On the Grid : Surly's

"Just off Campbell St, Surly's is the bar for when you come to Sydney but wish you'd made a stop-over in Texas first. Grab a seat at the rock-n-roll diner meets sports-bar, order a cold Coors beer with some fried chicken and/or chilli cheese fries, sit back and enjoy the atmosphere. Despite a completely American appearance, expect the best of Australian sports on the big screens and the best of Australian culture in the seats (just the right amount o' rowdy). Cheers." - For the People

I've been curious with american food. And when i search google, it recommend me this place. I try their Mac n cheese. I will say so far it's the best. Add a bit of brisket on top, and it's perfect. Also i order their big platter. Tbh, i feel like the brisket a bit dry. Love the corn cake & chicken wings. Totally recommended! PS. I really really hope they have biscuit & gravy. I always curious with american biscuit & gravy. Pretty please.. make it in your menu.

Booked for my partner’s birthday dinner as he loves bbq places and this place was a hit. The vibes and service were immaculate. The food was good as well! The only negative was we thought the brisket tacos were a bit dry and could do with some more sauce. Highly recommend the Mac and cheese! It was so good we got a second helping. Def will come back!

The BBQ platter is generous and well-suited for sharing, with a good mix of meats covering the essentials. The mac and cheese works well as a side, adding a creamy contrast to the smoky flavours. There’s also a wide selection of beers and drinks available, making it an easy place to settle in for hearty food and a few drinks.

What a bloody awesome experience! Dr Pepper being available was a huge win on its own but the amount of food you get for your money is outstanding! The brisket was absolutely to die for and get all that all on its own, the maple covered corn bread was also a favourite. Wish we our local BBQ place was as good as this back home, we’d be there every single week! Absolutely amazing all round, good job everyone!

Tasty food with good vegetarian options as well. I really enjoyed the Alabama Burger with sweet potato patty and the hubby loved his meaty burger. Generous serving of fries on the side. Nachos with guacamole were the only average item: Nachos were crisp but guac too little :) Service was great, with every staff member very friendly and helpful. We’re definitely going back here.

Really chill vibes and super cool staff. The food was rather excellent and our friend group pigged out a little bit on all the barbecue. Trivia was a lot of fun, host had awesome energy but we bombed out with the answers lol. Other teams seemed to do fine so maybe it’s just us.
