gem of a find. firstly let me say there is a great deal of canada about this place. (name, owner, staff, menu, decor, attitude), i heard about it last sat. (may 07 '11) and popped in on sunday for the hockey game. you see, the vancouver canucks ice hockey team are in the playoffs. it is a tense time in bondi because i, brody the owner, and a bunch of the staff are from van. or at least canada. as are a great deal of the customers.
at 10 am the bar area is packed with coffee swilling unpaid staff and their friends just to watch the game with us punters. this only adds to the already great atmosphere. you can tell they care. they don't normally open this early but thought they might get a crowd for the game. and did they. by 11 am they are at least half full with fans like myself who are there just for the game. and no patron was left wanting because the unpaid staff that were there to watch the game just stepped in when needed. it's a small place. this wasn't hard. and there was no coersion from the boss. it's a family. it just happened.
the menu is simple for a reason. do it limited and get it right. and they do.
same for the cocktail and bar menu. limited but perfect.
i dare you to take on all the garnishes of brody's bloody mary.
i chickened out last week but i'm gonna take the challenge this monday. ;)
