Flat white coffee is smooth as silk. Interesting take on gnocchi too...stuffed with cheese and herb mixture tossed in a mildly spicy arrabiata sauce 💜💜💜💜

Generic venue for hen's nights. The sort of result you would get by Google searching "generic hen's night in Sydney". Staff are friendly enough, everything else is subpar. DJ just plays off youtube

Great spot in Cockle Bay Wharf for both food and drinks. I had the lamb skewer. And it was amazing.
Aaron PowellMarch 24, 2012
Impressive happy hour prices 3-6pm and delicious pizzas, if a tad pricey. The view's nice if you can avoid the afternoon sun.
Luna SvendsenFebruary 22, 2014
Amazing food and a great vibe! Definitely worth the price. The sangria is good too!

Try the crocodile burger. Completely worth it

Nice view of Darling Harbour/Cockle Bay. Staff very obliging. Good food. About $15 - 30 per person for lunch and drink. Read more

This place confuses me. Is it a night club or a restaurant? On a Saturday night, the music blasts at max volume. I went home with ears ringing. Food wise, the pasta pizza buffet was below average.

Thyme salted chips that come with burgers are the best chips I have ever had

This place always makes me happy! Over the years staff change etc, but food & cocktails always great.

Great food, a few interesting options, not just bacon and eggs, great service too!
Kenneth ChuahMay 29, 2013
Come here on a Wednesday for a reasonably price beef burger !
O RoldanAugust 30, 2011
reasonable drink prices, a view and a smoking area - if that weren't enough, they've got happy hour 3-6PM each day when some drinks are even cheaper. Read more

Good range of gluten free options, great view of darling harbour.
Alex PryorDecember 23, 2012
Starters are waaaay overpriced. $18 for 3 prawns...no thanks. But it's a good atmosphere at night!

Top quality food at decent prices & a brilliant view of Darling Harbour. Weekend brekky seems to be quiet time.

Don't expect prompt service anytime this millennium

Nice view but today theres a hot wind and I've been placed in the sun

A shadow of its heyday self. Slow service and bad breakfast.
Daniel PinFebruary 4, 2014
Don't eat here! You'll regret it. You've been warned.
Renée Van KraanenApril 2, 2017
What's good here? Nothing. I asked the bar staff for a mojito and they didn't know what it was. "The one with the lime?"
Arron ForresterJune 22, 2013
Very shitty rib eye. Well bungled order.

Horrible. Waiter coughed and sniffed all night. Food was below par. Far better places around.
Daniela SabbioniJuly 14, 2011

Scallop Risotto was fresh and hot but a little bland.
