Mietta's Review
Sitting on crate like seats on a footpath just off Chapel Street, looking into the grooviness of The Pound inspires thoughts of Sydney and similar joints dotted along chic Elizabeth Bay. The service is friendly, sometimes, and the menu is short but tasty at reasonable (more like Melbourne) prices. Drinks are well made, and priced in accordance with other Chapel Street bars. Its a great place for drinks and a shared plate of delights after work, or if you live and work around here, you already know how great a spot it is for lunching in the sun.
