The Linnean

The Push and The Linnean located on Level 4 of Hotel Palisade welcome your private lunches, late night revelries & exclusive cocktail parties. The Push takes its name from a notorious larrikin gang kicking around the hood in the late 1800’s. Just next door is The Linnean which derives it’s name from the great Linnean Society of London – a league of brilliant minds with a penchant for the scientific and historic.

Both rooms lead onto a terrace balcony perfect for knocking back one of our signature cocktails and taking in the views of the beautiful and picturesque Millers Point, Harbour Bridge and Sydney city skyline.

The scene

Step back in time as you enter the character filled Public House located at ground level of Hotel Palisade. If you listen closely you might still hear the jeers of the larrikins and ‘wharfies’ coming to drink after a day waiting for ships to dock; or the cries of mothers calling in their little ones after a long day of riding billy carts and playing mock war games on the streets.

Refurbished in mid 2015, the design was inspired by the small trades of eras passed and reflects the industrial roots of the local neighbourhood. As you sit back and satiate your appetite with a quenching beverage and more than satisfying pub feed, take a moment to soak up the rich history to Hotel Palisade and admire the bespoke fixtures and fittings handcrafted by the finest artisan tradespeople.

The Parlour Room is a semi private space at the back of Public House and can be booked out for private gatherings and casual soirees.

Design

The building was buit in the 1900's and is heritage listed. It was the building at which the first Harbour Bridge engineers stayed whilst working here in Sydney.

The Anzacs drank at the original bar downstairs before they boarded the ships to Gallipoli and the feeling of the building and that vibe that it gives, makes it easy to picture the ol' fellas sitting here as young men guzzling a pint.

Inspiried by the past and present, the pub has been refurbished by creative and talented Australian historian and designer, Sibella Court, who has filled the space with Australian furniture, hand-tickered and with only the finest details.
