The Mean Fiddler in Rouse Hill

Mean Fiddler Pub, Rouse HillAddress: cnr Commercial & Windosr Rd, Rouse Hill
Phone: 02 8883 4100

The Mean Fiddler offers nightlife, an imaginative menu and alfresco dining, kids entertainment, a great deli and a bottle shop. While all of these offerings make for an innovative complex, it is the historic Irish pub and the recently opened Shear Bar that captured our imagination. In the historic pub, life of another era is replicated; Life, where stunning woods, plush furniture, 1800s chandeliers, working fireplaces and private booths were the order of the day.

Perched above the Irish Bar in a setting of rich woods and antiques, an intimate dinner or a quiet pint of Guinness or Irish coffee with friends captures a slower life – refined, almost genteel – removed from the hustle and bustle of today.
