The Royal Exchange of Sydney Reviews

Enjoyed my two course lunch, good quality food and top service. try the Beef Wellington!!

A fun place with a cracking rooftop concept / retractable roof bar. Only issue is if cigarette smoke bugs you - the roof top bar (Taylors) will probably be a mild struggle. Someone hasn't quite worked out that smoke doesn't respect a sign post telling it not to pass that point

Attended the ServiceNow workshop. 3xcellent location and nice ambience

Newly painted adds to the ambience of this popular place to eat

Had my 21st celebration there. Peter was so thoughtful and lovely. He offered his advice and assistance.

Club atmosphere, fine dining with a casual touch. The daily specials are always the best us always

Really class place for a business meeting. Professional service and great coffee. Will definitely be going back there.

The Royal Exchange is back folks!
I was in between meetings and popped into The Whool & Wheat Bar for a delish steak sandwich. The interior and bar looks fresh. I will be back for a few beers soon or even a dinner in The new Dining Room. Great service too! Thanks Team :)

Wonderful experience. The food was second to none. Beautiful location and atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Great ambiance and service. Disappointed with their beef Wellington. The beef was tender but too salty and it was more like a beef pie. The crusty lamb cutlers were good.

Top class venue. Elegant surroundings and friendly staff.

This place is peculiar. Its downstairs (always interesting, I tend to leave my dignity at ground level before heading subterrain) and you are fronted with a club/rsl style sign in desk.

Moving forward from that we were promptly greeted and shown a white clothed table. Power broker oil paintings on the wall. Comfy chairs and decent non-rocky table.

My thoughts- good grief this could be an expensive lunch.
Said to be Italian but not a particularly traditional Italian vibe, feel or cuisine. interesting.

+ Was in a burger mood so that's what I had. V good
+ Menabrea Italiana Birra in the bottle. V good & cold glass provided. win.
+ nice interior, cool but perfect room temperature
+ no view / street distractions keeps conversation more focussed.
+ good service

- only one craft beer on tap (was a Murrays Whale Ale I think - and if you've read my other reviews you'll know I'm not big on the craft scene)
- would be good to have better beer range
- not many places in Sydney have no view in some shape or form and remain viable
- Staff dress code paradox- waitress was undressed (plain black shirt), Waiter and barman long sleeved collared shirt very presentable.

Plan on returning.
Smart casual vibe with weekday lunch clientele mainly businessy.
Low key but a well run operation, meals arrived within 15-20min happy window.
Bene :) 3.75*

Good coffee, nice and private from street, food is also some of the best cafe food in Sydney.
