Dark timber, silver metalwork and floor to ceiling glass doors maximise Cafe Sydney's breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour. Interior design by Hong Kong based John Morford complements the heritage of Customs House with Australia's trading ports and wine regions incorporated graphically into the design of the restaurant.

Recycled black butt timber flooring has been sourced from other demolished historical buildings in Sydney and artist Angus McDonald's specially commissioned paintings of the Harbour Bridge adorn the main restaurant.
