I just hosted my 21st birthday here and it was phenomenal! The staff were amazing and accommodated every single request (even to the point of making special arrangements for someone who hadn’t submitted their dietary needs). We booked out the rooftop bar and had our own private space - such reasonable prices for what you receive. Bar staff were excellent and engaging with everyone, making the whole experience enjoyable. The events manager facilitated everything to perfection and it was all organised for the day, making it super smooth and easy. Honestly 100/10, venue, service, atmosphere. Could not recommend anywhere else to host your event - it was the most perfect day!

I barely leave negative comments, but this time I think I need to. We have waited for 1 hour and 20 minutes till we got the food which is a bit too much. We had asked staff about the food and they told us we were next in line. I saw waiters bringing food to other tables… I would come back for a beer(if other pubs are closed), but not for food. UPDATE: Now the waiter told us they they lost our order…That happens, but do not tell customers they their order is next in line. UPDATE 2: this is what they brought as kids burger. In the end we got a refund for the meal.

Food was atrocious!! $32 for an overcooked barramundi with 2 limp brocollini & the rest of the plate loaded with @ least half a dozen potatoes to make up the bulk. 4 people; 1 child. 2 fish & chips (hardly any fish but lots of batter, inedible oily, burnt); 1 flat schnitzel so overcooked it could have bounced.. knives had a hard time cutting through. Burnt garlic bread. Kid said YUK to the cheeseburger with no cheese that had a hard bun. Don't even ask me about the pork belly bites!!! I don't have pics of everything.. Everything looked & tasted that it had been pre cooked & heated in a microwave (explains why everything was so dry). And to top it all off, even though we knew about the wait time the dishes came out randomly so a lot where cold. When we left we noticed a lot of meals in the kitchen sitting under the heat lamps. So $250 later with 1 round of drinks & the meals we sailed into the sunset vowing to never return & to let all our friends know. Pity, it could have been so good.

We hired out the Rooftop Bar for our son's 21st. Highly recommended. Fantastic private venue with awesome views. The staff were amazing. Ailish the events coordinator was friendly and super helpful leading up to the day and the staff on the day were amazing. All our guests were raving about it - food, location, vibe, this venue as it all.

We visited last weekend for a bite to eat & a couple of drinks. It is a really nice pub right on the Corso with a slim view of Manly Beach from the rooftop bar. We ordered the Loaded Fries to share & they were really good. The wait time was about 45 mins which we were informed about when ordering which was good but the pub wasn't really very busy. I also like the fact that all reviews are responded to which to me is the sign of a good business who cares about its customers & their feedback.
