Circular Quay, restaurant

This heritage listed building is located along the foreshore of Sydney Harbour at East Circular Quay. It was built in 1910 in the Federation architectural style for the workers of wharf facilities here that serviced many trading ships during the early to mid 1900s. The public lavatories remained in use until 1987 when the building was redeveloped and the usage changed to a restaurant. The Sydney Cove Oyster Bar has traded here since.

  1. That's a lovely little place to get something to eat. On the waterfront as well.

  5. I am delighted the wharfies were offered decent facilities. The labouring in summer must have been hot and humid.

  6. What a cute little house... You say that it is a restaurant, but it could easily be some little chapel, in fact.
