What a great little spot! I love this place and I'm frequently in there. The food is on point and I adore the specials, they're always a little bit quirky and they always work beautifully. The staff are friendly and professional. Special credit to James who is fantastic at his job. Cocktail menu is superb, a good mix for different tastes. The playlist is a highlight also. Funky old-school favs predominate. I can't recommend this place highly enough and I feel like it deserves more credit in the Sydney food/bar scene.

Had lunch with my colleagues, the food was really awesome, tasty and portion was good for the price. The hospitality from the owner and employees were top notch. We had a great experience, it’s really worth the money and would love to come back again!

Snacky Chans in Sydney is a bit of a mixed bag. The vibe? Kinda weird—not sure if that’s the intention or just how it is. But the food? Unreal. Seriously, flavors were next level. Plus, shoutout to the young guy serving us—absolute legend. Worth it for the eats, just don’t expect a cozy atmosphere.
Joy Fernando
Wonderful and attentive service. The young blonde guy was very friendly and professional as well as multi-talented in mixing cocktails! There was definitely no bad service here! Lovely ambience and South-East Asian fusion dishes. The padded booths were very comfortable which overlooked the sushi train. The cocktail names were very creative and in reference to loads of movie references. Definitely a must if you are in the area!

I've driven past this place many times over the years. I'm not sure what took me so long to finally check it out. Now I will go there if I feel like having a fun and funky dinner. I've seen families with young children during the early dinner service, to date nights, to groups of friends just hanging out. I absolutely love the music they play there. Laid back, friendly service, nothing pretentious just lovely. They always have a range of cool cocktails to choose from, and the menu changes from time to time. Best way to experience this place; have an open mind - try as many dishes and cocktails as you can fit into your tummy. Sit back and bop your head along with the music and enjoy your dinner. Personally, we love sitting at the sushi train bar section. Oh.. don't forget to book.
