- WWendySydney •1 review4.0Dined 3 days agoService was excellent. The burger patties had was too raw even though I requested well done & the burger & chips were only lukewarm warm, as was the coffee. Portion sizes were value for money. Desserts did not cater for coelliacs or for nut/egg allergies/anaphylaxis. The booth was comfortable with plenty of room for two people each side but inside was warm but very noisy. Experience was better a year ago when I visited this establishment.More infoThe Grounds of the CityPrice: Moderate• Modern Australian• Sydney CBD•4.4
