Apollo Inn

24/09/2025

A menu that celebrates a twilight drink; one that tops off evenings of exuberance and indulgence with a final, or few, stimulating sips. Our Nightcap menu is just that and offered every evening from 9pm. It comprises three drinks: one to energise, one to soften and another to sweeten the deal. Alongside a serve of chocolate profiteroles, these are exactly what’s needed to while away the late hours in a candlelit corner.  ⁠
⁠
​​​​​​​From 9pm until late, 7 nights a week.

When Jim Meehan’s name was first mentioned at Apollo Inn, a ripple of excitement reverberated through the team. Celebrated as one of the world’s leading bartenders, Jim rose to fame behind the bar at New York’s renowned speakeasy, Please Don’t Tell. He’s a driver of the modern cocktail movement, using curious and delicious ingredients to transform classic cocktail recipes for the modern palate. ⁠
⁠
As generous with his expertise as he is skilled at stirring down a delightful drink, Jim won Tales of the Cocktail’s Bartender of the Year in 2009 as well as multiple James Beard awards. He is now an accomplished author, with his book, The Bartender’s Pantry, published last year. ⁠
⁠
Jim is a self-declared “cowboy without a horse” — a bartender without a bar. And so, it’s a true delight for him to join us at Apollo Inn for a Guest Shift on his travels through Australia. On Thursday, the menu below of five of Jim’s drinks will feature alongside five of our own favourites.⁠
⁠
​​​​​​​Walk-ins welcome, reservations recommended.

On Sunday, we had the pleasure of hosting Caryn and Brendan from for Calling From Tokyo. It was an evening of Izakaya-style snacks, along with the sake, ice-cold Japanese Slippers and whiskey highballs that go so well with their delicious food. ⁠
⁠
Thank you again, Caryn and Brendan - it was a truly exceptional night 📞

It’s Dine Out! Festival and the crew from Sydney’s Herbs Negroni Taverne are flying down to Flinders Lane for a party on Sunday 10th August. ⁠
⁠
Herbs Negroni Taverne is one of Sydney’s favourite new bars. They’re bringing down an array of their signature Negronis, each with its own delicious spin. We’ll have our own drinks alongside and our chefs will be cooking a menu of snacks primed for Negroni and Martini-sipping. Plus Adam Hailliwell (Mildlife) will be on the decks all night long. ⁠

Reservations are available until 8pm, with walk-ins until late.
