What Olivia Celik doesn't like about The Rook:
Tried the Rook for the first time.My wife and I had a early dinner and drinks on a Thursday night. We had a mussel dish and the Challenge Burger. The mussel dish was very nice had a tasty sauce. Was disappointed with the Challenge burger. The beef patty was over cooked, tough and grizzly in texture. The fries where undercooked. We finished the meals with the only two available desserts.

The Rook is conveniently located on York Street and is a great spot for Friday lunch or after work drinks. This cool rooftop bar has a great selection of alcoholic beverages and decent food, especially the burgers. #therook
Great attentive customer service. The staff were so friendly and relatable. We had the banquet menu and the sides, burgers and entree was top notch quality. So damn filling and worthwhile!
Walking into the drab office building located at 56 York Street, don’t expect to find any clues that you’re in the right place. We just followed a group of nicely dressed people into the lift hoping they weren’t Bradley Murdochs in disguise. After asking the lift to take us to level ‘R’, which was as good a guess as any, we shot into the sky and walked out (alive) onto a rooftop space that is all wood cladding and wall art.<br/ <br/ Part bar, part eatery, The Rook serves cocktails of the fancy kind, along with diner food (burgers, fries and lobster rolls). They also proclaim to be gin wizards. I don’t drink gin, so can’t verify this claim.
With nacho sandwiches on the menu, you know this place is serious about their burgers. Whether it's the fried chicken burger, a burger toastie, the lobster roll, or good old fashioned cheese burger, you certainly get your fix of heart stopping cheesy, meaty, greasy, goodness.<br/ <br/ The enclosed rooftop and cozy cocktail bar add the ambience and complete a great little venue.
The Rook is a bar with one of Sydney’s most secretive entrances. You enter an unassuming foyer of a plain office building and press the “R” button on the lift. Up you go, the lift door opens and you’re faced with a cool little rooftop cocktail bar.
