Friend In Hand Hotel

Food had gone downhill. Had not been at the Friend in Hand for a couple of years and was incredibly disappointed with the latest experience. Always loved the vibe, was reasonably priced for drinks and meals. Ordered a veal Parma, was given a schnitzel which they fixed up. When the Parma arrived, I was disappointed to find they now use processed burger cheese and tomato sauce (no ham). Tasted absolutely disgusting, and when I questioned the use of the cheese I was told that's what they now use. Worst Parma I've had, won't be eating here again.

Retro pub really good for meeting friends. Has lots of character. Has some really hearty and great tasting and well priced meals. All meals basically range from $15 to $20 and are large, fresh and made to order. Burgers, schnitzels, lasagna, meatballs, amazing shoe string fries, etc. Weeknight specials as well. Georgie the cockatoo who lives in the pub is a real hoot. Well worth visiting this Glebe gem.

One of the only authentic public bars in Sydney. There is a resident Sulphur-crested Cockatoo that even has favourite patrons and the staff are amazing and friendly. A real gem in a picturesque part of Glebe, with great people watching opportunities (trust me, its a blast)! If you are meandering down Glebe Point Road, duck down for a drink - they have Canadian Club on tap!

We just moved into the area so we were keen to try a local pub two minutes walk from us. We both had the Chicken Schnitzel. Tasted like it could be wonderful unfortunately it was let down by the bitterness from unclean oil. The barman whom we ordered the meal from was great He made us a great strong G&T!
