One of my favourite bars. I love the vibe and views. Plus great drinks, food & service. Will definitely be going back to this place.
From the moment we walked in we were treated extremely well, warm and inviting staff regardless of some bad reviews I had read, we could not fault the staff at all. Not only did they present themselves well, they were always smiling and engaging. The male host was amazing, he couldn't do enough for us and sat down with us to discuss our choice of food. Food plates are a tad small, so probably best for 2, but solution is order more. Is more expensive than other venues, however having that view makes up for it. Toilets are communal, not in my favour. Great ladies afternoon out.
Wonderful view, food was excellent and service good, wish there wasn't a 2 hr sitting at lunch time, but we were accommodated on level 4 to continue with our afternoon so it was fine overall.
Overall great service and food was delicious, good for sharing; must also mention the spectacular view from almost every angle! Will definitely be going back sometime soon.
Great location overlooking the bridge and outer islands. Food was excellent and share plates was a good option for our party of 4. Staff friendly and efficient and prices reasonable. Def recommend.
Amazing as always. Food, view, venue and staff were all amazing. The crab rolls were a hit with our entire group. Would recommend the venue for anyone looking to experience the best Sydney has to offer
Amazing food and service, but that view... how could you go wrong?! Great for girl lunches or showing off to non-locals. Can't wait to return.
Great place to wile away a Saturday afternoon. Can get a bit busy and the two Hour booking times are bit OTT when you want to make an afternoon of it, can get very hot up there on sunny days
Don't be fooled by the size of the kitchen - the food that comes out of there is seriously good. Sensational view of Sydney's waterways too. Delightful venue - this is a much nicer option for travellers who need city-convenient accommodation in one of inner Sydney's few remaining villages. Sure beats staying in a huge multinational hotel chain!
Fantastic harbour views, food & service was excellent. Only thing was the lift to soo slow! loved it will definitely be back and bring some friends.
Visited for lunch with friends on a Monday - very relaxed, and not too busy. Good food, nice service and a decent wine list. Wonderful views too.
great location and views, nice staff here, wonderful drinks and food, the best place for couples or friends, also suitable for group getting together here.
It is a great place for fine drinks and amazing view It is expensive and wait staff are arrogant Nice place for special occasions and to take visitors
Amazing view and great food - I took my significant other for our anniversary lunch and he loved it. We sat on the balcony overlooking the Sydney harbour bridge - impressive.
Great vibe, excellent view, superb service, delicious food and drinks. Very pleased to find this special spot. We are sure to return sometime soon for more.
View to write home about. Gorgeous food and a great wine selection. The proper vantage point to see Sydney harbour at its best. Hidden away on top of an unassuming pub. Magic.
I had organised for a bridal party to celebrate at the Palisades and boy what an excellent decision that was. What a great venue. Staff were extremely helpful. Food and drinks were excellent. This will be a local from here on in.
Beautiful rooftop bar, a real gem in barangaroo. Food was great, but really it's the view you go for. Need to book if a big group.
I was disappointed that I phoned the restaurant asking to change the reservation from 6 people to 8 which I was told I was unable to do however when we arrived the table was set for 8 people (2 friends missed out). Other than that the food was sensational.
Amazing location, food and really good service from the staff. Helped with both the seating by moving us away from a noisy table (without us asking) and perfect advice on the food menu. Tuna tataki was excellent.
Not the best experience - went to order drinks and was told it was table service and someone would be there shortly, after 30 plus minutes went and ordered drinks! Went upstairs to eat, the music made it near impossible to talk, food was ordinary and portions small, view was amazing and watching the sun set over the harbour great. Great venue but need to lift the game for service, expensive night out.
It's a Beautiful destination with great views. Staff was very helpful. Food was amazing. All very pricey but worth it for the location. I'd be back. Perfect for overseas visitors.
Our 1st wedding anniversary was perfect. Staff are very attentive and the food was delicious!
Amazing food and excellent services. My favorite place. Sensational Views over Sydney. Best experience and will be bring clients back to this hidden gem, thank you
Fabulous service, food, cocktails and decor... along with that amazing 360 view of Sydney and the harbour. Hard to fault! Wonderful lunch thank you, we will be back.
Delicious cocktails at this great venue. Henry Deane has the best views of the Sydney harbour. Service is friendly and food very tasty. Highly Recommend!
Great food, good service, spectacular views and atmosphere. We went midweek to avoid the crowds and really enjoyed it, would be wary of coming here at the weekend without a booking.
Loved it the staff were great, the food was so good I could have eaten about 10 of the oysters yummy! thanks Team Henry Deane.
Amazing views, wine, food and music. Staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed. One of the highlights of Sydney and a must do!!
The service was excellent, the food was great location was spot on. the luncheon was a very enjoyable experience and we will go back, and I will be recommending it to my friends .
I had a wonderful lunch, I met up with an old friend who I hadn't seen for 30 years. The venue, the food and the service was perfect.
Lovely views of the harbour and awesome ambience inside for a daytime lunch. Really well rounded food menu and very creative cocktail menu. Would definitely go back again!
Food was lovely as was the view. The waitress was not very friendly and somewhat tainted the experience. View was amazing as was fit out. Will come back.
Very busy and you could feel the complete stress from staff. No food menu given for lunch just drinks menu so we sat for half an hour before being able to grab someone to ask for the food menu. Felt like time on every seat we sat at was very limited and like we were going to be pushed off by staff who kept reminding us of the next booking. Cocktail tasted like salty water 😣. After lunch for the two of us we went downstairs and asked for a table for 10 as we had other guests arriving. We were told if the other 8 people did not arrive in 15 minutes we would loose the table. Everyone arrived but 2 people who were still on their way. We were then told we would have the two chairs for the remaining guests given to other people as they did not want to turn away business meaning when the two guests arrived there would be no seat for them. Not worth making it so difficult for a large group just to get a few more $ from someone else by taking two chairs away. Just made the whole experience unformtable and stressful. I had a headache after the evening. The guests arrived luckily and we managed to keep the chairs. It just isn't a relaxed experience. We were also constantly asked if we had ordered drinks and yet the lady asking could not take our order only another lady who rarely came over the to table to ask us. It was like the woman asking was ensuring we were spending money and yet the service to order drinks was basically non-existant. This all created a completely stressful atmosphere with staff wanting to pull money from you. Won't go again. View is great but not the customer experience.
Good food, views and service with a smile. Always attentive. You need to be able to adapt to the share plate style and set time slots, but it isnt hard. Great wine list.
Amazing views, almost 360 degrees. Really can't beat it. Also food, cocktails and service were great so win win! Perfect spot for a private party.
I dined here today with a friend from interstate and despite the weather it is a fabulous location with amazing views. The fit out is beautiful and the food and service were excellent. I thoroughly recommend Henry Deane to anyone.
View is the winner here. Menu had a heavy seafood focus which limited us. Unfortunately, the kitchen didn't cook our meat to order either. Cocktails are lethal but still reasonably balanced. Second visit was not as the first but I think still worth the long ahead advanced booking.
We love this place. Amazing views of inner harbour, Barangaroo headland and around to the harbour bridge. Great staff, yummy food and good wine and drinks list. Not cheap, but worth it for the venue, view and service.
Good food and great views. Service could be a little more attentive - drinks came out at different times and we could see our drinks just sitting there... Should also offer coffee.
Wonderful space, really lovely spot. Great food too. Highly recommend!
The food was great, the service was excellent and the view to die for ! Our family from Melbourne were suitably impressed. Would highly recommend .
Wonderful views of Sydney Harbour ,Sydney Harbour Bridge and Barangaroo. Beautiful tasty shared plates , great cocktail menu and fantastic service by the staff. We will be back !!!
Great venue, stunning views over the city! I really like what they have done with the place, the new interior looks great. There is a great atmosphere, good music, the food is fantiasitc and good services. Very friendly and helpful staff!
Delicious food, great views and very comfy seating. The staff are attentive and friendly and the drinks are great. Not many places can beat this on a beautiful Sydney day.
Fabulous views, great music & atmosphere... the perfect place to take our interstate visitors. Cocktails & food were also top notch... great little find. Will return.
Great views and staff very attentive & polite. No coffee machine anywhere in the hotel though - a mystery as most bars these days have them, esp as they serve quite a lot of food.
Fantastic food. Menu is very short, but the kitchen is very small, so understandable. We had all veggo options, absolutely yummy all of them! Service was a little slack, but with the views and food - we let that slide.
Awesome food ! Loved the experience and will definitely be back again. Wine menu is also brilliant and you can't get past the view on a sunny day.
More a place of style over substance. We've been before for drinks, which was lovely. This time, drinks were still great, and food was nice, but dining experience sub-par. Service is snooty "haven't you been here before" (yes, we had, thank you), and table seating not suited to <4-6 people as couches etc encourage intimacy with those you are seated next to , rather than across from (eg if you book for two, one of you might be sharing a 3 seater lounge with two other strangers sitting > 1m away from their partner across a small table). We ended up with a nice table outside but food was missed from our order (so we had oysters after our lamb) and the overall feeling was the staff didn't want to be there. A sensational location with excellent drinks and good food but they need to up the substance (in terms of comfort and service) beyond the style to be a really classy venue.
