Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    One of the many malls found along George Street . A mid size modern mall with a good mix of retail & dining. A decent size COLES supermarket adds to the attraction. Definitely one of the better mid range malls along George Street. Worth a visit

    This is evidently a great attraction for the young and not so young. Plenty of activities, play areas and fountains to engage and excite the kiddies and amuse the adults. Good variety of dining options crowded when we visited so just enjoyed an ice-cream. Not sure what was afoot behind the hoardings.

    Went here a couple of times for drinks and dinner. The place is obviously very popular with locals, especially the after-work crowd from The Rocks. It gets packed from about 5.30pm till 8pm when it begins to thin out again. Excellent selection of craft ales on keg and a fairly up-market pub menu too. Service is charming, fast and efficient. Highly recommended.

    Monday night is Jam night. We turned up not knowing what to expect. The musicians were first class. Service at the bar can be variable but persistence pays off! Good atmosphere with an eclectic range of patrons.

    It is a little tricky to find but we followed the directions from others reviews and found it. Got there early on a Saturday, just after 4pm when they opened and was so glad we did. We took a seat at the bar and the very friendly and knowledgeable staff took their time to talk my fiancé through the different whiskeys he was interested in. I asked for a sweet cocktail and was served a delicious honeycomb one. Highly recommend you check this out. But get there early if you can. And sit at the bar, where you can watch the staff in action.

    Had a great time there for my son farewell on the 13 Jan. The music is the top amusement. Very good vibes. Top customer service! Food need to improve in quality and variety.
    But the ladies toilet need a full makeover PLEASE!!
    Waited for 20/ 30 minutes each time I wanted to used it. Two spaces cube for that kind of crowd is IMPOSSIBLE.
    I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this venue in the future and I will definitely go back.

    We went here as we were on our last day in Sydney and wanted somewhere special to have a drink and great views over the harbour. The views were superb - right across from Balmain, almost to Manly. And the cocktails were very well done with a good range. My criticism is that the bar itself feels like a bit of a corridor on the side of the building and has such huge windows with no shade that the bar became like a sauna. There needs to be better aircon in there. We only had one drink as it wasn't somewhere we felt we could sit for a while. Shame as the views are spectacular.

    After the 3 hour experience of the Bridge Climb a cold beer and lunch was called for and the Harbour View Hotel did not disappoint. A great tap beer selection with a very good lunch menu was the perfect way to finish the climb.

    There is no question CAMELOT LOUNGE is the best music venue in Sydney. The variety of world-class musicians and singers is truly amazing. Whether it's a tribute concert such as the one to Van Morrison, or gypsy inspired M.Camembert or the amazing Nadya Golski singing French songs, the artists are simply superb.
    We went with a party of 20 to the M.Camembert concert a couple of weeks ago, and our party plus the packed audience were over the moon with pleasure. Bravo
    What always adds to our enjoyment is that the limited menu mainly pizzas are always cooked to perfection and oh so tasty.
    We're going on Saturday to one of our very favourite acts. Baby et Lulu, the incredible talents of Abby Dobson (Leonardo's Bride) and Lara Goodridge singing their fun versions of classic French pop songs, always supported by fabulous musicians.
    Prices for the shows, the food and the drinks are extremely reasonable. Important in the current economic situation

    Great pub/bar just off the tourist trail with less crowds and good beer. Historic building with a great stone interior too.

    Solo business trip to Sydney, dropped in to The Rover on a Saturday mid-evening for its vibe. It's bang next to Central so handy if your stay is in the CBD. Left with a happy buzz after a couple of hours at the counter top upstairs. First shout goes to Sabrina and the great team, friendly, sparky and enthusiastic, with a warm welcome and keen to guide through a tasty menu they are all rightly proud of. Next up, the food and cocktails. Had the eel pate and crumpets, Gidley burger and a special desert - a lemon meringue pie. Every bite tells the story of how much effort has been put it to use great ingredients for perfect plates of taste and texture. Sabrina shook me up a great seasonal Playing RL and mixed fab bitter, bold and balanced Negronis, all the time multitasking with chat (thank you!), working her tickets and shaking like a demon. Nice.

    The Rover, you're top of my Sydney list. I can't wait to being back a crowd.

    Enjoyable evening with friends/work colleagues. The darts were fun, although the board initially wasn’t sensitive enough. Quickly resolved by friendly helpful staff. Recommended for a work event as the darts, bowling, pool and karaoke accommodates all tastes! Full bar and usual food choices etc there also
