Venture off Kent Street and down the unsuspecting alley to find yourself in our hideaway courtyard. Welcome to Since I Left You (SILY), one of Sydney CBD's hidden gems. Nestled between three heritage-listed storehouses, SILY's open air courtyard comes alive with luscious plants, playful fairy lights, and vibrant murals by prominent street artists. As one of the first small bars in the city, we’ve been open for over 13 years, and private functions have always been a key part of our operation. We’ve held countless birthday parties, engagements, corporate functions, weddings, and we’ve even had a hand in a couple of proposals. Specialising in cocktail/canape style events for up to 60ppl, SILY is the perfect place for an intimate and unique wedding party.

If you get exclusive hire of the venue we can make our catering menu available to you, which generally consists of the following: • House marinated Sicilian Olives • Guacamole and Tomato Salsa with Corn Chips • Mini tomato Bruschetta • Smoked Salmon Blinis with Gin and Tonic Creamed Cheese • Kofte style meatballs, with a tomato chutney dipping sauce • Nacho Tostadas • Satay Chicken Skewers • A selection of Gourmet Toasties cut into bite sized pieces For a group of 60 I would recommend spending around $1200 on food, and for that we put together a selection of all of the above, which comes out in a steady procession throughout the evening. But you could of course spend more or less, and we can vary the amounts of each accordingly. We can also offer a large cheese and antipasto grazing table for $600 If you're looking to do the Catering Menu and the Antipasti Table I can do that for $1500. No problem to bring your own catering in either, just be advised that we are not able to offer an area for catering to be prepped in. Our current regular menu is available on the website (www.sinceileftyou.com.au), which has more information about drinks which are just charged on consumption.
