Jacksons On George

Here ia another P.J.Gallaghers irish style pub here..except this is known as Jackson on george. This is very pleasant pub, i would say here is rightfully priced (consider the location of pub). This place also have TAB, free wifi (always plus), some live entertainment on friday. Happy hour is available. Foods (i was at tuesday and here does beef and guiness pie for $15) are served really generously. Plus the waitress at the bar - ClÍona - provides wonderful service. Should come here for one time in the afternoon with friends

The place is alright but the doorman is really really rude. He was kind of plump, on a Wednesday night, thought he owned the bar. Some drunk man came and disturbed our table but he did not bother figuring out who was at fault and was quit on his feet to assumptions. I would much rather drink at home than come here spend my money

Some other patrons during my visit were a bit over the top & becoming roudy & disruptive making the vibe unpleasant & anxiety provoking. Took away from noticing the better aspects of the place. Id say its a venue for a bigger night out rather than a chill with mates over a beer & dinner. Quite pricey. However the location contributes to the prices so for near circular quay in the heart of city youd expect this.

Food was amazing but service was absolutely terrible. We attended a function that had been booked for a large number of people and had been told food would be available to order from 8-10 pm. We tried to order food at 8:30 and were told we couldn't because they were too busy. We then asked if we could bring in other food and were told no. They were happy to container serving everyone drinks though, which I'm certain is not responsible. Eventually (after about 40 minutes) my husband convinced them to let us order and then our food arrived in 15 minutes. Very confusing. Food was actually really delicious, it's a shame they seemed reluctant to actually let us buy it!

I've always liked going to this pub on George St. There are multiple levels and have a pool hall that's open till late. Drinks are the usual prices, but they do serve pints. The music is decent with the downstairs area playing more chill out songs and the upstairs area playing the more clubbing music.

Apparently this is / was known as a dive bar. To me, it was an awesome bit of home. Being from Canada, I'm used to table service, tipping, fake Irish themes and WiFi. This place had it all and an awesome Sunday roast to boot. How can I go wrong? We do need to check out the other areas of the bar, but I'll be back when I get to Oz again...
