The Grounds Alexandria is truly one of the most beautiful branches. Lunchtime there is a delight surrounded by greenery and a refreshing atmosphere. They host events that change regularly, adding beauty, creativity, and innovation. You can even book your own events and celebrations there. They also serve great coffee along with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I genuinely appreciate their effort; very few places put in this level of thought and dedication.

The Ground Alexandria never disappoints. The atmosphere is absolutely five-star — beautifully curated and incredibly welcoming. The food is delicious, though I’d say the prices lean towards the higher side. That said, it’s definitely worth it for the quality, presentation, and overall dining experience. The service is excellent — the staff are attentive, friendly, and always available when needed. One thing I particularly love is how the restaurant embraces seasonal themes. Right now, it’s decorated in a stunning Snow White theme, which adds a magical touch, especially for families with children. I brought my daughter along this time, and she was absolutely enchanted by the setting. For our meal, I ordered the Big Breakfast, a kids’ menu item for my daughter, and a Tropical Juice. Every dish was flavorful, well-prepared, and perfectly portioned. The juice was refreshing and paired wonderfully with the meal. Another big plus is the parking — there’s plenty of space, which makes the visit hassle-free, even during busy hours. The only downside I noticed was the limited restroom facilities. Inside the dining area, there’s just one restroom each for men and women, which can be a bit inconvenient during peak hours. Other than that, everything was exceptional. I highly recommend visiting, especially if you’re looking for a family-friendly place with great food, beautiful ambiance, and a unique seasonal charm.

One of my favourite places in Sydney! I've been to The Grounds of Alexandria more than five times now, and I still get excited every time I go. What keeps me coming back is their stunning themed decorations — from Disney 100 to Alice in Wonderland, Snow White, and all the vibrant floral displays, there’s always something new and magical to see. It’s not just a meal, it’s an experience! I love wandering around and taking photos after eating — it’s the perfect weekend spot. Their desserts are absolutely delicious (especially with a hot chocolate!), and the mains are always satisfying too. Whether you’re going with friends, family, or just treating yourself, you’ll never get bored here. Highly recommended for a fun, beautiful, and tasty outing! 📸

We had an amazing experience at The Grounds of Alexandria! Although we didn’t have a booking and had to wait around 20–30 minutes, it was totally worth it. The wait actually turned out to be a nice part of the visit — we used the time to explore the beautiful surroundings and take some great photos. The ambiance is stunning, with so many charming spots to enjoy and capture. Once we were seated, the service was friendly and efficient, and the food and coffee were fantastic. Overall, a wonderful place to relax, eat, and soak in the unique atmosphere. Highly recommend visiting — just be prepared for a short wait if you haven't booked ahead!

A little on the pricey side and often packed with long queues, but worth the wait. The food was excellent — hands down one of the best chicken dishes I’ve had in Sydney, and the coffee was just as impressive. What really stood out, though, was the service: fast, attentive, and genuinely warm without missing a beat. A rare blend of great food and hospitality.
