The Bridge Hotel

Google doesn’t give five stars for workplace health and safety, but if they did, I’d give it to the bridge hotel at Roselle. There was previously a couch where this table and chairs are now seen. (See photos and please ignore the empty pizzas boxes there not mine) If you sat down on the couch without knowing or noticing, it was easy to hit your head against the wooden ledge. This happened to me (and no doubt others). As a person who is passionate about workplace health and safety (I know, I didn’t think my life would pan out this way either, but it has), I would like to thank the bridge hotel for replacing it (the couch) with table and chairs. I don’t know the circumstances, maybe the couch had beer and vomit all over and stunk and needed to be replaced, but nevertheless risk has been eliminated. Thank you to the person who overall this. It hasn’t gone unnoticed. The back of my head says thank you! PS: to the Google question, How long did you wait for a table? Perhaps the correct answer is a number of years. But it was worth waiting for! Thank you and also thank you for keeping life music alive in Sydney. Models, BCO, Machinations and last night Ganggajang. Has been great.

It's a grunge joint which gives it an authentic old charm. Some interesting and unique characters frequent this place. The good thing is they get excellent & iconic bands to perform and have done so for more than 20 years . Well worth a visit.

Sydney’s true & only original true music pub, no frills or pretentiousness. Has a long history of live bands- listed on their website. I’m glad they’ve lasted and hope they continue despite all the development going on.

Saw Boom Crash Opera and The Models on Easter Saturday. It’s a grungy old pub that has fun bands playing. Service at the bar was quick. Crowds are friendly and staff all very efficient and friendly. Especially pleased that bar staff came out to tell people sitting outside for a drink in between acts that Boom Crash were on much earlier than expected, so we didn’t miss too much. Would definitely recommend bringing ear plugs though - the bass and high notes can really blast your ears. And wow, get ready to feel the kick drum playing your ribs. The hard floor and the steps in and out of the venue can really wreak havoc on older knees and backs when you’ve gotta stand for an hour or two for the concert - but I guess it’s the price you gotta pay every now and again.

Hello 1975! It has a certain charm, the arty, the eccentrics, the flying sky high, all gather here. Music in the "grunge" bar, black everything, rough around the edges, shoulder to shoulder, plastic glasses. I went for TOFOG and was more entertained by the guy on guitar in the front bar "Tim", and the distinguished patron serenading a woman with an opera number. But definitely not by the guy who kept yelling out "Are you not entertained" and "By the glory of Rome". What was that?? If you want something to absorb the alcohol you're not getting it here. Staff were great, friendly, tolerant, and they just did it all easily. Very cool posters on the walls and the beer garden is Las Vegas Desert Hotel retro. Loved it!

The staff were so nice and friendly and obviously enjoying the artist. And they let us sit outside and finish our drinks in the garden until very late. Super fun night 🌙. With the new light rail path is super easy to get to.

I saw MiSex at The Bridge on Friday night awesome show It's great The Bridge is still a gig venue and not full of stupid poker machines Keep the live bands coming All the staff and security are great Love your work, keep it coming Cheers Cam

Really enjoyed seeing The Walking Dead on the weekend. Great venue 🙂
