Default Sydney CBD Thursday Night Drinks - October 28th 2010

Hi Folks,

Time to head back to a very old Thursday Night venue - Strattons, at 249 Castlereagh St, in the CBD.

Strattons Hotel

This was actually the venue of the first ever Thursday Night Drinks, back in August 2006, and I don't think that we have ever been back, so let's go and see what's happened to it.

Anybody else in?

Hello mate. Deal me in for a few Sherries. Make a nice change to sitting on my own drinking White Lightening on a park bench.

Yeah.......that's how I roll.

Hey, don't knock it - that's how I started, only drinking white Lightning under the cricket pavillion...

And it all became clear why you hadn't been back to this pub since 2006 as soon as I stepped over the threshold. It looked like a meeting of drunk old men, some of which I think have actually been sitting there since 2006!! Although can't grumble at the 3am closing and 6:30am opening!
