Cafe Sydney captures the essence of Sydney from its amazing location on the rooftop of Customs House at Circular Quay with spectacular harbour views, delicious food, an outdoor terrace, cocktail lounge and a relaxed, contemporary interior.
Cafe Sydney's menu is contemporary classic with a seasonal, produce-driven approach and a focus on seafood. The kitchen includes a crustacean section responsible for fresh daily shellfish served classically in the shell with mayonnaise and lemon along with one of the restaurant's most enduring menu items, its seafood platter. The menu is reliant on presenting quality seasonal produce in a fresh innovative manner, remaining committed to the integrity and authenticity of every dish.
Cafe Sydney's wine list focuses on Australia's best known regional wine varietals and brands, offering an extensive selection of wines by the glass.
Cafe Sydney's private dining room is the epitome of style. Located at the north eastern end of the restaurant it boasts spectacular views from a private section of the terrace. The space accommodates up to 14 guests seated and between 35 to 60 guests for a cocktail reception. Cafe Sydney Lounge is one of Sydney's most sophisticated venues for cocktails from classic to contemporary; the team focuses on the purest spirits together with the freshest ingredients to create a high quality and memorable cocktail. Deliciously, decadent cocktails are combined with with an innovative small plates menu.
The intimate and low lit, Cafe Sydney Lounge features glowing tables by Korban Flaubert and Vittoria Bonancini black cane and white leather chairs set against a dramatic feature mirror wall and the energy of Cafe Sydney's kitchen and city skyline. Note: Sunday is the perfect way to spend your weekend, kicking back cocktail in hand for a long, lazy lunch and some of Sydney's best live music.

Cafe Sydney
The venue is perfect. The food is delicious. The staff are always friendly and impeccable. I highly recommend the carpaccio for entree. It's so fresh and delicious, I longed for it as a main.
Great food with a spectacular view. It is worth going for the view alone.
Fantastic views of the Harbour, great food, service and a lovely atmosphere. My twice cooked pork belly was an explosion of flavour from the tender pork roll to the caramelised apple and the strip of salty crackling. Well done!
Dinner here was an absolute treat. The food was fabulous and the staff treated us like VIP guests from the moment we arrived. I couldn't recommend it highly enough, especially for guests from out of town for a special night to remember.
