+ Very tasty 2-4-1 cocktails. I recommend the Honeycomb, Toblerone, Red Corvette and Long Islands. Most cocktails are in smallish 'whisky' glasses, except for the Red Corvette or Long Island. We had these ones just as the hour ended since they last forever. We were knocking the drinks back as a social but reasonable pace but everyone found that the alcohol content was weak, maybe these are half nips?

A few cocktails no one wanted to finish. Avoid the (forgotten the name here) the milky Sambuca cocktail too since it's mouthwash-flavoured. The speakers really blaring for a cocktail hour and forcing everyone to yell. The girls thought the bartenders were hot enough to position their seats for the view. Seating gets really cramped and dingy towards the back.

Went to Kuletos for a couple of cocktails on Friday night. Lined up like sheep for about 20 minutes to get served. Cocktails were less then average. Poor choices available, seemed like everything on the cocktail list was just a mixture of spirits and soft drinks or bottled juice. Prices are cheap and so is the interior of this small over crowded venue. I won't be returning here, but I suppose this place is good for cheap drinks if thats all you're after.

We're still stunningly amazed that they shelled out to renovate this place. We've been drinking here since we first moved to Sydney; we christened the place or lost our virginity one fair day when we discovered that they had two for one Long Island Iced Teas...that was the beginning of a love/hate relationship with this place.

The renovation is ok...just ok. It aint Melbourne as some people said and in its previous dingy state it definitely had more character (think barons only brighter) but the cocktails are still well mixed and cheap (especially on student night).

Kuleto`s seems to have that Melbourne feel, can't find that in Sydney, the staff are very quick and make you feel relaxed. The new renovation look great, looking fwd to the upstairs bar opening. Great nite out, get in early so you can get a seat.

Happy hour is the best here. Amazing cocktails, tried most of them by now and don't have a problem with any of them. And I luv my cocktails. Agree that the decor especially the chairs in the back need to be changed etc.

We arrived early and managed to get a table in the back but it fast became so crowded that we decided to move on. The decor is pretty rough as are the toilets. I had a red corvette which was great but my friend's margarita was so salty that she couldn't drink it.

I am a Newtown local who drinks here on average about once a year. I don't have a discerning palate as far as the cocktails go. They are ok to me but the interior is foul. How about pouring some money into making the place a little more enjoyable to drink in? Looks like a dodgy amateur theatre set.

Come here all the time and always enjoy it. There are not many cozy little bars like this in Sydney with cheap cocktails.

A good range of spirits and staff are generally happy to make cocktails off the menu outside of happy hours.
