A Sydney pub is bucking the trend by declaring war against hipsters.

The Abbotts Hotel in Waterloo recently reinvented itself as 'Sydney's last real pub', banning man buns, moustaches and fedoras and welcoming tradesmen wearing hi-vis vests, thongs and singlets.

Fancy craft beers and smashed avocado have also been shunned in favour of $5 VBs, $10 chicken schnitzels and Friday night live music.

The Abbotts Hotel has created this sign as part of its reinvented imaGE, where man buns, moustaches and fedoras are banned but hi-vis vests, thongs and singlets can get you through the door

The Abbotts Hotel in Waterloo has reinvented itself as 'Sydney's last real pub'

'Here at the Abbotts, we're not rude to you, we don't think we are too cool, we won't serve you overpriced food and drink, We're Sydney's last real pub. No hipsters allowed,' a recent post on the hotel's Facebook page states.

A VB will set you back $3 more at the trendy Bondi Icebergs, where you'd pay a whopping $27 for a chicken schnitzel.

'Around us, we've seen all the hotels become hipster havens, with 37 different types of beer on tap and everyone has sleeve tattoos and beautifully manicured moustaches,' Abbotts Hotel publican Bill Smith told The Daily Telegraph.

There's no fancy smashed avocado on the menu at Abbotts Hotel

'So many hotels say no work boots, no hi-vis gear after 4pm. The tradies coming in say it's so unusual, they tend to be looked down on.'

The hotel's new reputation doesn't appear to have sparked any social media backlash from the locals.

'No hipsters bro, this place has to be good,' one man commented.

Another commented: 'VB will keep them away.'

The Abbotts Hotel prides itself on being a tradesmen-friendly zone rather than catering to the hipsters

Three hundred metres down the road from Abbotts Hotel is the hipster-friendly Lord Raglan Hotel, which became a specialty craft beer bar several years ago.

The currently vacant Alexandria Hotel bought by Justin Hemmes and the Merivale group for $10 million is also expected to become a hipster-friendly establishment when it's refurbished.

But Mr Smith told The Daily Telegraph that he 'won't be too much of a stickler' in enforcing the ban.

'Hipsters are still welcome here, but the guys working on-site will probably not be welcome in Justin's site when it opens,' he said.
