Love the emo nights at this venue, but to be honest, I've had some bad experiences with the bartenders not being very nice. It's really puts a damper on your night when you feel like someone hates you for having to re say your drink order because they misheard you due to it being very loud, and me not having the loudest voice. Getting angry at me isn't the answer.

What they did for the Knotfest after party was great.
Lots of like minded people dancing and having fun.
Would be good to have some quieter places to sit and chat but not at the detriment of the vibes.

Amazing location! Fabulous bar staff and management! Stunning space??'-

I organise and run events to help people make friends in Sydney and the venue was perfect! The Burdekin isn't just an iconic venue, but well run, beautiful space, with amazing people running the show!

We will definitely be coming back here, thank you for making the event run so smoothly??'-

Great location with rooftop view over city skyline and Hyde Park. Lift to rooftop appreciated.. $10 for house bubbles great deal. $25 Beer and a G&T

Listen up Music had their grand final there tonight!! What a fantastic venue!! The night was absolutely unbelievable! But aside from the event the staff and venue were fantastic!! Mike on the bar was an absolute gem!! The door staff were amazing! I also had the BEST schnitzel i have EVER had!! And everyone agreed!!! $15 on a Thursday!!! 4-6 happy hour on house wine and beer! A venue with character and charm! Absolutely perfect!! ??'?

Best Margaritas in town!! Great rooftop bar, has heating, Naomi makes the best cocktails

Such a great crowd and atmosphere. Multiple levels so easy to get a drink and not too crowded. Amazing bands playing here, music was great all night. Highly recommend!

Great place to party well run and has many events to take part in. The bar service was fast and efficient and many options available wether its a cocktail or standard drinks not a problem. Security was friendly and present all night. The smoking area was entertaining to say the least had a lot of fun and will go again .placed right in town plenty of option for a late night snack on the way home .

They have the worst wine list I've ever, the worst wine I've ever tasted. The sav blanc was so bad, you could not drink it. Worse than good old passion pop. We thought the wine was off, bar staff would not change the drink for something else.

Level 3 is a good area to hold a function. Not a great choice of alcohol, though.

Service was lovely very welcoming, however the place needs a renovation. It's dead with empty spaces and floors everywhere. The food is horrible, chips were cold the pizza with sausages had no sausages, it was literally not even half a sausage and was cut up fine all over. It was literally bread and cheese that was cold and stale. Took ages for food to come out aswell considering it was dead. Save your money if you're thinking of eating here. Maccas is better.

Great venue with something for everyone. Also very caring staff that care about the well-being of patrons and keeping everyone safe. Blessing to Sydney :)

The place is improving, great place to take your friends out for a dance. A lot of more international acts coming through, I wished they would open the other floors up more because it's great to vibe if you need to take a step back.

Wonderful drag brunch on a Sunday. We went for my birthday, and it was really an awesome day. The bottomless brunch package which includes a food and drinks is a really great deal, and the drag performances were brilliant. Really great staff - all in all well worth a visit. If you get a chance to go for Drag Brunch, definitely go, but also is just a great place for rooftop cocktails whenever. Recommend.

Had a corporate held in here. Definitely a cool place, LGBTQ friendly. Great atmosphere on the rooftop.
Only struggle was to get into the toilet, had to go all the way down to the ground level just to get to the toilet (they got lift tho).

Love coming here on Wednesday nights for the musical bingo. Callan & Carter are a great duo and the songs they play are always a vibe! So easy to win a bar tab if you know the songs! Definitely recommend ??'?

Awesome venue, great service, great food!
Looking forward to my next night out at the Burdekin!

Went to Egirl Nexus One on the 12.11.2022 was a great vibe and there are a couple of floors with other loud music and events going on and we couldn't hear their music at all- very sound dampening.

Rooms could be bigger but I think that's up to the event that hired them to pick the room so that's not the Burdekin's fault. Staff were lovely.

Lots of stairs! Took the wrong turn and ended up down the back passage oops! Cute little place and the staff tolerated me and my attitude so kudos to them. Not much on the menu, particularly for those not wanting cheese or pig but tasty vegan pizza. Roof top is nice but only in dry weather. Toilets are about midway in the myriad of stairs. There is an elevator for those wishing to cheat but takes an eternity. I think there's a bar on every level.

Great venue!

3 floors of fun! Loved that they had emo & metal on one floor & dance music on another. Fabulous atmosphere. I shall be back!!

Love this place, feels like home coming here. The bartender and security guys are really lovely and always so welcoming. I would love that the toilets were kept a bit mote clean a little as they are always really dirty at the end of the night, but not that stops me to have a great night here.

Awesome rooftop bar with good drinks. The staff was very friendly. Cool decorations. The pizza with 'nduja sausage from Calabria was so tasty. They do a Sunday brunch that looks like a lot of fun.

The Burdekin... Let me say, the BESTakin!

Absolutely phenomenal night. Well looked after. All of this dedicated to the bartender named Josh! Absolute legend, kept us warm when the night was darkest.

Can't wait for the next time I arrive!

5 stars. I went to the spritz Sunday brunch. Great venue and the staff went hard out to make it an fantastic event. Exceeded my expectation. Thanks guys for a perfect Sunday

I had my 21st on the rooftop here a couple months ago, the managers and all the staff were amazing and made sure all my questions were answered and the night was a success. Beautiful chill atmosphere on the rooftop perfect for events or small get-togethers.

The rooftop bar is now a must go to this once iconic (90s early 2000) establishment!!

Great space. The multiple levels.means there were 3 totally different nights going on in the one place! The drinks are good, the staff are nice and they all try hard to give people an awesome night.
Would recommend for dance and fun but not a quiet drink with friends.

Lots of variety in events hosted here! The BEST place for an alternative night out, plus they support local talent! Reasonable drink prices and easy to get to and from. All round great place

Since renovation, the venue is more aesthetically pleasing. The rooftop is nice, with a bar.
Bathroom is a bit of a trek and involves lots of stairs.
Lift is not very reliable.
Can order and pay at your table.
