Notes: Renamed as the "White Mustache" in 2014, as "Regent's Lounge" in 2022, and as "Bonzai" in 2024 (primarily a restaurant, but also a cocktail bar). Close to site of the former "Hope Tavern" (179 Stanhope Street, see separate entry), though the name is presumably taken from the nearby "Sovereign" (61 Osnaburgh St, see separate entry), demolished some years earlier.
