With over 130 Australian Craft Beers available & our famous gourmet pizzas (including Kangaroo & Crocodile) the Aussie is a favourite spot for all. THE AUSTRALIAN HERITAGE HOTEL WAS ORIGINALLY LOCATED ON GEORGE STREET, NEXT TO WHERE THE MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART NOW STANDS. On 12th August 1824, The Sydney Gazette announced that the Australian Heritage Hotel was officially opened for business on G
eorge Street. When the plague hit Sydney in 1900, many buildings were pulled down to prevent further outbreaks, including the Australian Hotel. The license was then transferred to a new building located on the Archaeological site nearby at 116 Cumberland Street.
100 years on, the Australian Heritage Hotel remains, one of the most intact pubs in Sydney & locals favourite watering holes.The building is a unique, attractive and well preserved example of Edwardian style architecture with quality and taste present throughout the hotel, from the tiling through to the tap faucets. The Australian Heritage Hotel still has many of its pre-existing features, such as the metal awnings, etched signage and saloon style bar doors. The Hotel is listed on the State Heritage register and the Conservation and Heritage Register for Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority.
