I honestly don’t understand why this place has such a low rating, because our experience at Bar NSW was genuinely excellent. With great views, a beautiful atmosphere, and some of the best coffee, this spot definitely deserves much more appreciation. We ordered fries, which were fresh, hot, and perfectly cooked, and the cappuccino was absolutely to die for — rich, smooth, and made just right. It’s the kind of coffee that makes you want to come back again and again. The staff were incredibly hospitable and welcoming, making us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. Their friendly attitude really added to the overall experience. The vibe was relaxed and pleasant, perfect for unwinding while enjoying good food, coffee, and views. Overall, Bar NSW is a place that truly deserves a higher rating, and we’d happily recommend it to anyone looking for a great café experience.

The undercooked burger meat was an absolute disgrace. This place is only worth sitting at for the view — have a beer and leave, but definitely don’t eat here. The girl working at the bar was incredibly cold and completely unwilling to communicate. With a view like this, it’s pretty clear why the place is still empty…

Ok so the staff were great! The lady at the bar friendly :) but the prices are insane!!!! The prices need to come down! The burger was overpriced- it was $30 but it should be $ 12-15!! If the prices were reasonable - this would make a great local hang out but they are shocking for basic burgers! The view is great- but it’s lacking an update and looks like an 90’s mall so that kills the vibe!!! Please make this place affordable-and give it a revamp!

Great view, nice service. Food and vibe is terrible. Chicken looked like walking salmonella, could not even bite it because it was so overcooked three days ago, and cold so not enough heat to kill anything bad when reheated. Chips are good. We didn’t even eat half and left. So over priced for what it was too.

This is my first one star rating , i think but cannot help it. Had the fried Steak and what i got was a piece of lether meat in big something crust. To earn at least 2 Stars the prices should be less than half of it. The worst food experience in australia so far.
