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.

Had such a great experience here tonight. The food was absolutely delicious—full of flavour and clearly made with care. The staff were super friendly and made us feel really welcome, which just added to the relaxed, comfortable vibe. It's the kind of place you leave already thinking about your next visit. Highly recommend!

The food is amazing - probably some of the tastiest burgers, wings, ribs, slaw and chips I have had. The great food was matched only by the service of the staff - I query whether the older men were owners, because that was the kind of feel. The attentiveness was akin to white linen fine-dining but without the stiffness. Great venue for a boys night out, though my wife and daughter would likely want to muscle in on the action. I’ll be back to try their tomahawk.
