Mary’s isn’t simply the greatest feed in your postcode. It’s a cultural icon. Your neighbourhood staple. The big bad burger bar that saved Sydney from itself. Splatter by splatter. Sud by sud. Short menu, loud music and plenty of booze is the recipe from which Mary’s continues to grow.We exist solely for good food, good drinks and Fucking good times. None of the shit stuff. One big fucked-up family. With an open-door policy that lays out a welcome mat for the local wasters, waifs, and weirdos. Open all hours. To all persuasions. For all occasions.But we do a shitload more than that. We’re scene setters. Game changers. Lords of culture. Genre hoppers. Venue builders. Art ambassadors. Musical mavens. Disciples to the lost art of a big fucking night out.Totally irreverent. Undeniably bold. Utterly iconic. Always f*cking delicious!Beers, burgers and good times.

Everything was really good. The only thing they could do is have at least an hour and a half booking times. We did go there knowing that it was only an hour but I think when you're spending $150.00 for breakfast it's a little short.

Great family venue. The food was generally all pretty delicious. Service is friendly and fast. We ordered the wings, which we thought were great value. We felt that the tenders and loaded fries were a bit expensive for what you get. So good that it's a venue that you can book ahead of time so you don't have to stand in a queue. Would recommend.
