About Exclusive Hire @ Pumphouse Sydney
Pumphouse Sydney sits on Little Pier Street, a block back from Darling Harbour and a short walk from the International Convention Centre. The building is a converted pumphouse, and exclusive hire means the whole 378sqm of it — not a roped-off section of someone else's night. Capacity runs to 418 guests standing or 248 seated, which puts it in a bracket most inner-city venues can't reach. That scale suits a big work Christmas party, a milestone birthday with a long guest list, or a launch where people need room to move between a bar, a dance floor and somewhere to sit. Food and drinks are handled in-house by the venue's own catering and events team, so menus, beverage packages and staffing come from one place rather than being coordinated across suppliers. The building carries its industrial character honestly — exposed structure and hard surfaces — which takes styling well if you're bringing in lighting or decor.

Just off Darling Harbour but great if you can go when it’s not too busy. Good array of tap beers (the beer flutes are good) and some good wines too (go for the Chateaux Tanundra if you like Shiraz). Get a seat outside an…

Just came here for a drink before a show at the ICC. Have done it before because here is really the only pub nearby. Every single time, no one can pour a beer. The picture is after Iasked the guy to put a head on it for…
