Duke of Edinburgh | 148 Enmore Rd | Sydney

“Just a stroll from the Enmore Theatre, it's the unofficial pre-drink (or post, given that it stays open until the wee hours on weekends) location for every gig, serving a different crowd each night: indie kids, crusty punks, comedy fans, theatresports aficionados, old rockers, metalheads and hoodies. It's a haven of piercings and hair dye, but still maintains the old charm of a working-class pub.”
