I finish work in Circular Quay at 8pm tonight and am meeting up with an old friend for a beer. I was thinking Ivy, but can anyone recommend anything in walking distance that's not scary? Something cosy, not too gaudy. But not Angel Bar.
EDIT: becuase you are all soooooo interested, I ended up going to Tank Stream Bar, on
astrovisionary's suggestion. It was perfect for a weekday windown. They have the most awesome wine collection ever (the pinot was ftw) and lovely canapes. And it's small and cosy. The plasma was gaudy with fox sports but everything else was spot on.
