Bowery Lane

With Brooklyn-style dive bars down every second laneway, it’s refreshing to see a bit of New York City class find its way back into Sydney. This Manhattan-style offering brings together the city’s unique sense of fashion with art deco glamour, leather booths, dapper staff and not a single hot dog on the menu. Sophistication is paramount, like Yamba Prawn Sliders ($16), zesty and fresh with fennel slaw. Share some Manchego Croquettes ($14) with smoked chilli aioli, the perfect cocktail complement – and trust me, the cocktails here are serious business. Take Bowery Lane’s Pharmaceutical Stimulant ($16), a tonic that is sure to cure any ailment with its cold drip coffee injection. Or the Mexican Gateway Fizz ($16), a twist on the margarita with apricot brandy and bubbles. Of course you can still get your New York Cheeseburger ($20), and it is sublime, cooked medium and oozing with juicy goodness. Go all out and match it with a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Shake ($7). If a whole BBQ chicken or lamb shoulder is too ambitious, try the pretty-looking, farm-fresh Globe Artichokes ($25) served with ancient grains, heirloom carrots, beets and goats curd. It might be in the business end of town, but Bowery Lane will have you fashionably bowled over.
