Recently re-opened after a short hiatus to reveal a fresh, revitalised interior, following a cosmetic refurbishment, The Tea Room Gunners’ Barracks is one of Sydney's most breathtaking venues. The result is a softer, lighter colour palette and modern, updated design features including custom designed carpets, wallpaper and curtains, offset with stunning Waterford crystal chandeliers. Located 7kms from the city centre in Georges Heights this historic venue has enabled guests to enjoy fine food and wine paired with the most idyllic views of Sydney Harbour throughout the year.

The Tea Room Gunners Barracks - User Reviews

Kevin:

Today myself and nineteen friends went to the tea rooms, the whole experience was amazing from the moment we arrived. We where approached and greeted and taken to our seats. The staff where fantastic very friendly. I was a little concerned when I booked as the emails where not very direct (I did assume that I was booked in at the queen Victoria building as that's where I thought I emailed, luckily I asked (after a few email) other wise we would of turned up there. The barracks are beautiful.. I won this voucher at a charity ball for the westmead childrens hospital in a live auction, (afternoon champagne high tea ) so I was very pleased that the service was fanatic, the food amazing and plenty of it. The scones, jam & cream HUGE and totally beautiful - the best I've ever had. The venue was brilliant, the view amazing and breath taking. Thank you very much for a fantastic morning. We all loved it(not one person at the table was disappointed ) and will return soon.review  20/05/2012

Had High Tea at this superb location what an experience.The staff were very attentive, the food superb and we were not rushed. The coffee was also excellent for the non tea drinkers. We had the Morning Tea and still had to take home a doggy bag! Can't wait for an excuse to go back!review  21/02/2012
