Drinks & Nightlife
Head to The Vic for a beer and a burger and hang out in the beer garden. Prime real estate at the Vic is out the back on the huge, covered wooden deck with a shady tree at one end and a fire pit for the odd spit-roast lamb at the other. From there you can survey the basketball court/parking lot called the Projects, where mini festivals, basketball competitions, bike polo and hip-hop afternoons take place.

Young Henrys is all about the inclusive afternoon sessions and on a weekend you’ll want to shake a leg in order to secure one of the prized high tables at the brewery cellar door. Drink like a local with a frosty Newtowner, down a Real Ale for a proper, English-style bitter or secure serious summer refreshment with the perennially popular cloudy cider.

It might sound like a terrible idea, but you should definitely order the fresh and fruity watermelon pilsner called the Serpent’s Kiss. Or perhaps the smoky, roasty flavours of the Demon Lungs porter is more your style. Quite frankly we’d be happy with a straight run of the Australian pale ale that ticks all the boxes.
Right now they are open Fridays through Sundays with a strong pro-dog, pro-kids, pro-snacks agenda, which means you can BYO pizza, or maybe Bourke Street Bakery treats from down the road.
