Why you'll love Kittyhawk

  • World War II Paris venue design
  • Mechanic manual-esque menus to the deep green and brass colour scheme
  • High volume cocktail bar with a high quality contemporary French restaurant menu

Walk through Kittyhawk’s winding entry corridor and be transported to Paris on August 25, 1944. WWII is over. It’s Liberation Day! And what a party that would have been. Named after the WWII fighter jets of the same name, at Kittyhawk, no detail is spared. From mechanic manual-esque menus to the deep green and brass colour scheme, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time (in the best way possible).

Kittyhawk is a high-volume cocktail bar with a high-quality contemporary French restaurant menu. From graze-able cheese plates and charcuterie boards to steak-frites, there’s something to satisfy any hunger. A canapé menu is also available for functions.

There are a number of function spaces available. The Conservatory is a sun-filled room at the front of the venue – easily customised for seated or cocktail affairs. It’s semi-private and conveniently located right next to the bar, so you can quickly replenish your cocktail and get back to lazing by the French windows (which can be opened to let in the breeze). This space works well for mingling events, such as birthdays, engagements, networking functions and Christmas and EOFY parties. For those seeking a more secluded space, The Officers' Mess is a totally exclusive room, accessible by your own private lift. You’ll have your own bar, bartender and wait staff (if required) and the room is yours to decorate and customise as you please. You can move the furniture around, or remove it completely and hire on your own. It’s your space - make it work for you! The Officers' Mess is a very versatile space that suits a variety of functions from birthdays and engagements to corporate parties and team bonding sessions and even banquet dinners. You name it, it would probably work! The entire Kittyhawk venue can also be hired out and, if you combine this with The Officers' Mess, you have a capacity of 350 across two levels.

Kittyhawk is tucked away in the courtyard of the Aurora Place building, across the road from Chifley Tower. It is conveniently located close to many of Sydney CBD’s most popular destinations and both Martin Place and Circular Quay train stations are within walking distance. Although, if you don’t feel up to the stroll, there’s a taxi rank right outside on Bent Street.

Excellent food, tasty cocktails and wonderful service by our attentive servers Mary and Mimi! We braved the Saturday rains to come here for dinner and weren’t disappointed at all. Definitely returning again soon

We cannot recommend KittyHawk and the team there enough! We had our wedding ceremony and reception, and everything was so well done. The staff were friendly and service was exceptional. The food was delicious, and the cocktails were a big hit. A massive thanks to Fiona the events manager who was so easy to work with and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day. We will definitely be coming back soon to relive the moment!

Cannot recommend KittyHawk and the team enough! We had a fairytale wedding with incredible cocktails and delicious canapés. The atmosphere was moody and timeless. Special thanks to Fiona the events manager who was a dream to work with. We cannot wait to come back for our anniversary ✨

The Event Manager, Fiona was thorough prior to our event to ensure all aspects were thought of and covered. She kept us updated with the plans for our event and assisted to resolve any issues prior. On the evening of our event, Paris and Tony looked after us ‘deluxe’. Paris met with us and established the contact people for the evening, additionally the evenings plan in relation to food and drinks were explained in detail. Everything was clear to us and our group - the Kittyhawk events team work like a well oiled machine, we were super impressed by the level of attention we had. The food was great, although sadly we had over catered for our group (or they had a greater interest in the drinks) A great venue for our Christmas party, conveniently located for our team close to our place of work. Would recommend to anyone (we will be back)
