The Opera Bar is a Sydney staple. You can't beat the view over the harbour.

It's almost always busy, so don't expect to sit down immediately, especially in the summer when tourists flock to the Rocks area.

Drinks are a little pricy, but not a rip-off and IMO worth it for the view.

The are various places to get food, ranging from pub grub to Asian dishes. Generally the food is average, as you might expect for a place serving such a large volume of hungry tourists. Watch out for the seagulls in summer - they'll steal your food if you look away for a second!

Mostly this is a great spot for drinks at sunset. Probably no better place on a warm evening.
