  • About
Pier is blessed with a wonderful location, perched on a marina jutting out over the waters of Rose Bay on Sydney Harbour. The wall-to-ceiling windows of this finger wharf ensure that the restaurant is enhanced by plentiful natural light by day and a gently bobbing harbour vista by night. The elegantly clean interior is almost a backdrop to the harbour panorama that diners enjoy.
To enhance the atmosphere, diners are seated at tables denuded of all cutlery, crockery and napkins. All that awaits them are artful coloured glass charge plates, sourced from a local artist, and pale blue water glasses arranged with precision on a freshly ironed tablecloth. The service is then ‘constructed’. Once the order is taken, the waiter, wearing white gloves so as not to smudge the silver or glassware, removes the charge plates and returns with a plateful of customized sets of cutlery for each diner and napkins draped over an arm.
