This bar is part of the Marriott hotel, and is a good option if you must eat in the hotel. The access is from the outside of the hotel, basically behind the hotel. The bar features an extensive craft beer selection and typical bar food. We enjoyed trying some of the many beers, while enjoying a tasty cheese burger and chicken sandwich, both accompanied by french fries. The beers were excellent and food was very tasty. In spite of dining at a very busy hour the food was delivered very quickly, and quality didn’t seem to have been compromised. All orders are placed at the bar inside the restaurant. There was a little bit of a line and a short wait, but there are many bartenders so the order process is fast. The staff is friendly and correct. The restaurant has some interior seating but extensive outdoor seating capacity. The outside is very pleasant, with no traffic nearby and overlooking a square with some huge, beautiful trees. We enjoyed our time at the Customs House Bar, and if we want a burger and a beer next time we’re in Sydney, we may very well end up there again. Location: 5/5 Ambience: 2/5 Beer selection: 4/5 Food: 4/5 Staff: 4/5 Price/quality: 3/5 (a bit pricey but good quality)

Great bar with ample covered seating outside. Friendly staff and a good atmosphere. Good selection of beers on tap. Recommend the pepperoni and sausage pizza. Good value for money. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.
