CIRQ Rooftop Bar & Lounge

We’ve stayed at Crown Sydney multiple times but never made it to Cirq. It really is as good as you expect it to be. The food and drinks are exceptional, albeit expensive. We spent around $200 for a Tasting Menu and cocktail each. The view is obviously what you come for. Some of the alfresco seating can be closed off when it gets a little windy, which I imagine is often when you’re 40 floors up.

Spectacular rooftop bar and restaurant! We booked for the sunset for a special occasion and were given a window view over Barangaroo and Darling Harbour. Thank you! The atmosphere was lovely and vibrant, with upbeat music and a few celebrations and parties around us. It’s a young crowd… so we felt young too! ◡̈ The cocktails were great and we had a platter to share some antipasto. A wonderful place and view and a great place for a romantic night, a celebration or hosting some visitors from overseas. Very professional service staff, very well trained and attentive to everything.

Food and drinks were good. Food if you're a big eater the meals are just snacks unless you're spending for a seafood buffet. View is good looking towards darling harbour, and out to the observatory park, harbour bridge and operah house although not the best sunset view.

An exceptional dining experience that fully deserves its three hats. From the moment you arrive, every detail feels considered and effortless, setting the tone for an evening of quiet luxury and culinary excellence. The cuisine is nothing short of outstanding — each dish is meticulously crafted, beautifully presented, and perfectly balanced. Flavours are refined yet confident, showcasing premium ingredients and technical mastery without ever feeling overworked. Every course flows seamlessly into the next, demonstrating a clear vision and respect for both tradition and innovation. Service is impeccable: warm, knowledgeable, and intuitively attentive without being intrusive. The team moves with precision and grace, enhancing the experience rather than interrupting it. Timing is flawless, allowing diners to fully savour each moment. The atmosphere is elegant and composed, with a sense of calm sophistication that encourages you to slow down and enjoy the artistry on the plate. It’s the kind of restaurant where excellence feels natural, not staged. A truly memorable dining destination — thoughtful, polished, and executed at the highest level. An experience that lingers long after the final course.

Breathtaking views over harbour bridge and darling harbour. Contemporary bar with great food options makes it a great venue for that special date. It will not fail to impress. We had our office Christmas party there. The selection of the drinks, canapes, sushi, cheeses and cold cuts with jams and artisan bread, and other dishes were quite yummy. I would definitely go there again.
