The Harbour 2024
Enjoy fish and chips, oysters and prawn cocktails under the sails of the Sydney Opera House at this summer pop-up restaurant.
Overview
This summer, the Sydney Opera House is paying homage to a beloved figure of its past with The Harbour, a four-week outdoor pop-up restaurant inspired by the original seafood diner that operated in the same location from the late 80s to the early 90s.
Returning for its second year in 2024, the Sydney Opera House fish and chip shop will take over the Northern Boardwalk, serving up a classic Australian seafood spread paired with some flashy additions from Tuesday, January 9, until Saturday, February 3.
Head down Tuesday–Saturday between 11.30am–8.30pm for a leisurely lunch or date night with a difference and tuck into executive chef Lee Thompson's menu of sustainably sourced fresh seafood, crisp-fried fish, crunchy golden chips and other takeaway classics like potato scallops, all backdropped by one of the very best views in Sydney. Or, level up with fresh oysters, fish burgers and a prawn cocktail.
As well as the unbeatable surrounds, The Harbour will feature nostalgic chequered tablecloths, picnic tables and a photo wall featuring historic snaps of the original restaurant. There's also a picnic-ready takeaway menu, perfect for when you want to find your own spot in the Royal Botanic Garden.
