Beach Road Hotel - Bondi Beach

Atmosphere: Given that there was an AFL Grand Final, an important Rugby World Cup match between Scotland and England, and several other football games happening, the atmosphere at the Beach Road Hotel was exciting, with crazed sports fans practically bouncing off the walls. The large crowd fit well into the large bar spaces, and the people, the bartenders and other staff were all extremely friendly and personable. I would rate the atmosphere at 5 bottles out of 5.
Drinks/Food: There is a large dining area and the meals did look great, but i personally didn't eat there, but this is the link to the Bistro information on their webpage http://beachroadbondi.com.au/bistro/. The Drinks were generously poured and the rate was a bit over $20 for three beers. Overall I would rate the drinks at 4 bottles our of 5.
Location: The Beach Road Hotel is located 71 Beach Road, Bondi Beach. Its a very large, square, white and yellow hotel, extremely hard to miss. Its very close to the beach so a great place to go for some lunch, dinner, or a few drinks after a day at the beach. However, it was a little confusing to get to directly from the station, so i would rate the location at 3 bottles out of 5.
Interior Design: There were three bar spaces and a dining area on the first level all well spaced and simply designed with wooden furnishings. The outside bar space was decked out with benches and bar stools, with a simple water feature along the back wall and several small trees throughout. Better lighting would have been appreciated outside as it was practically pitch black by around seven. The inside had both a simple bar near the dining area and a sports bar with a DJ and multiple TV screens and pool tables. The upstairs was a little more artsy, bicycles hanging from the ceiling etc. and without the same excited atmosphere as downstairs, but appealing nonetheless. I would rate the interior design at 4 bottles out of 5.

Overall judgement:
Overall the bar was an enjoyable and relaxed environment, a great place to chill out and enjoy a few beers. The friendly and excited atmosphere made the hotel even more appealing and the simplicity of the lay out made it all the more accessible. Overall i would rate the Beach Road Hotel at 4 bottles out of 5.
