I haven’t really been to a fancy bar in Sydney! But I’ve glad I went!! I got to love their cocktails, as it was really delicious! I couldn’t taste the bitterness from the alcohol, which is why I would rate this cocktail pretty high!!!! I was glad they named their cocktails based on Horoscopes!!! Such a unique way to do so! Definitely recommending the Gemini and Sagittarius!!! So refreshing and definitely would give you a the best night to remember!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing food, best cocktails we've ever had, and some of the best service we've ever receieved. Incredible atmosphere! The food was very reasonably priced, and we couldn't reccomend it enough
I can only rate this on the interior design and the amazing bottled italian beer as I did not get a chance to eat.
The service here is amazing, the staff are very friendly and super stylish and they were great to have a chat with.
The fit out of the bar is beautiful with live music and really addictive bar nuts to go with my beer.
On the way out I noticed a really beautiful lolly bar fully stocked and took some home to a happy wife.
I MUST come back for a meal! Must!
The best place to have some drink and snacks after work! This talented team can create any cocktail you want! Trust me, you will be surprised by their genius idea! I’ve recommended this bar to each of my friends and clients! Love it!
What a amazing experience at @langhamsydney @observatory_bar with the most unique and innovative cocktails mixology in beautifully moody and luxurious surrounds in Sydney.🧡
I really love it! ✨
Oozing in opulence, the Observatory Bar is right at home tucked into the ground floor of the five-star The Langham Sydney. Yep, this bar is LUXE, with plush upholstered couches, elegant tub chairs, back-lit drinks cabinets and bar trolleys setting the scene.
With the Sydney Observatory just up the hill, it’s only fitting the Observatory Bar shoots for the stars. And the stargazing theme continues throughout a cocktail menu that’s imaginative, unique and quite the magical adventure. The Neap Tide, for example, is a cocktail of wattleseed gin, finger lime, paperbark smoke and sea asparagus, topped with a Sydney Rock Oyster. Expect a lot of native Australian ingredients, as well as plenty of cocktail theatre. While the bar snacks menu also hits all the right high notes.
And the bar might be luxurious, but it’s not pretentious. So if you’re looking for a superior cocktail experience in a place you can actually have a conversation, the Observatory Bar is a star.
Please do yourself a favour and visit this amazing bar! The gin cocktails are my absolute favourite. Super yummy and super aesthetic. The bar food is so unique and yummy too!
The bar aesthetic is gorgeous. The comfy seats, beautiful glassware and attention to detail transport you!
The staff....what can I say. I would pay anything for the service they provide. They are sweet, friendly, attentive and amazing at their job. Everything is prepared with the utmost care and you can tell they love what they do. They are more than happy to make you something off menu or recommend something that suits you. Most of all I feel respected, valued and seen when I go there which is something that a lot of fancy, upperclass bars miss.
And on the price: super super reasonable for what you get. Trust me you will not regret going here.
I'll be back! (multiple time for the rest of my life)
We had dinner at the Observatory Bar. Service by Ed was exceptional! The pink rose is a must try. I tried the gnocchi for main. The actual gnocchi itself was light soft and fluffy with a nice sauce. However, I feel as though there were too many vegetables. We were seated next to the window and we had ants on the table which could not be solved. The desserts were amazing. Complements to the chef. Overall great vibe, atmosphere and service just needs small improvements in some dishes.

Their new pink rose is so good, my love!
It tastes like a sweet wine that little girls like
They also have a new limited series of cocktails for the 12 zodiac signs
Not too expensive, reasonable price range
If you go there, make sure you order a cocktail of your own zodiac sign
Absolutely love this hotel, it has a certain dated yet modern look. It takes me back to something out of the movies, the interiors are super sleek.
Great service and staff st the observatory bar, with new cocktail menu it really is worth checking out. I loved the 'In the moment' cocktail which is close to a negroni but with a lighter flavour. I also loved the splice cocktail which name I have forgotten but it was definitely my favoourite of the night!
You will also find that the staff can make you up any drink you can think of, I asked for something with strawberry and the result was just amazing 👌
Definitely would come here with some friends for a fancy night out, the food is also worth checking out. The beef tacos were delicious! ft

The swanky new bar, located in the heart of Millers Point, on the lower level of the Langham Sydney has opened up as a lounge bar, serving up some amazing cocktails with clever flavour combinations. Themed with a basis on nature and Australian ingredients, the Observatory Bar is not your run of the mill cocktail bar.
This bar is not just for hotel guests, rather a sophisticated space to come as a bar destination for those looking for some quality drinks.
The setting is intimate and the decor is inspired, with a classy bar vibe featuring astronomy themed furniture. The space has velvet chairs, ottomans and plush lounges. Floor to ceiling bookshelves with art and stocked bar trolleys, they’ve done a great job keeping to the theme.
We enjoyed a few special cocktails prepared by skilled Melbourne bartender, Jimmy Burchett, who took over the bar for the evening, with his charismatic and hip personality, serving up some incredible cocktails along with the bar’s signature serves.
Jimmy made his cocktails, whilst narrating the story behind each one, which was thoroughly appreciated.
We tried the BAYSIDE - an oceanic twist to the Southside, this drink features Cedar Fox Dry Gin, sea vegetables, river mint, Strangelove Hot Ginger Beer topped with a vanilla and cucumber foam.
The NOT ON TAP is a dairy free and bourbon shake featuring Bulleit 10 Year old American Whiskey, IPA reduction, Chartreuse Yellow. almond Milk, peanut butter and ripened banana. Sort of like an alcoholic shake!
IN THE MOMENT was a beautiful cocktail to sit and sip on with the Cedar Fox dry gin, dry sake, Imbruglio, lemon oil and spritzed. We loved the kick to this.
If cocktails aren’t your thing, there’s an exclusive and varied wine and rare spirit list to choose from.
The food menu has an emphasis on sharing, perfect to order a few to accompany your drink. These treats are delectable and we very much enjoyed their take on a Saganaki cheese on a crudo, flavoured with slipsmith gin, honey and thyme. We also had the mini wagyu tacos and caviar topped sour cream, shallot and chive donuts.
We enjoyed our visit to the Observatory Bar in the Langham and would like to thank all staff for the hospitality provided. Thank you also to 3 degrees marketing for extending the invitation.
Great cocktails, had the Andromeda after my lunch. Was great. There was a number of more theatrical cocktails being served.. Nice place to sit. Enjoyable theme for the menu.
Jazzy door handles.
Excellent cocktails menu, friendly staff, reasonable prices. Definitely a place for anyone wanting a calm and relaxed atmosphere on the weekend.
Great gin cocktail list. Didn’t think a G&T could look and taste this good.
