About Entire Venue @ Stanley's on Stanley

Stanley's on Stanley is a small bar on Stanley Street in Darlinghurst, and exclusive hire gives you the run of all of it. The front has comfortable booth seating and a long bar, with high tables and a DJ booth around the bar-service area. The middle section drops to low tables under a large green feature wall, and big glass bi-fold doors open onto a sun-drenched, astroturfed courtyard at the back. That layout is the appeal: three distinct areas in one venue, so a party naturally spreads out instead of crowding one room. There's a dedicated dance floor, professional lighting equipment, a PA system, Wi-Fi and air conditioning. Food is flexible in a way most bars aren't, with your own caterer allowed (a buyout fee applies), while drinks are served by the venue. The venue holds up to 100 guests standing or 50 seated, and the DJ booth plus courtyard make it a strong fit for birthdays and engagements that want to run into the night.
