Titus Jones Bar

A tequila-focussed bar serving spicy margaritas and crispy fish skin tacos.

It’s been 10 years since Merrick Webb stepped away from a marketing position at Warner Music to open Titus Jones, a small tequila-focused bar with one of Sydney’s best Taco Tuesday nights. There’s a lamb taco (meat smoked out back for seven hours), a crispy fish skin taco with tuna tonnato, and “chorizo”-style tofu with aguacate salsa. All the salsas are made in house and everything is gluten-free.

“It’s become such a big part of our identity now … it’s just really popped off for us, especially since COVID, when we had three different delivery services and lines around the block,” Webb says. He stepped up the food and drinks offering after partner Shannon Kean came on board – she’s the brains behind their signature Pho Mary, a Bloody Mary made with pho broth from Khoi Eatery across the road. For kick-ons, wander up to Lazybones Lounge for live music.
