop up top. Located in Sydney CBD, close to Darling Harbour, the spacious indoor and outdoor terrace(s) offers cool views of the central parts of the city and also even a glimpse of the water.

Quite a large venue, The Bristol Arms has both public bar and dining spaces indoors on the lower levels, showing sports and serving modern pub classic's. Up on the rooftop you can also enojy a burger or similar pub-grub along with a large drink menu ranging from beers and wines to cocktails.

The spacious rooftop with two terraces is quite simple in decor, with mainly regular bar stools and tables. A great Sydney rooftop to visit during weekdays for a central, laid-back and relaxing al-fresco drink. From Thursday-Saturday the Bristol Rooftop gets a lot more vibrant, with live DJs turning up the atmosphere.
