The Grounds of the City
The Grounds of the City in Sydney CBD, exudes opulence and vintage charm reminiscent of the Orient Express, meticulously designed by Acme & Co. Every aspect of the cafe-restaurant, from intricate timber joinery to antique crockery and furniture, aims to create an immersive experience akin to stepping into a bygone era. The menu offers a diverse range of dishes, including snapper ceviche, poke-like chirashi salad, and classic comfort foods like burgers and steaks, all complemented by a 1920s jazz soundtrack and attentive service, including a dedicated coffee sommelier.
Brought to you by the team behind Sydney’s most Instagrammed cafe, The Grounds of Alexandria, The Grounds of the City is a haven of old-school charm and romance, featuring vintage decor, recycled timber features, and antique fixtures.
