The Orient Hotel

A favourite watering hole for generations of Sydney locals.

Established in 1844, The Orient Hotel is one of Sydney’s oldest and most iconic pubs, nestled in the heart of the historic Rocks district. With a legacy of fine food, drinks, and good times spanning over 175 years, The Orient is a favourite gathering place for locals and visitors alike.

On the ground floor, the Public Bar and leafy courtyard beer garden offer a laid-back setting to enjoy a cold beer or classic pub meal, just a short stroll from Circular Quay and Sydney Harbour. It’s the perfect escape from the bustle of the city, especially during happy hour or on a sunny afternoon.

Venture upstairs to discover Mrs Jones Terrace Bar and Dining, named after early licensee Jane Jones. This elegant space blends heritage charm with modern style, featuring sliding glass walls and a retractable roof that opens up to the vibrant laneways of The Rocks. The menu showcases elevated pub fare and creative cocktails, making it a popular choice for long lunches, after-work drinks, and weekend catchups.

Whether you're popping in for a pint, celebrating with friends, or exploring Sydney’s colonial past, The Orient Hotel delivers an unforgettable experience with warm hospitality and historic character.
