The team at The Rook are welcoming and friendly and their cocktails are absolutely delicious. Their truffle chips are super tasty, so don't miss out on those!

Great vibe, imaginative and tasty food, really great non-alcoholic cocktails and doing a great job to keep things as Covid-safe as possible. Looking forward to their new menu and theme next month when they switch over from their current gorgeous cherry blossom theme. Fabulous rooftop for a relaxed city lunch.

The decor is nice but food is mediocre. The drinks and cocktails are interesting though. Better suited for drinking rather than for a proper meal.

This dinner was for my daughter and her closest friends to celebrate her 21st birthday. They had an amazing evening and they came back to the hotel raving about the service in particular! Thank you to the team at The Rook for making my baby girl’s evening extra special!

The Cherry Blossom pop up was delightful- definitely Insta worthy. The ordering was very tech savvy - scan a QR code > link to place order online > also pay online. Food then gets delivered to your table. The food arrived quickly and was delicious.

We had a wonderful meal at the Rooks! The new cherry blossom festival inspired menu is exciting and delicious. The restaurant is also decorated accordingly creating a very pleasant atmosphere. I had a shitake infused gin drink...if you are feeling adventurous and like mushrooms go for it!

This is a hidden gem! Nice place to go for drinks and dinner after work. They need some more dessert options though! Could have raised their average spend

Enjoyed a team lunch for 12 people - service was friendly and food was good especially considering was such a large order for a large group. Fun and funky bar

About the restaurant

The CBD's hottest watering hole

A rooftop hideaway located on York St, high above the hustle of Sydney's CBD - that's The Rook.

This cosily lit establishment is always abuzz with thirsty city-goers hankering for a well deserved bev. The drinks list is fab, and the menu is plush with freshly caught lobsters, gourmet burgers and a range of bar bites.

Fast becoming the watering hole for city-dwellers and gin aficionados alike, The Rook is a bar that tries not to take itself too seriously.

Best dish: lone ranger burger with pulled spiced brisket, slaw & corn.
