Rooftop Bar
•Why you'll love Bar Ombre
- Offers up an inner-city rooftop haven boasting afternoon aperitivo, light fare & eclectic entertainment.
- With sweeping views of the city skyline and Sydney Harbour.
- Features an open space flooded with natural light, has shelter and wet weather contingency plans.
Right in the heart of Sydney is where you will find a little slice of the Amalfi Coast in the form of Bar Ombré.
Perched atop the Gateway building in Circular Quay, you can expect sweeping views of the city skyline and Sydney Harbour. Dazzling by day and spectacular by night, not to mention the gradient (or in this case, Ombré) of blue sky through to fiery pinks at sunset. Any event will be made memorable at golden hour on the rooftop.
The suave bar is an ode to the Mediterranean nation's seaside haven, embracing a coastal vibrant palette, geometric tiling, and lush greenery, making it the ideal destination for your next La Festa. The space features an open space, flooding the venue with natural light as well as a clear marquee for undesirable weather conditions. Whilst Bar Ombré is full of character and charm, it is your canvas, the venue is simple enough for you to transform to suit your next bespoke event.

Reviews for Bar Ombre
Damien Don
‘Secret’ rooftop bar, tucked away at the back of a shopping mall. Very popular spot so it’s best to book in. We had two different pasta dishes, not spectacular but satisfying and reasonable value. Staff were helpful, professional and efficient. Definitely worth a visit, whether for a meal or a few drinks. I noticed there is a weekday happy hour.

A cosy open rooftop bar. Does not have the full view of Harbour bridge or Opera house. Food and drinks are expensive. Their $29 lunch special is affordable. There is no under cover area so check the weather forecast before going there

Bar Ombré Rooftop is no more than a casual bar & restaurant with partial views of the harbour bridge. The bar is located on level 3 in the gateway complex, which can be accessed via lift or stairs. Upon our arrival, there was lack of greeting from the staff nor do did they seem friendly in anyway. The menu offers typical bar food including antipasti (entree), pasta, secondi (main), sides, pizza and desserts. Because we had an entertainment book voucher we decided to get the 300g scotch fillet ($44), which offers a complimentary main when another one is purchased. To be honest without a voucher, I would not recommend the steak at all just because it’s pricey and for a bar steak which costs over $40 with no chips on the side except for a few asparagus sticks and a decent basil sauce. Our food took a while to be served, considering we were the first to arrive, they had us waiting for at least 20 minutes. We didn’t get a good vibe of the place the minute we walked in, there wasn’t even any music! Bar Ombré might be an okay place to gather for team lunches, but I wouldn’t take your date or hold a party here as it isn’t very pretty or have much of a view.

Decent food. Average place to get dinner, but the service was great.

This is a great bar , good atmosphere and food. The crowd is mixed ages and down to earth. In busy periods, booking is a must. The only issue is that there is no number to call if you need to make a last-minute change to your reservation. However, each time we visit, we have a great time.
