CRU Bar & Cellar

10 out of 10- highly recommend this James street icon !

It was a great atmosphere service wasn’t as attentive but overall a great experience thank you

Lovely restaurant. Good menu, attentive staff. Really enjoyed the experience

Lovely food, great service. We had a wonderful night out.

CRU bar was amazing for drinks and snacks however their mains were quite disappointing. Portion sizes were quite small. Market fish of the day was rubbery and $46 for a single fillet of fish. Amazing and attentive service from those who looked after us.

Cru always delivers. There are the new kids on the block and Cru has stepped up to meet the challenge.

Checked in on time and everything was great. Our server (Claire) was wonderful.

The food and service was exceptional !

The cru bar is amazing great vibes and amazing food and incredible cocktales I’ve been here a few times and I love it and the service is great very friendly!!! If you want amazing food and drinks highly recommended 👌😄

It was lovely but quite over priced

Incredibly overpriced and lack of transparency on wine prices, particularly if you elect to get a ‘full glass’ which does not have the price listed on the menu. There was no explanation that the price listed on the menu is a ‘Half Glass’ and a full glass will be double the price. I found this incredibly deceptive, was shocked once we got the bill and was very unhappy overall at the experience.

Nick went above and beyond with his service last night! Will definitely be back!

Food not as good as usual - attention of staff had to be sought - heater turned off and we had to ask for curtain to be closed to stop menus blowing away - not our usual great experience.

Great food, great drinks, great service. Perfect for small groups

Cru has always been a favourite. The food and wine menu has always been superb. The present staff are exceptional.

Very good excellent wait staff.

He is is always amazing as is their wine and o tail selection. Staff are super friendly helpful and fun!

Very poor food menu for drinks & snacks
uninteresting menu & very over priced for food received .
Been a regular to Cru over many years unfortunately after recent experience not any more !
Not the go to place anymore for drinks & nibbles .

The food and wine were delicious and the waitress was friendly, attentive and helpful. We finished off our meal sharing the trio of small treats - a perfect variety of bite size sweetness to accompany our coffees.

Great experience

We didn't stay as the menu didn't have anything that suited us. There was a lot of seafood and heavier dishes that we didn't think was appropriate for lunch.
I've been before and enjoyed it, the menu was a disappointment this time.

The food was delicious and Cru Bar has an outstanding selection of wines.

Wonderful ambiance - steak disappointing mostly fat

Wonderful location, food service and wine list. Knowledgeable and experienced staff. One of the best lunches of recent times.

Sav and the team have crafted an extraordinary and delicious tasting experience. I had a very real internal battle to not lick the plates. Floor staff were friendly and attentive. Decor was ambient, but would be lifted with a refresh... and a bigger chandelier over the iced champagne ;) x

Good Place

We love Cru. We had a fantastic dining experience yet again and will always go back for more. The best wine list in Queensland, and possibly even Australia. Food is always exceptional and is delicious, innovative and a new surprise each time we go. Highly recommend.

Beauty how the service is all connected
The front service is fully aware and understanding of what is happening back stage which makes it an amazing experience and help order the best

Service and food was fantastic!!

Always fabulous!

A "mocktail" that was just a fizzy soft drink for $13, and a fried square of chicken with bits of cartilage , left a lot to be desired.

I wouldn't go for the food (if you're hungry, save it for somewhere else) but aside from that, there is a nice vibe there.

Food and drinks were both superb, with outstanding service. And we were given a special treat when we mentioned we were celebrating our anniversary! We will be back and can recommend Cru Bar for that special occasion

Wait staff and manager were absolutely brilliant when we had some unruly unwelcome patrons bothering us.

Starters were amazing (ricotta with honey and the amazing beef tartare with chilli). Main courses were a bit disappointing (pork cotoletta and the butchers steak). Overall a nice place though with a great wine choice.

Outstanding wine list as well as beers and cocktails etc. The food was excellent, I had the prawn, rigatoni and walnut main, with a side of leaf salad, and enjoyed it very much.

Food choices were excellent and the meal didn't disappoint. Drink selections to please anyone.

Great location, food, atmosphere and extensive beverage list :)

Great food with the service to match- great work guys

Date night was perfect! Ambiance, service and overall experience was wonderful. I’m very sensitive to noise so it was perfect, romantic and modern. Would go again and again.

A fantastic new menu and the wait staff are efficient and courteous.
