Start your night at The Cut Bar & Grill for premium steaks, then step upstairs to Tailor Room for bespoke cocktails. Both venues sit within The Collective precinct, where heritage sandstone meets contemporary dining in The Rocks.
The Collective brings together Sydney’s finest dining experiences under one heritage-listed roof. Begin with dinner at The Cut Bar & Grill, then ascend to Tailor Room for cocktails. This seamless transition between venues creates the ideal evening flow.
Located in The Rocks, The Collective combines historic architecture with modern hospitality. The precinct is just minutes from Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, placing your dining experience at the heart of Sydney’s most iconic district.
The Cut Bar & Grill occupies an intimate basement space where exposed beams and moody lighting create the perfect dinner atmosphere. Open woodfire cooking defines the menu, with premium Australian beef taking centre stage.
The signature slow-roasted prime rib showcases the kitchen’s expertise. This hero dish requires patience but rewards diners with exceptional tenderness and complex flavours that justify its reputation.
Beyond the prime rib, The Cut sources responsibly raised beef from Australia’s leading producers. Each cut receives careful preparation over open flames, creating the distinctive char and smoky depth that elevate the steakhouse experience.
After dinner, pop into Tailor Room, The Collective’s intimate 20-seat cocktail bar. This exclusive space takes inspiration from fabrics and textiles, with each cocktail telling a story through flavour and presentation.
The bartenders craft drinks based on your preferences, whether you favour spirit-forward classics or lighter, refreshing options. This personalised approach ensures every cocktail suits your taste and complements your evening.
Tailor Room operates on a walk-in basis, adding spontaneity to your night. The intimate setting encourages conversation while skilled bartenders work their craft just metres away.
The Collective’s design allows for a natural progression between venues. Start with steaks in the atmospheric basement, then move to cocktails at ground level. This journey through the precinct creates varied experiences within one location.
The heritage building adds authenticity to both venues. Original sandstone walls and preserved architectural details provide character that modern venues cannot replicate. These elements enhance the dining experience without overwhelming it.
Book dinner at The Cut Bar & Grill in advance, especially for Friday and Saturday evenings. Allow two hours for your meal to enjoy the full steakhouse experience without feeling rushed.
After dinner, head directly to Tailor Room. The walk-in policy means you might wait during peak times, but the intimate space and exceptional cocktails reward patience. Consider arriving between 8:30pm and 9:30pm for the best chance of immediate seating.
The combination of The Cut Bar & Grill and Tailor Room delivers Sydney’s ideal evening format. Premium steaks provide substantial satisfaction, while craft cocktails offer the perfect conclusion.
Both venues maintain The Collective’s commitment to quality without pretension. Service remains warm and professional throughout your journey, from your first greeting at The Cut to your final cocktail at Tailor Room.
