PJs In The City

PJs In The City Formerly PJ O'Reilly's, PJs in the City is your local pub, located in the heart of Canberra.

Welcome to PJs in the City, a local pub that prides itself on good service, great food and a fantastic range of beers on tap. PJs has been in Canberra for over 20 years now and over the years has built up a great regular clientele of local workers out for a quick lunch right through to others out for a dance on a Friday or Saturday night. PJs bar was designed and built in Dublin and is a warm and

friendly meeting place where Canberra’s locals and visitors come together to enjoy the warm friendly atmosphere, great food, all washed down with a nice cold beer or glass of wine in our fantastic beer garden or in the comfort of either of our two bar rooms.

A microphone in a pub. Brave stuff.

Could be a work farewell. Could be some birthday banter. Could be someone three glasses deep thanking the bar staff like they’ve won an award.

Either way, if you’re planning a function, PJs has the space, the feeds and enough atmosphere to carry even the worst public speaker. 🎤🍺

Week 2 World Cup games are here, along with very confident football opinions from people who discovered these teams yesterday. ⚽🍻

Swipe through the fixtures, pick your underdog, and lock in your table at PJ’s.
Bonus points if you’re here for Paraguay v Australia on Friday. That's the one wh'ere we can all claim the underdog status!

And don’t forget, whenever the underdog’s leading, schooners drop to $4.
That’s the kind of chaos we can get behind.

Canberra winter’s trying its best to ruin everyone’s mood again. Cute.

That’s why happy hour exists. A couple of cheaper drinks, some familiar faces and suddenly the seasonal blues don’t stand a chance.

Happy Hour - 4-6pm Weekdays (yep it 2 hours *don't tell the boss)

Clock off, thaw out and fight the winter slump the proper way at PJs. 🍺❄️

The FIFA World Cup has kicked off and so has you reason to have an 'out-of-office' lunch everyday this week⚽🍻

Swipe through for all the Week 1 games, showing LIVE & LOUD on the big screens.
And remember, whenever the underdog is winning, schooners drop to $4. 👀

Big games. Cheap beers. Absolute chaos.

Cold weather and cocktails? Yeah, we’re backing it.

If it’s chilly outside, you may as well warm your hands around something decent. A proper pour, a little showmanship behind the bar, and suddenly winter doesn’t seem so personal.

Sip slow and act like this was your plan all along. 🍸🔥

The FIFA World Cup is coming to PJ’s ⚽🍻 Forget the favourites. We’re backing the Underdogs.

We're throwing our pints behind the little guys. The 50/1 shots. The teams the pundits forgot, from the countries you can’t pronounce.

Because let's be honest… nothing hits like a giant going down.

And every time the underdog takes the lead?
🍺 $4 schooners until the favourites fight back.

Big screens, pub feeds, cold beers, and enough emotional investment in random countries to last a lifetime.

Book your table and pick your underdog.

Not every feed needs to send you straight into a food coma.

Handmade kothay dumplings, golden on the outside, soft in the middle, and served with a sauce that absolutely understood the assignment.

Easy to share… but also very easy to gatekeep. 🥟

Some pubs have background music.
Some pubs become the reason you stayed out longer than planned.

We’re working on the second one.

New music residency coming soon to PJs. 🎶🍺 Stay tuned.

You said you were just coming in for one drink after studying.

Next thing you know, the notes are gone, the table’s full and someone’s explaining an entire semester’s worth of content with the confidence of a man who definitely didn’t attend the lectures.

Exam season at PJs. Beautiful chaos, really. 🍻
