LOCATION
The Tea Room Gunners’ Barracks is situated at the end of Suakin Drive, Georges Heights, and close to Mosman’s commercial district and public transport.

DETAILS
This historic sandstone building commands a spectacular view of Sydney’s Harbour’s shipping channels, Camp Cove, Watsons Bay and Rose Bay. Nestled within the bushland of Georges Head in Mosman, The Tea Room at Gunners` Barracks exemplifies tranquility and beauty in sight of the city skyline. Designed by colonial architect James Barnet and constructed in 1873 the building has had many uses over the 130 years during which the military occupied the Middle Head and Chowder Bay precinct. Treat yourself to an afternoon of splendour and decadence within the beautiful surrounds of this landmark venue. Morning tea is available daily between 11am and 12pm, and our famous afternoon tea is served all day from 11am.

AFTERNOON TEA
Afternoon tea, also known as high tea, includes a set selection of finely cut finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones, preserves and cream, and a range of delicate pastries, served on a silver three tiered stand with Royal Albert china and tea or coffee. Should you wish to truly indulge why not try the Champagne Afternoon Tea which includes all the delicacies served with afternoon tea plus a piccolo of French Champagne.

FOOD & BEVERAGE
The modern Australian a la carte lunch menu, created by renowned chef Marc Philpott, is available from 12pm Monday to Friday, and 11.30am Saturday and Sunday.
