Cafe Sydney observes a smart casual dress code.

No, Cafe Sydney is a fully licensed venue, and BYO is not permitted.

Our team is highly trained in dealing with dietary restrictions and allergies and will be able to make appropriate suggestions for your guests to ensure a wonderful experience when dining with us. Please let our reservations team know the details of your dietary requirements prior to dining.
Whilst every effort is taken to accommodate guests’ dietary needs, we cannot guarantee that our food will be allergen-free.

Cafe Sydney always welcomes children dining. In respect to other diners, we ask that children remain seated, quiet, and under parental control always. We reserve the right to request that babies and toddlers be taken outside to be soothed.

Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate prams and highchairs in the dining room when the restaurant is fully booked, particularly on Friday and weekends. There is simply no space in the dining room. We encourage our patrons to utilise our in-house highchairs (please request at the time of booking, as we only have a limited number).

A children’s menu is available for children under 12.

All decorations require prior approval from Cafe Sydney. Glitter and confetti are not permitted (including within balloons). Failure to comply will result in a $200 cleaning fee.

You are welcome to organise flowers delivered for a guest. Please ensure you inform the restaurant in advance and include the reservation name and time on the delivery information.

We have a heavy awning that covers the majority of our terrace, which protects guests from direct sunlight and rain. The terrace is a weather-permitting area. In the event of extreme weather, moving inside will be subject to availability on the day. If we are required to close the outside terrace, we will reallocate the bookings to our lounge and cocktail bar. The lounge area does not offer the views that the restaurant does.

1.5% credit card surcharge applies.
10% surcharge applies on all Sundays.
15% surcharge applies on all public holidays.

Credit card details are required for all reservations at Cafe Sydney. Should you cancel your reservation within 24 hours of the arrival time, or fail to arrive for the booking, a cancellation charge of $100 per person will be incurred. Please note, group bookings and events hold their individually agreed-upon terms.

Cafe Sydney does not have designated parking. 
The closet parking is Wilson Parking – Gateway – 25 Reiby Place, Sydney.

Cafe Sydney is situated directly behind the Circular Quay train station, with multiple bus stops close by.

Cafe Sydney welcomes wheelchair diners and has ramp access at the front of the Customs House Building.

Cafe Sydney has elevator access from the ground floor, a wheelchair lift, and an additional accessible toilet within the restaurant. The maximum capacity of our wheelchair lift is 180kg, for safety reasons, the lift will not work above its maximum weight. In most cases, motorised wheelchair access may not be available due to this weight restriction.

If dining inside, we request confirmation that the wheelchair can be lifted up two stairs to our main inside dining floor by accompanying guests, (Due to Occupational Health & Safety Cafe Sydney employees cannot lift wheelchairs or persons) otherwise reservations are limited to our outdoor terrace.
We kindly request that you communicate all details with our reservation team at the time of booking.
