Other published opinions
Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide 2008 Score: 14/20 "Since the military relinquished this site two years ago, the crack team behind The Tea Room QVB has transformed it, marrying the cliff's-edge view with fine dining, either in the sumptuously chandeliered nineteenthcentury sandstone barracks or on the broad deck overlooking the sparkling harbour"
Sydney Eats 2008 "Here's to another boffo harbour view from this sensitively readapted 1873 building in the Georges Head bushland"
Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide 2007 Score: 14/20 "Too many restaurants treat cuppa fans disrespectfully, serving English breakfast (hint, hint) tea at the end of the day. The Tearoom lives up to its name with 29 teas. The restored 1873 sandstone building seeps genteel charm thanks to Florence Broadhurst wallpaper, Venetian chandeliers, damask- cloth'd, padded tables and comfy chairs."
Sydney Morning Herald Simon Thomsen, 20-6-2006 "Historic location with an awesome view, charming food and a fine tea list."
Sydney Morning Herald By Jacqui Taffel, 3-1-2006 "To the right are Watsons Bay, Nielsen Park, Shark Island and the city skyline with Centrepoint poking out above Bradleys Head. Look hard enough and there, behind Rose Bay, is a distant strip of the Tasman. Oo-er. For the past 130 years or so, only military types could enjoy this prime slab of Chowder Bay real estate. In 1873, the handsome sandstone Gunners' Barracks was built as part of the harbour fortifications. In 1955, it became an officers' mess, then in 2001 was officially handed back to the public. Now it has morphed into The Tearoom Gunners' Barracks, a new outpost of The Tearoom in the Queen Victoria Building."
