   Considering the cost on its own to ascend the pylon and see the museum ($30+ per adult), $110pp (inc. booking fee) is good value for this experience. The 200+ stairs are easy, wide staircases with railings and as you stop along the way with a guide to learn about the bridge and stop for an aperitif, watch a short film and stop at the gift shop and bathrooms, it breaks the ascent up so you don’t really notice it. Unless you struggle with one flight of stairs normally, these stairs should not be an issue. I was dreading it and pictured myself arriving dripping in sweat and panting, but I wasn’t. We were blessed with a cracking bright, blue afternoon but even an overcast day would be spectacular up there. It was extremely windy, so tie hair back and forget about a hat or anything that a gust of wind could take off your head. The service of drinks and food was more generous than the booking suggested which was a lovely surprise. You spend about an hour out on the pylon open area soaking in the 360 degree views and the drinks and canapes are brought to you. As there were only 10 guests, there was no worry of being left out. Wait staff ensured everyone got the same access to food and drink no matter where they chose to be. Music played from a speaker and was fun and upbeat classic songs that people started singing and moving to. All staff from Bridgeclimb and Luke’s Table were attentive, friendly and efficient. As for the food itself, it was delicious. Mostly little, crisp, tartlet cases filled with yummy things. The wagyu beef and cherry tartare was our favourite, followed by the warm pea and goats cheese and the creamy strawberry vinaigrette oyster. The lobster prawn toast was also moreish. I imagine the dinner offering would be amazing, especially with sunset, but at 4 times the price, I think it makes the Tour and Tasting option excellent value. Think of it as a tasty tester to the dinner if you’re considering something special to celebrate and splurge on.

   What a fantastic experience being able to dine high above the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge with all round views of the city, harbour surrounding suburbs. The food was beautifully prepared and presented, the paired wines complemented each course perfectly adding another layer of flavour to each dish. All staff were polite and professional and provided great background information that helped to lift the experience.

   Great little experience that elevates the pylon museum to the next level. Great value and you get plenty time up top to take in the views with a glass of something nice. The staff are super accommodating and friendly and we had a great time. Would recommend.

   What a night! Everything was so well orchestrated, from the drinks and tour at the beginning to being met by Luke Mangan at the top of the stairs. Then we were served canapes and drinks on the top of the Pylon taking in the amazing 360 degree views of the harbour, bridge, city and Opera House from such a unique position. The food and service was impeccable and we enjoyed the stories we were told too about the effort that went into creating the experience. All in all, I strongly recommend this.

    We found it to be a really good experience. The service was good and the location was excellent. The only disappointment was we did not taste the ‘That’s Amore Cheese’‘ Smoked Mozzarella as described on the menu provided, no explanation was provided.
