Mrs Jones

Could not have been at a better place last Friday night, amazing cocktails and many more drinks to be had, the food was good pub food. We had the calamari and the three cheese stuffed mushroom, both very tasty. Could not complain about the staff, they were great. Ease through the meal then the dj starts up and the dancing starts. Sensational night, will definitely be back.

The restaurant and atmosphere is great could not fault it, where this place lacks is the staff. I've been there twice earlier in the year and just over the weekend and both times the staff have been uninterested and have the attitude of not wanting to be there AT ALL especially the bar staff. From the Moment you walk in you are greeted by no one, and left standing there waiting for your reservation ( or walk in ) until you the customer have to go on the hunt to be seated. The food is amazing the drinks are amazing but the staff is what bring this place down and leave you with a bad experience.

Named after Jane Jones, a 19th century publican, this new restaurant and bar, Mrs Jones is a hidden gem, found in the upstairs precinct of the Orient Hotel in the Rocks Sydney. Accessed via Kendall Lane, walk upstairs and you’ll find yourself in a cocktail terrace and bar with high tables and lounges, you’ll certainly find this a comfortable and trendy place to hangout. Gone are the days of dancing on sticky floors, drinking and beer skolling, football watching and burger eating of my university days at this place. It is now a refashioned area, an eclectic and stylish space for a more sophisticated occasion, whether that be a few drinks or a meal in the dining area. This is the newest launch by the Ryan’s Hotel Group, and they have done this with precision and style. We were lucky enough to experience some wonderful cocktail concoctions, wine and a three course menu in this beautiful new elegant dining area. Chef Brad Copeland’s menu has a range of snacks and starters to enjoy with your drinks, or some larger dishes like salads and steaks. The food highlights Australian influences of lamb or kangaroo as well as some of your staple pub classics like burgers, schnitzels or Sunday roast. We sampled a three course alternate meal for the launch lunch.The bruschetta, served atop two slices of sourdough with mixed tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella and basil, drizzled with oil. Refreshing and the perfect size for en entree. I’m not normally a fan of eating Kanagroo but this was superb. Really nicely cooked at medium rare, served with rocket and melody tomato, hazelnuts and Persian fetta. It was lovely and lean and well seasoned. For the mains, we received a large piece of pork belly which was juicy, served with boiled potatoes and beetroot. With some apple sauce and flavoured from the roasting juices. The pan fried barramundi came with broadbeans and a herbed salad topped with a parsley butter. We also shared some deliciously seasoned fries and rocket topped with Parmesan. But the chocolate brownie was the stellar performance on the day. A dark chocolate gooey brownie that was crispy on the outside and topped with double cream and honeycomb. It was outstanding and a must order! We also had some Tasmanian brie, grapes and quince paste with lavosh. The food here is certainly much better than normally found at a pub! Quite nicely developed flavours and sophisticated plating. The cocktail menu boasts all your favourite classics. We sampled two awesome drinks prepared by mixologist Tommy Donnison, who has been in the industry for over 10 years. His creations included the Apple and Cinnamon Sour, which is a twist of a traditional whiskey sour and “The Mistress" (named for Mrs Jones) a twist of the traditional Tommy's margarita. Don Julio, agave, lime and grapefruit soda - it was delicious! Perfectly mixed. We also sampled Moet and Chandon from the awesome Champagne tower, fit for Kings. Make sure to make this a meeting place for a few drinks with friends.

Food was average, bar service was bad We purchased a drinks package for 2 hours on New Years and went to order a drink 20 minutes before the package finished. Finally got served 3 minutes past 8 after watching the bar staff chat and ignore people then we got told we had to pay

Mrs Jones was a wonderful venue to host cocktails for my sisters hens. Nikki went above and beyond to make my sisters day special. The booking and communication process was easy all of the staff were warm and welcoming. 10/10 experience. Thank you so much!

Nice food, cheap and nice alcohol.

Nice cozy rooftop location on top of the Orient. Enjoyable afternoon drinks with some close friends and nibblies.

Bought x2 tickets for NYE event which included access to venue and access to fireworks zone. My GF works hospitality and as such could not show until after 11pm. I came at 6pm and asked both at the entrance to the rocks and at the entrance to the venue if her arriving after 11 would be an issue, was told no both times. We arrived at 11:20 and were not allowed to access the whole area without any notice. We missed out on NYE fireworks as a result. I emailed the venue the next day and they simply didn't respond. Congratulations on taking my money and ruining my NYE. Don't bother coming here.

food was good but the wait time was bad. waited 40mins for chicken schnitzel, kids pasta, salad and garlic bread. people who came after us got their food in 15 mins. :(

We arrived at the restaurant and sat down after ordering some food. One of the orders were mixed up, which wasn't ideal however we thought could be solved quickly. We were then approached by an extremely hostile manager asking us "what our problem is" instead of politely asking how he could help. One of our group explained that we were mid-way through eating our dinner and one of us hadn't received their food yet after already paying for it and it being a mistake on their end. He was then told to leave after we had paid and booked this area for a team meal, consistently being aggressive instead of trying to resolve the small issue calmly. He then tried to blame is facial features for his aggressive nature in saying "it's all he has to work with." Ultimately it was clear he had no intention of trying to resolve anything and ended in him asking our whole team to leave mid-meal after paying a lot of money to eat here. Very unprofessional and would not recommend to anyone
