This spacious art deco pub is casual and unpretentious, and a fine place to sink a few craft beers, sip some Australian wines or join in nightly events like drag-queen-hosted Cards Against Humanity (Wednesday). Burgers are the highlight of the OK eating offerings. There's a cosy downstairs bistro and small beer garden. More than the sum of its parts.
