Love tennis, but don’t love how much an airfare cost to get to Melbourne to watch it?
We think everyone can relate.
Here are some spots in Sydney that will allow you to eat, drink, and be merry while the tennis is on in the background.
Get into it…
The Australian Open is back, and Jacksons on George is your ultimate CBD viewing destination – screening all the action live across the venue. Watch every serve, rally, and match point on the big screen at the rooftop, or soak up the atmosphere in the Public Bar, with matches playing live day and night.
Between sets, enjoy happy hour from 4–6pm on the rooftop and in the Public Bar, along with daily food specials to keep you going:
- Monday: $25 rump steak
- Tuesday: $20 pasta special
- Wednesday: $20 schnitzel
- Thursday: $20 Parmi
For a more elevated experience, Bistro George downstairs offers the perfect spot to wine and dine before or after the match.
