Short menu, loud music and plenty of booze is the recipe from which Mary’s continues to grow.We exist solely for good food, good drinks and Fucking good times. None of the shit stuff. One big fucked-up family. With an open-door policy that lays out a welcome mat for the local wasters, waifs, and weirdos. Open all hours. To all persuasions. For all occasions.But we do a shitload more than that. We’re scene setters. Game changers. Lords of culture. Genre hoppers. Venue builders. Art ambassadors. Musical mavens. Disciples to the lost art of a big fucking night out.Totally irreverent. Undeniably bold. Utterly iconic. Always f*cking delicious!Beers, burgers and good times.
