Formerly PJ O'Reilly's, PJs in the City is your local pub, located in the heart of Canberra.

Welcome to PJs in the City, a local pub that prides itself on good service, great food and a fantastic range of beers on tap. PJs has been in Canberra for over 20 years now and over the years has built up a great regular clientele of local workers out for a quick lunch right through to others out for a dance on a Friday or Saturday night. PJs bar was designed and built in Dublin and is a warm and friendly meeting place where Canberra’s locals and visitors come together to enjoy the warm friendly atmosphere, great food, all washed down with a nice cold beer or glass of wine in our fantastic beer garden or in the comfort of either of our two bar rooms.

The race that stops the nation. The pub that stops the city. 🏇 This Melbourne Cup, the bets are on you, but the b**rs are on us!

Order a lunch meal Chef will shout you a tap b**r or sparkling w**e. Also look out for our special Cup Day menu and lunch service will be running long, because nobody’s having an early lunch. Now that's what we call a sure thing. 🍺

We've also got a few top-secret Cup Day specials coming out of the kitchen. What's on the menu? You'll have to be there to find out. 🤫

Catch the race live, settle in for a long lunch and make an afternoon of it.
📅 Tuesday 3 November.

The sun comes out for five minutes and suddenly a long lunch sounds like something you should be doing. And fair enough, really.

Our Pasta Marinara is an unsung hero just waiting to satisfy the cravings that warmer weather brings. Mixed seafood, chilli, white w**e and napolitana sauce. Could be worth straying from your usual pub order?

Spring looks pretty good from where we’re sitting. ☀️

Bob Hawke once held a world record for sinking a b**r. So technically, ordering a second pint of Hawke’s is less about drinking and more about respecting Australian history. 🍻

We’d hate to be unpatriotic.

Don't forget to drink responsibly, legends.

SEAN and the H-Cee Family are celebrating 15 years of making music, and they're throwing one hell of a family reunion at PJ's!
Expect big voices, familiar favourites, serious grooves and a dance floor that's going to need a recovery day.

🎤 Saturday 24 October | 9pm 'til late
🎟️ FREE EVENT

Even better, it's all in support of the Kashia Faumui Foundation.

No awkward family small talk. Just good music and a whole lot of soul. 🍻

No one’s ever said: “Gee, I really regret ordering those chips.”

And if they have, frankly, we don’t need that kind of negativity around here.

Get the chips. 🍟

Sunburnt Anthems are taking over PJ’s Live from 10–16 October, bringing the big, loud, sing-it-like-you-wrote-it hits of the 70s, 80s & 90s. 🎸🍻

The sort of anthems that start with “I love this song” and end with the whole table providing unsolicited backing vocals.

🎶 Sunburnt Anthems LIVE @ PJ’s
📅 10 October
⏰ From 8:30pm ’til late

Want a table near the music? Book ahead and add ‘MUSIC’ to your booking notes.

Warm up those vocal cords. Subtlety is not on the setlist.
