Our Story
Since 1987, Sonnel Hospitality has been at the heart of Sydney’s hospitality scene, growing from a single pub into a thriving collective of venues—including a brewery.
At Sonnel, we’re committed to the guest experience. We believe hospitality is about creating connections – from our teams to our guests we bring people together to share moments and create lasting memories. Our spaces reflect the diversity of the neighbourhoods we serve, and our menus celebrate quality produce and local flavours. With iconic venues like the Guildford Hotel, Crossroads Hotel, and Marrickville Tavern, Sonnel Hospitality is proud to set new benchmarks, delivering purposeful, memorable experiences with excellence at every turn.

Our Vision
Our vision is to create game-changing hospitality experiences that bring connections to life.
With a community-first mindset, we create enjoyable, welcoming spaces where people come together to connect, celebrate, and feel at home. From our food and beverage offerings to programs that foster entertainment, sport, and community engagement, every detail reflects our dedication to quality and the spirit of the local area.
At our core we care about our community. Driven by a passionate and experienced team, Sonnel is constantly evolving—reshaping venues through growth, innovative programs and thoughtful renovations. We’re proud to highlight the talent, diversity, and energy that defines our communities.
Our mission is clear: to bring connections to life by creating places where moments are shared, memories are made, and the community flourishes.
