Frequently asked

Which waterfront table has the best view?

The eastern glass at Walsh Bay looks straight across to the Harbour Bridge and gets the last of the light. Note the request when you book rather than on arrival. Tables are allocated on the day at the venue’s discretion, based on availability and the weather, so a particular table is never held against a booking.

Can we eat outside on the water?

Yes at both. Walsh Bay has boardwalk tables along the pier and Pyrmont has an open courtyard with heaters. Outdoor tables cannot be guaranteed in bad weather.

Is there a waterfront option for a wedding?

Full venue hire at Elements Bar and Grill Walsh Bay is the other option.

How far are the waterfront venues from the city?

Walsh Bay is a 15 minute walk from Circular Quay. Pyrmont is 300 metres from Pyrmont Bay light rail and a ten minute walk around the bay from Darling Harbour.
