Great for post-work drinks, especially on a Friday night. It's always packed though, so definitely not a place for first dates unless you don't mind spending 10 minutes trying to find a spot and then having to give up and standing around awkwardly instead.

Other than that, great view, great weather (well, that depends). I've always loved an outdoor bar, and the Opera Bar is one of Sydney's best.
