Sydney Harbour is an inevitable location in this list and it’s not only because of its iconic entertainment venues, restaurants  and live street performers. Cruising has always been a part of Australians and the Sydney Harbour cruise with lunch and views is one of the most desired group activities in the city.

Surly’s American Tavern, located at the heart of Surry Hills, is one of the best venues to get your gang together and have a fun night out, Nashville style. A constant entertainment area and a quick getaway from the daily grind, the tavern offers delicious food, cocktails, free arcade games and even live music. The food, especially the burgers and bbqs are a staple that keeps the visitors more than just well fed and the creamy and crispy collections of sides and homemade dips takes the menu to the next  levels. Challenge your partners to a dance off or go against them in the plethora of arcade games and burn those bbqs or just lay back and ease up with a drink inside Smokey’s Cabin. People usually come here for a fun night of entertainment but they usually stay for the food.
