The Mercantile Hotel - The Rocks

The Mercantile Hotel - The Rocks Australia's Longest Running Irish Pub The Mercantile Hotel in The Rocks is Australia's oldest Irish Pub.
(3630)

Built in 1914 and opened in 1915, The Mercantile was established to replace the old Mercantile Rowing Club Hotel. The rowing club's lease on their old site down by the water's edge expired in 1911 and so they moved their club to Mosman, becoming the Mosman Rowing Club that we know today. The Mercantile has traded continuously since 1915 on the site at 25 George St. Located adjacent to the iconic S

ydney Harbour Bridge in the historic 'Rocks' precinct, the pub has welcomed people from all over the world to experience its famous hospitality and good times. Over almost 100 years The Mercantile has earned a reputation as the home of Irish music in Australia and a place where unforgettable memories are made.

One cocktail. Two bartenders. About three times longer than it needed to take.

Lucky they're better at pouring drinks than staying serious.

Pop in for a drink and keep the team busy. 🍻

The Irish know a thing or two about sporting rivalries, and State of Origin is right up there.

Join us this Wednesday as the Blues head to Melbourne looking to wrap up the series, while Queensland fight to keep their hopes alive after letting a 20-point first-half lead slip in Game I.

Cold pints, great company, and one massive game. What more could you want?

See you at kick-off.

Our new shirts are getting a bit of attention lately…

Apparently, some of you want them as merch. Thoughts?

Spritz season on the rooftop isn’t going anywhere 🍊🍹

Even with the weather cooling down, we’re still up top, still pouring spritzes, still making the most of it.

A little crisp air never stopped a good afternoon.
