The Caterpillar Club is an underground music bar located below busy Pitt Street in the centre of Sydney’s CBD. This recent addition to city’s underground bar scene is easily one of its best, oozing unparalleled style and sophistication.

Although less than a year old, the bar looks as though it’s always been there. With its abstract paintings covering the walls and frilled lampshades hanging from the ceiling, it’s the clear The Caterpillar Club aims to recapture the class of a different more sophisticated time and place.

The bar claims to possess one of the largest private record collections in the world which is displayed almost as an abstract painting, in and of itself, across the back of its long bar. The well-stocked bar could easily be one of the city’s longest occupying an entire wall within the venue’s cozy L-shaped space.

The Caterpillar Club opens late and closes early so be sure to get the there early if you’d like to secure a booth, table or stool at the bar.
