The Rook - Sydney

The Rook is conveniently located on York Street and is a great spot for Friday lunch or after work drinks. This cool rooftop bar has a great selection of alcoholic beverages and decent food, especially the burgers. #therook

Great attentive customer service. The staff were so friendly and relatable. We had the banquet menu and the sides, burgers and entree was top notch quality. So damn filling and worthwhile!

You'd think that being hidden would detract from a restaurant's popularity, but that certainly didn't seem to be the case when I visited this one. I'm not too surprised however as this is a truly great eatery and one of the coolest restaurant finds I've had in recent memory. A unique atmosphere breathing with life and was savouring every last fork scoop of my macaroni cheese...yes, mac cheese...I haven't tried the burgers but if they can make mac cheese taste gourmet, I have no doubt their burger game is down also. Only thing that stops me from rating it higher are the prices. I really wanted that burger with the double bacon and fried egg but wasn't keen on the idea of parting with $26 for it. If a burger really has to go over $20, please keep it in the low 20s range...$30 for a burger and a glass of Coke just doesn't feel right.

This has got to be one of the best rooftop bar sin Sydney CBD! Come spring and it's standing room only if you venture out here at around 7 PM, come summer and you'd be queueing on the street to get in! No better place for a bit of chin wagging with your mates after work!<br/ <br/ Word of caution there is nothing on tap everything's bottled up!

One of favourite hidden away bars in the CBD. Well made cocktails, good food and good vibe and atmosphere. Does get crazy busy so timing as always, can be important. Midweek after work drink spot probably lets you experience it at its best.
