The Best Bars In Mosman Sydney

Only moments from Sydney’s Central Business Disctrict (CBD) and accessible by ferry, train or via the Harbour Bridge, is Mosman – an upmarket and affluent neighbourhood on Sydney’s Lower North Shore. With a breadth of stunning residential areas and harbourside viewpoints, restaurants, and retail experiences, this is a picturesque place to spend an afternoon. When the thirst hits, here are the top places in Mosman to grab a drink.

Set on the doorstep of Mosman is Barrel Bar – a chic and stylish venue which features gourmet wines, tried and tested by their very own in-house sommeliers.

3. The Hunter
