Charlie Parker's

The vibes are unreal. The cocktails and the bartenders are truly on another level. They work with house-made ferments you won’t find anywhere else, making the whole program genuinely cutting-edge. Don’t pay attention to the low reviews—just people who don’t understand or appreciate the effort this team puts into their craft. A special thank you to the bar crew and to Giacomo for the outstanding experience.

Cool bar and Great atmosphere but we wanted to go for the happy hour which is stated in their website, once we ordered we were told there is no happy hour. But annoying to pay full whack when they list a happy hour. Otherwise very cool venue, service is pretty slow, unless you’re a table of single girls who the male staff were straight onto. Music is also extremely loud so if you want to talk to your drinking partner without shouting then it’s probably not the place to go.

My gawd give your female staff need a raise. Our night out we encountered the most incredible woman! As a female group of friends out in Sydney, having a few cocktails.. nothing ruins the night like a group of older, predatory men lingering… the amazing waitress approached us twice asking if we knew or wanted those men to engage with us. After a while she confidently told them to leave us alone very bluntly and directly. Im fully aware her night would have been a lot harder for having stepped up to support us, but wow… what wonderful staff and we felt so safe and cared for. I’m so appreciative. And felt so cared for as a patron.

Terrible service! Avoid! The staff were all incredibly rude from the moment we walked into the restaurant. We were dressed well yet they judged us for our appearance. They questioned our IDs twice even tho were are all in our late 20s, even when we showed our matching bank cards they still questioned us and made us feel singled out from the rest of the restaurant. A very uncomfortable experience, if you like rude, judgmental staff then come here!

Beautiful decor and ambience, love the architecture of this underground bar. The service was very warm and friendly and unique cocktail menu. You can also get your cocktails/mock tails customised according to your taste. The food menu is limited, but has a bit of everything. The cocktails are bit expensive but worth trying.

Incredibly poor form. Advertised a fougasse on the menu with anchovies and then when delivered it’s three small slices of sourdough for $27? And then when queried reply it’s not the waitstaff’s problem as he isn’t in charge of the kitchen. Pure highway robbery and tactless service. Disappointing. I didn’t take a photo of the meager bread allocation sadly for reference. 2 stars as the atmosphere was well set up, nice moody lighting and good seating locations / music.

Very unique setting underground! Easy to get to in Paddington, lovely service. Reasonably priced margs ($16 tequila week special; not the best you’ll ever have but good enough!). Small menu — bresola & fig flatbread was delicious. Can be a bit cramped if seated at the tables-for-two and I guess, it works with the 2hr street parking nearby!

Underground bar with an interesting cocktail menu. Staff were very overwhelmed with the high volume of Saturday diners/drinkers. But they were very helpful. Food was also surprisingly good.

This is everything that's bad about the tragic appropriation of others talent. Firstly the name, turn in his grave. The other is the fake design, next is the pretentious service, the staff actually believe you're just a product to their small developing ego. Overpriced for drinks and food that's better 5 min away. Really don't bother giving it a try. You'll waste your money time and energy and you'll come out feeling like you've been raped by commercial globalisation.
