Yardhouse Sydney

The Yardhouse Experience: Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie

2012-02-12T19:56:00.000-08:00

‘During the first World War all bars had a 6.00pm curfew, so men would rush over after work, drink as much as they could and head home drunk before dinner.’ Almost one hundred years on and as though time stood still, the history and spirit of the Yardhouse continues to radiate and attract visitors near and far.

While some of the Bar and Brasserie’s 125 year history may be plastered over by newly renovated walls and contemporary interior design, the spot on the corner of George St and Hay St in Sydney continues to host classical elements that draw men and women alike in for a pint or two of beer.

Divided into five sections, the Yardhouse experience starts at the George Street entrance. Welcoming you to the property is the jazz influenced Palace Bar. A spacious and inviting section of the property, the Palace Bar was designed to appeal and attract locals, particularly those looking to test-out the bar’s 60 various types of beer on tab and bottle.

Connected to the Palace Bar, is the Middle Bar. Seating only 18 patrons, the Middle Bar offers an intimate space for small parties or patrons looking to escape the bustle of Sydney.

Walking through the smaller Middle Bar guests will end up in the contemporary Brasserie. Seating up to 118 people, the large space is definitely the heart of the bar. Similarly to the Palace Bar, the Brasserie is decorated in heritage-style furnishing but with a hint of darkness, through darker timbers.

As well as offering the Bar’s alcoholic specialities the Brasserie is also home to the Yardhouse’s all day/night menu. More on food later.

New to the location, the Yardhouse has added an all new downstairs seating area for live music. Monday night’s the downstairs scene invites Reggae bands to take the stage while Friday and Saturday nights are dedicated to a more rock sounds, to attract weekend crowds.

And for the smokers, the Yardhouse also has George St and Hay St seating where you can enjoy your beer, a ciggie, some food and the sight of people as they scurry through the streets of Sydney.

Aside from what seems to be a never-ending choice of alcoholic beverages, the Yardhouse is also home to some of Sydney’s best dishes, designed by award winning Daniel Collins.

Splitting its menus into four to cater to guests dining in various sections of the property, the Yardhouse has; the Yardhouse Menu, Yardhouse All Day Bar Menu, Yardhouse Brasserie Menu and Theatre Menu.

The bar’s dining hours commence from 12.00pm to 3.00pm Monday to Friday and dinner from 6.00pm while from midday until late guests can enjoy food from the Brasserie menu.

From the Brasserie menu, patrons can choose to dine on exquisite salads including the divine prawn and haloumi salade with watermelon and cracked wheat.

For the mains guests can choose from the bar’s house specialty skewers including chicken, thai prawn and Moroccan lamb while my recommended dish is the beer battered flathead with tomato and white http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifbeans for something uniquely familiar.

Completing the socialising, drinking and dining experience, you can’t go without testing the Yardhouse chocolate brownie with orange, pistachio and vanilla ice cream.

Yummy.

Next time you are passing through Sydney’s city be sure to check out Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie for a wide variety of foods, a never-ending selection of alcoholic beverages and a range of rooms to suit your every mood.

Hoppy Hefe Launches at Yardhouse Bar & Brasserie

2012-02-09T18:45:00.000-08:00

James Squire is set to launch Mad Brewers Summer Limited Release Hoppy Hefe at the Yardhouse Bar & Brasserie on Monday 20th February.

This special event is only open to all “James Squire Beer Club members” and their guests.

The Hefeweizen (literally "yeast wheat") beer style originates from Southern Germany. In brewing these beers a high portion of wheat is used (usually in the order of 40-60% of the malt grist), and while the use of wheat malt gives a paler colour (in relation to barley malt), the resulting beer is unfiltered and has a hazy appearance from the presence of yeast (‘hefe').

The yeast strains traditionally used in fermentation impart banana & clove aromas and flavors to offset the creamy-texture imparted by the yeast and wheat.

For more information log on to http://www.jamessquire.com.au/blog/index.php/2012/02/01/mad-brewers-hoppy-hefe-robert-freshwater-dayton-coffey/

Metro Hospitality Launches Yardhouse Sydney: Bar and Brasserie

2011-12-08T16:30:00.000-08:00

After its first full month of trading the Metro Hospitality Group is reporting success at its new venue, the Yardhouse Brasserie in Sydney's Haymarket.

A major refurbishment has transformed the old Paddy McGuire's into a stylish, contemporary site seating 118, with hints of its heritage-style Palace Hotel lineage such as dark timbers, polished brass, intimate seating, mirrors and photographs of George S"We are extremely delighted with the way the public has responded to the opening of Yardhouse," said George Bedwani, Metro Hospitality Group CEO. "Comments on the quality and value for money of the food have been very reassuring.

The new name was inspired by the pinnacle of beer receptacles, the yard glass, the pub and sports over 60 craft beers.

The front bar has been re-named the Palace Bar, now refurbished and partially re-constructed in its original location.

Capitalising on business from the Capitol Theatre next door, the pub positions itself as a meeting place for pre- and post-show theatre-goers as well as the traditional local business clientele.

There is a new menu, produced by new chef Daniel Collins, which features light meals for passing-through patrons, and heartier fare for the business regulars.

Downstairs has been dedicated to live music – reggae on Mondays and rock on the weekends – but on Tuesday and Thursday nights a large screen shows musical tributes to contemporary and past artists.

Yardhouse Sydney: Bar and Brasserie Review by Jackie McMillan

2011-11-30T18:00:00.000-08:00

Convincing your crew of plain eaters to pop down to the Capitol Theatre for a show just got a little easier, with the neighbouring hotel undergoing a tidy up and refit.

Their resulting modern Australian brasserie however, may take a little adjusting to… It’s situated under the neon pink lights and sounds of Japanese photo land. Getting smashed helps – the Basil Smash ($14) is improved tableside by shredding the garnish into the drink; while an Apple Smash ($14) is turned tantalisingly toffee apple by Licor 43. Before you start thinking it’s all James Squire beers and mega-steaks like the 400g Angus Ribeye on the Bone ($36), which incidentally wins me over with house-made Smoked BBQ Sauce ($2); try the whizz-bang Wagyu Bresaola Salad ($19.50). It’s beautifully balanced with shaved pecorino cheese, sweetly caramelised pear and perky leaves.

It easily outclasses the Chicken Liver and Brandy Parfait ($14) dished up with plentiful sourdough toast. ‘Skewers’ doesn’t do the heavily laden Yardhouse branded swords justice – tender Moroccan Lamb Rump ($32) scrubbed up very nicely indeed, with plentiful cous cous, harissa and chickpea salad. Let their wet wine glass ring logo remind you to consume it with a rich red, like Cape Barren Native Goose GSM ($8/glass, $38/bottle), but do watch for Light Rail trams when you alight…

The Stylish Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie in Sydney’s Haymarket is a popular dining and entertainment choice for Sydney’s business crowd, theatre goers attending the neighbouring Capitol Theatre and tourists in the CBD.

Formerly Paddy McGuires pub, a major refurbishment undertaken, has transformed the site into a stylish and contemporary venue while still paying homage to the heritage of the area, particularly the former Palace Hotel which once occupied part of the site. The ‘Yardhouse’ name was inspired by the popular beer drinking vessel of the 1800s, the yard glass, while the front bar off George Street has been renamed the Palace Bar and will continue to appeal to the traditional patrons of the area who enjoy a drink after work.

The contemporary brasserie with seating for 118 patrons forms the heart of the venue. The interior design carries through aspects of the heritage-style Palace Bar with accents of dark timber and polished brass, with the addition of plush modern furnishings in the form of lounges, banquettes, chairs and stools along with dining tables and a framed view
of the working kitchen.

The Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie is a modern fresh venue offering guests and all in one venue.Whether you’re booking an intimate gathering for 10 or extravagant event for 300 the Yardhouse Sydney can cater to all your needs with options to suit all budgets and styles.

Award winning chef Daniel Collins has been entrusted with the job of putting Sydney’s newest eating and entertainment venue Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie on the city’s dining map after being appointed Head Chef.

Due to open next month, Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie is located on the corner of George and Hay Streets next to the Capitol Theatre. The former Paddy McGuires pub site has undergone a major refurbishment, transforming it into a chic contemporary venue while still paying homage to the heritage of the area, particularly the former Palace Hotel which once occupied part of the site.

Daniel will be responsible for the 118-seat brasserie which forms the heart of the new venue, as well as catering for bar meals served in the front bar of the establishment and for a pre-theatre crowd attending shows at the neighbouring Capitol Theatre.

Daniel was awarded the State Medal for Outstanding Performance after ranking first in NSW in the Diploma or Hospitality Management in 2009. He was also recognised as the Most Outstanding Student in the TAFE Northern Sydney Institute Tourism and Hospitality Awards for Excellence.

However, Daniel is no novice to the kitchen, having started his career in restaurants in England in 1994 and working his way through a variety of positions including Sous Chef at The Dolphin Hotel, Surry Hills, before being appointed Head Chef at The Russell Hotel and Wine Bar in The Rocks. While at The Russell he ran an 80 seat restaurant with 2 private function rooms yet considers the Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie to be his greatest challenge yet, not least because of the size of the brasserie at 118 seats.

Already Daniel has developed an extensive menu designed to cater for a variety of tastes and appetites. While the lighter pre-theatre menu includes such dishes as spiced calamari with Szechuan pepper salt, chilli, coriander and citrus aioli or Beef and James Squire Porter pot pie, the full brasserie menu has a selection of four different steaks (including a 300g Wagyu rump), five types of skewers (each with a different international heritage) and seven mains including such mouth-watering temptations as slow-braised pork belly and smoked paprika seasoned kingfish.

While Daniel’s English roots can be seen dishes such as the ham hock terrine with parsley and caper dressing served with crisp toast – available as a share plate on the bar menu – the variety of dishes on offer is testament to his versatility and English heritage, ensuring Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie will cater for a variety of palates in this popular tourist area of the city.

Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie is open for lunch from 12pm-3pm Monday to Friday and for dinner from 6pm. On weekends, the brasserie is open from midday until late.

Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie – Sydney’s Stylish New Venue for Dining and Entertainment

2011-10-06T20:29:00.001-07:00

Stylish and contemporary, Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie, opened this week in Sydney’s Haymarket and is expected to become a popular dining and entertainment choice for Sydney’s business crowd, theatre goers attending the neighbouring Capitol Theatre and tourists in the CBD.

Formerly Paddy McGuires, a major refurbishment undertaken by the venue’s owner, Metro Hospitality Group, has seen the venue significantly expand its offering to appeal to a broader clientele.

Located on the corner of George and Hay Streets, Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie has been transformed both internally and externally, converting it into a stylish and contemporary venue while still paying homage to the heritage of the area, particularly the former Palace Hotel which once occupied part of the site.

The ‘Yardhouse’ name was inspired by the popular beer drinking vessel of the 1800s, the yard glass, while the front bar off George Street has been renamed the Palace Bar and will continue to appeal to the traditional patrons of the area who enjoy a drink after work.

The Palace Bar has been refurbished and partially reconstructed in its original location and the timber features of the bar restored to their original finery. More than 60 craft beers are available, on tap and in the bottle, while an all-day bar menu is available. Decorated with reference to jazz musicians, this stylish heritage-inspired area offers a place to relax and unwind in comfort while enjoying a cooling ale, just as generations of Sydneysiders have done in centuries gone by.

The middle bar is newly created as part of the refurbishment and connects the Palace Bar with the Brasserie. This intimate area, with seating for just 18 guests, is furnished in lounge-style and is expected to be a popular haunt for couples and small groups.

A contemporary brasserie with seating for 118 patrons forms the heart of the venue. The interior design carries through aspects of the heritage-style Palace Bar with accents of dark timber and polished brass, with the addition of plush modern furnishings in the form of lounges, banquettes, chairs and stools along with dining tables and a framed view of the working kitchen. The result is a harmonious fusion of dining comfort and kitchen energy, forming the perfect heart for the new Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie.

The new palette of crème, charcoal and maroon is used throughout to marry the heritage elements of the façade and internal bars with the contemporary elements introduced. Externally, the colour palette enhances the elaborate architectural detail of the George Street entrance while providing the venue with a fresh, clean appeal. Inside, the crème, charcoal and maroon compliment the dark wood paneling, shiny brass decorative beer pipes, high metal plate ceilings and existing architectural fretwork, while mauves and purples have been introduced in the soft furnishings to add a sense of modern comfort and warmth.

New chef Daniel Collins has created a Brasserie menu that includes light meals to tempt pre-theatre patrons as well as hearty fare for its business clientele. While the pre-theatre menu includes offerings such as spiced calamari with Szechuan pepper salt, chilli, coriander and citrus aioli or Beef and James Squire Porter pot pie, the full brasserie menu has a selection of four different steaks (including a 300g Wagyu rump), five types of skewers (each with a different international heritage) and seven mains with such mouth-watering temptations as slow-braised pork belly or smoked paprika seasoned kingfish.

A downstairs area has been created specifically for live music. Reggae bands will be featured on Monday evenings while rock bands are expected to prove a popular option for patrons on Friday and Saturday evenings. All areas can be hired for private functions, providing an opportunity for corporate event managers to combine an evening at the theatre with pre-theatre dinner and drinks in a designated area, or a post-show nightcap.

The brasserie is open for lunch from 12pm-3pm Monday to Friday and for dinner from 6pm. On weekends, the brasserie is open from midday until late.

Reservations and enquiries for the new Yardhouse Bar and Brasserie can be made by contacting the venue on 9212 2111 or by visiting the website, www.yardhouse.com.au.
