Bennelong serves to celebrate the Sydney Opera House and its extraordinary architecture by offering a culturally significant and inspiring menu showcasing a most magnificent production of Australian food and wine. We offer a 3 course menu with sides for $210 per person. Our cooking is not overly technical and tricky – it’s robust and direct – allowing the pure flavours of the ingredients to sing. We’ve enjoyed developing a whimsical dessert menu based on traditional Australian sweets, and the wine list, similarly – is a reflection of the best of Australia – without taking itself too seriously", Peter Gilmore.

Frank Mac's. Gin & Cocktail Bar The original 1840s sandstone walls of the building Frank Mac’s now occupies a 120-person capacity bar which flows from outdoor seating on George Street, across two levels and into a back courtyard. Whereas the downstairs space feels cosy and intimate, dotted with vintage leather banquettes, dark jade and light orange velvet armchairs, low tables and a fireplace, the ground level you’ll walk into off George Street will reflect the energy of the bartenders working behind the almost five-metre-long oak bar. A handful of bar stools provide the perfect vantage point to take in the cocktail mixology while the dark velvet curtains, worn leather banquette seats and cosy fireplace of the ‘Snug’ provides groups of up to eight with a private space to retreat and relax.

    Booked here purely for the happy hour deals between 3-6pm. But upon arrival we were told that they weren’t doing the happy hour over the holiday season which is fair enough as it’s alway busy, but it still stated it on their website and they had posters on the walls in the toilets advertising it. We asked staff and they were unhelpful and their English wasn’t great. Two different staff members said they’d get a manager, but no manager appeared. But on a positive the food was great as always and service was quick, just a shame because we booked to go because of the advertised happy hour and it wasn’t honoured.

    Loved our Happy Hour visit to the Doss House. Our server Lulu recommended a custom whiskey flight and mixed drinks which were delicious. The bartenders are creative & knowledgeable. Try to reserve a table because the ambiance of the Doss House is best experienced inside. We just enjoyed drinks here and it was a wonderful kickoff to our evening. It is a bit pricey but worth it for the experience.
