Visited twice for dinner during a stay in The Rocks. We absolutely loved the menu items across each course, with amazing flavors and high quality ingredients. The lamb shoulder was “melt in your mouth” tender. Amazing cauliflower side dish. The humus dip is spectacularly good and we fought over that. There were multiple Gluten Free options in each course, even desserts! The team are attentive and genuinely friendly. Cocktails arrived quickly and wine recommendations were helpful. Highly recommended!
Amazing views from the MCA Cafe, although there was a cruise ship docked.
The staff were friendly and attentive and we were seated almost immediately. Seating is available indoors and outdoors is at a prime.
Great range of food and drinks on offer with vegan and gluten-free options. We ordered the beer battered fish and chips, burger and dips platter. I also had home lemonade which tasted like a mint julip.
Will definitely be back when we visit Sydney again.
We had a great lunch, really loved the old heritage pub. Staff very friendly and accommodating. The pub was very clean and tidy, lots of cutlery and napkins available at the tables. Appreciate that there were quite a few gluten free options available. The gf pizza base was really nice.
We had almond FW, EB tea, flippin' huge Nutella cookie and the Good Morning roll on gluten free bagel... The team were fantastically welcoming and nothing was too much trouble which is always endearing. That said, the coffee was by far the best coffee I've had since being in Sydney this last week (holiday from Melbourne) and being able to find a breakfast treat that met my dietary requirements was a happy start to my day. Thank you!
The first stop in Sydney, Australia was at Sydney’s Oldest Pub, the Fortune of War!
I sat and had drinks with a friend and was able to order the beef nachos (they were baked) and some truffle mashed potatoes! (I'm celiac and need gluten free) 😋
The staff were super knowledgeable and if they didn’t know something they’d call the chef and ask him! 👍🏼
The seafood, and surprisingly, the steak was absolutely incredible. I was particularly impressed with how willing they were to cater for me being coeliac, and how helpful the kitchen was as well in adapting so skilfully. The food was honestly incredible. The sommelier really knew her stuff, which I really appreciate. And that view! I mean, come on - best harbour in the world. A wonderful meal in an epic location. Worth the cost for a special occasion!
Hickson House is a gem. Well worth the stop. The outside Gin tasting was great and really showed the diversity in Australia Gin with level of flavor and character. While proceeding inside sitting at the bar. The bartender really cared about his craft and was the upmost professional. P.s. the kitchen went out their way to get gluten free cracker for my partner. Hospitality is still alive!
Amazing food!! servers were very lovely and accomodating to my coeliac gluten free requirements. I felt very comfortable dining here and would highly recommend.
Great location good food but not fast. No idea about gluten free because it's order through the ap, so not a fan of that. Bit the food was good enough we went back a few days later. I had a fantastic salad. Kids had burgers (one bunless) water is self serve on the bar
We visited the pub on Saturday for lunch. They use a QR code for ordering and the calamari was marked as Gluten Free but showed chips which were beer battered and not gluten free. Before ordering I checked with a staff member who confirmed with the kitchen that the meal was gluten free. I ordered and it came out with beer battered chips. I questioned it again and the server spoke to the kitchen who said I didn't request gluten free and she tried to put the meal down again and said it was my fault. I showed her the app and showed her it was marked as gluten free and not an option to make gluten free. She stormed off to the kitchen again and came back with the calamari this time with the gluten free sweet potato chip option. She basically slammed the food on the table in front of me making all of us jump and then every time she walked past us or bought more drinks out she gave us incredibly dirty looks. We did nothing to deserve this terrible service and there is an error in the app menu. Wouldn't go back
