Overview
It's not like we need much more of an excuse than a couple of balmy, sun-drenched days to get out there and enjoy Sydney summer. But if you could use a little extra push, Merivale has it sorted. The hospitality heavyweight — behind venues like The Newport, Felix and Totti's — has launched a new initiative, called This Is Sydney, encouraging locals to head out and enjoy an extra tasty program of discos, free gigs and half-price food.
Half-price food? Yep. Merivale is offering a sweet 50-percent-off all bar snacks in all its CBD bars — from now until the end of summer. You can grab those half-price bites between 11pm and 12am from Tuesday to Saturday at eight venues: Little Felix, Palmer & Co, Bar Topa, Pool Club, Charlie Parker's, Establishment Main Bar, El Loco at Slip Inn and Palings (not on Saturdays for this last one, though).
Once Bar Totti's and Jimmy's Falafel launch, you'll be about to find cheap late-night bites there, too.
Some of the discounted snacks you can dig into include $8 three-cheese toasties at Palmer & Co, $5 patatas bravas and $2.50 gildas skewers at Bar Topa, and $6 sweet potato hummas and $9 burrata at Charlie Parker's.
