It seems as if Harris Street is the main street in Pyrmont, and where thing pretty much are happening, and it was when I was wandering along it that I came across this pub. Okay, I already knew this pub was here(because, as my Dad said, I know where all the pubs are — which is not quite true). Anyway, if found that it was quite a peaceful little pub with a nice(but really small) courtyard in the middle. You can eat in here, but only until around mid-afternoon when it become reserved for the smokers. The place was pretty quiet, and the staff really nice, and it is a place that I would return sometime if I was wandering past again.

Oh, for the days when pubs were built like fortresses! With thick walls to keep the teetotallers out, and the drunks in. With thoughts only for practicality, and none for style. With many TVs for the sports, all the sports, all the time. The Dunkirk is across the road from the Quarrymans, which is more of a new-age craft beer pub, but doesn’t have the grand old tradie feel of the ‘Kirk, which has a giant bar, lots of function areas and bistro bits and bobs if you need some quiet time to call the missus so the rest of the boys won’t hear, or to cry when your team gets knocked out of the World Cup, for example, *cough* South Africa *cough*. No frills, no pretence, just good, honest pubbery.
