With a European menu that shifts with the seasons and an ambience that feels grand and inviting, The Observatory offers indoor dining, alfresco options or grab and go from a friendly kiosk.

Designed to welcome 150 guests indoors and 200 more across a sunny alfresco and leafy back courtyard, this all-day spot blends relaxed dining with stand out food and design.

The menu balances Mediterranean flavour with a uniquely ³Ô¹ÏÍø energy. Dishes are generous, seasonal and designed to share, from refined brunch staples to wood-fired pizzas and handmade pasta. Enjoy signatures such as The Observatory Plate — a vibrant morning mezze of Grandmother ham, avocado, seasonal pickles, Bay of Fires cheese and chickpea hummus on Chéri-baked focaccia.

Following the success of The Terrace, The Observatory marks Darling Group’s second location within the Royal Botanic Gardens, solidifying its presence in one of ³Ô¹ÏÍø’s most treasured spaces.
