Tyler Waaler

Great view of the harbour , even if you're looking down at the Argyle . Balcony seating turns over quick on the roof, so scope out a table and swoop! Decent price beers for such a great view .

Jessie Lee

One of bars in Sydney with the best view that over looks the harbour bridge and opera house! Food and drinks are reasonably cheap

Balázs G.

Excellent location, great beer options on tap . Rooftop is a bar extremely noise and crowded . Glenmore Burger and salmon was excellent, portions are medium.

Monтιəl

Good place with great location. City view and Opera House landscape is amazing. Service and cleansing could be better but a good pint helps to relax with that kind of view . Cheers!

Karen Tapia

Great view of the opera house--- the wagyu beef burger was a bit dry surprisingly, but the fries and cider were on point !

Liselotte

Especially when there’s no cruise ship, the view is spectacular! Great place to have a beer when you have visitors from overseas! Good vibe also, the food is okay

Greg Cal

You can't go wrong with this rooftop pub in The Rocks. Decent menu with awesome view of the harbour . Great spot if you're not a local

Jason Denny

Great views from the roof top though it can get quite crowded so be sure to arrive early and poach a good spot. Especially on thurs-Sunday.

Steve Marr

Great views from the rooftop bar . Food was really nice, plenty of bars so you don’t have to wait long to get served.

Phil Buckler

Best rooftop in Sydney. Have a beer with fish and chips looking over the opera house

Ryan Sarver

Great place to spend a lazy afternoon. Beers , wine and solid food -- all with a great view .

Marianne N

Great spot for a sunny Sunday lunch . Packed - glad we booked !

Linda Hong

Good spicy chicken wings . Roof top area is quite small, hard to get a seat. Would have expected them to have some more beer choices on tap .

Miguel Huerta

Cruises ruin the view of the opera house but overall it's an amazing place and one of the best places at the rocks

Martin B

Open again in old glory. Worth a visit... Make sure you go up the stairs to the rooftop .

Justin Van Emmerik

If drinking on the rooftop bring a parachute so you can drop in on the Argyle . Gents toilets are all the way down on the ground floor.

Liv

Rooftop gets very crowded very quickly but is a great spot with reasonably priced drinks too

Eugene S

Head upstairs and get a view on the roof top terrace .

Shamus Wilson

The best spot around the Quay for views , drinks, friends and watching games.

Crave Sydney

On Oct 2, While enjoying 180-degree views of the most beautiful harbour in the world, try a traditional Aussie BBQ with gourmet sausages , steaks and salads . Bookings essential. Read more

Tracey N

Dont drink tooo much on the rooftop .... The stairs could be lethal. Great views when cruise liners arent docked at circular quay. Take a camera .

Jackson Tsai

Amazing view of the harbor and great spot to relax and have a few drinks

PW

Good views and easy to get into: No need for bookings but gets quite crowded . Bar service is laid back so don't expect to be served unless you ask for a drink.

Andre S

Best view of a bar in Sydney . It's just a hotel so nothing special. Pop up to the rooftop for the maximum experience

Cody

Reminds me of Rooftop Bar in Melbourne but with a more pub vibe. Hearty meals , spectacular views , best place in The Rocks

Amy-Lee Wickliffe

On hot days all you want is a table with shade but they always have half the area reserved and only 10 ppl actually show up whilst we're sweltering in the sun. Greedy shade hogs!

Charlie Elliott

Great view of the Opera House! Book a table, it gets very busy at lunchtimes.

Ryan

Good views from certain tables, but not all. Three levels. Food surprisingly good. Squid ink pasta better than your average.

Elliot Chance

Gets extremely busy but has amazing views .

Dmitry Starkey

Great local pub with a nice view from the gents

Abhimanyu

Get in early to secure a table overlooking Opera house ;) nice place

Miles Ng

Scenic views !! Great vibe. It gets really busy tho!

Lee Lee

Spectacular views of the harbour , though can get very busy. Virtually no gluten free options for food.

Adam Chuck

If you have to do anything before you die... It's eat the 1kg chicken wings . They change lives!

Jeff King

A good watering hole. Adjacent to Sydney Harbour Bridge . Away from the maddening crowd.

Mariska Baanstra

Great view if there's no cruiseship. Good food and beers !

Matt O'Kane

Arriving just before midday in summer is the best move to get a table.

Nastja Stacey

Great opera view

Erin Murphy

Really great view of the Opera House from the roof.

Sue Baxter

Drink w a view - can get a bit rowdy on weekends

Pull Pork Roll ftw. Schnitzel wasn't that great though.

Check out the view from the roof deck !

They have great Samsung TVs in most rooms and about 5 in the downstairs bar .

Great view of the Sydney Opera House at night

Jason Arnold

Not sure why the smokers get the best view .
