• 33 years ago today we opened our doors for the very first time. Way back then we were the only restaurant on East Circular Quay, in fact for the next 12 years it was only us and the little cafe next door. In 2000 the precinct grew up with the addition of the toaster building, a hotel, a bar, another 6 restaurants. 21 years past that and the authority has called time on the very restaurant that paved the way for all those that have followed. Today we are celebrating our birthday and would like to thank the City/PMNSW for putting on what promises to be an amazing event on Sydney Cove just for us.

Happy birthday Sydney Cove Oyster Bar!

    Hospitality 2021.
  • Number 6 on the hit list, who else but our Sous Chef extraordinaire the one and only Patricia Sorahan.

Let me begin... We were lucky enough to snare this super talent as she returned to Sydney after a stint in Noosa Heads. From day one in our kitchen everyone knew we stumbled across a keeper with this softly spoken, hard working and immensely capable English woman. 

You see our kitchen was at a point of change when she joined the team. Some of the old guard had moved on and we were looking to the future for fresh eyes and new direction. As humans we struggle with change but Trish was the perfect person at exactly the right time as we set about implementing a number of changes to our restaurant. Some of those early days were tough sure, but she never complained and like any true hospitality professional she just got on with it preferring to be part of the solution than the problem.

As a boss these are moments you never forget and as the Oyster Bar rolled on and we cleared those hurdles I knew inside just how much I was indebted to her. Looking back now I can say without question she was a significant player in establishing a new culture in what has become one of the finest kitchen crews we have ever assembled.

Trish you are a bloody legend and it’s been an absolute privilege working with you.
