Australia's Iconic Thai
"Descending the well-worn sandstone steps at this Rocks institution is to trace not only the history of Sydney but also its love affair with Thai food."

For more than 150 years seafarers from across the globe sought shelter in Sydney's heritage Sailors Home in The Rocks, and today it remains a destination for would be adventurers.
Established in the early '90s by one of Australia's foremost chefs, local and international regulars as well as first time visitors make their way to Sailors to enjoy benchmark Thai.
Our reputation is for bold but carefully balanced flavours, inspired renditions of classic dishes and 'hero' produce in a wonderfully unique setting.
Drop by the canteen upstairs, with one of Sydney's first open kitchens and communal tables, retreat to the sandstone surrounds and soaring ceilings of the downstairs dining room or take a table on the decks with sparkling views of Circular Quay.

canteen
In Thailand, food is always best enjoyed with friends and family using shared plates combined carefully to achieve the perfect balance of salty, sour, sweet and spicy elements - even dessert!
A visit to our canteen on George Street makes for an easy lunch or dinner. It’s informal, fast, friendly and fun. There are no reservations so just come on in!
There’s a long, gleaming communal table beside a buzzing open kitchen. Come early or late to snare a seat on the sunny balcony and enjoy views of Circular Quay.
Our canteen also offers a takeaway menu that can be ordered online and with our partner Foodora we are now able to offer delivery within the local area.

“I love to eat, but more than that, I love variety in what I eat, and I love the integrity of produce that has been grown or raised by someone who cares. Those same philosophies apply to my thoughts on drinking, so sure, I have my favourites, but I love to try something new, something different, something grown by someone whose patch of dirt has something unique to say, but also, something that complements the food of the day. ”
