Frequently Asked Questions

Do you allow Minors (Under 18's)?

Unfortunately due to our Small Bar Liquor License, we are unable to allow minors/under 18’s into the venue at any time.

Do you have a dance floor?

First and foremost Jolene’s Sydney Is an American Whiskey & Cocktail Bar. Due to our license, we are unable to offer a dedicated “dance floor”.

Do I need a booking?

We only take bookings for our 5 booths. The rest of the venue is available for walk ins, although we strongly recommend making a booking for groups larger than 5. During peak hours, we are generally unable to accommodate groups of 5 or more without a booking.

When do you have live music?

We always post the upcoming month of live music ahead of time on our “what’s on page”

We usually have live music from 8pm-11pm Thursday, Friday & Saturday.

Do you host line dancing classes?

Unfortunately we’re just not big enough to do so.

What music do you play?

We always play country & western, specifically music from the 80s to now.

I have a group over 15 people, why can’t I make a booking?

We love our intimate atmosphere at the venue. We’re designed for smaller groups, and due to our small space, we have found that large groups impact our other guests.

Are you guys even from the country?

Yes, our founders grew up near Windsor, NSW and a rural property in Townsville, QLD respectively.

Do you have a dress code?

Not really, but we prefer people arrive neat and tidy…and preferably without novelty party cowboy hats.

I’m a Country & Western singer / play in a band, how do I get a gig at the venue?

It’s best to email us at [email protected]

What time does your kitchen close?

Our Kitchen typically closes 1 hour before we do last call.

On Friday & Saturday Nights our Kitchen is usually open until 12am.

I’m a Hens or Bucks party, can I make a booking?

Unfortunately we no longer accept hens or bucks parties, with or without bookings. Sorry!
