Crown Resorts to house new Golden Century restaurant and Icebergs Harbour Bar

Edited by Travel Weekly

Crown Resorts has announced Sydney hospitality institutions Golden Century and Icebergs Dining Room and Bar will open new venues at Crown Sydney for the summer of 2024-2025.

The venues will join a list of world-class and award-winning home-grown and international restaurants – a’Mare, Woodcut, Nobu, and Oncore by Clare Smyth – and will mark a new era of dining, where tourists and locals alike can enjoy Crown as a one-stop destination for Sydney’s best culinary experiences.

“Crown Sydney is already a beacon of hospitality in this beloved city, so it feels natural to add to our repertoire two renowned offerings from Sydney itself,” Crown Sydney CEO Stanford Le said.

“We are thrilled to become the new home of the iconic Golden Century, offering our guests an experience that is at once nostalgic and exciting, and to partner with Icebergs for a summer residency of their bar experience, bringing their Bondi expertise to the harbourside.”

“Since 2016, Crown Sydney has invested heavily in activating the Barangaroo precinct. By adding two more hospitality institutions to our resort, we are proud to be enhancing the night-time economy offerings, well-timed with the opening of direct and fast metro services to this fabulous waterfront” added Le.

In early 2025, Golden Century will move into level 3, continuing their 30 year legacy and reprising the original concept which has been unavailable to diners since their Sussex St location closed during Covid in 2021. The venue will pay homage to the original with a menu brimming with Golden Century’s signature dishes including XO pippies, live lobster cooked two ways, and abalone steamboat, as well as other signature classics like peking duck, salt and pepper squid, and a yum cha lunch offering.

“We feel that we have a great synergy with Crown’s approach to hospitality – focusing on quality and the guest experience, making them feel welcome and at home,” Golden Century co-owner Billy Wong said.

“Golden Century is where it all began and we are excited to once again welcome in our loyal customers, serving our beloved Cantonese classics in a picture-perfect location that overlooks Sydney harbour and beyond.”

Icebergs Harbour Bar will open in December, welcoming guests from the morning through to late night drinks, bringing an elevated and Euro-Australian version of Bondi’s bar offering to Barangaroo by taking over the TWR lobby bar space and outdoor terrace. Diners can expect Icebergs Bar favourites such as the Iceburger, fried school prawns with aioli and lime, and signature cocktails like the No. 147 with Ketel One vodka, coconut, passionfruit, pineapple, lemon and aromatic bitters.

Restaurateur Maurice Terzini, co-owner of Icebergs Dining Room and Bar said: “I have always had a love affair with great hotel bars; they’re transient and fun and you never know who you’re going to meet! This evolution of the Iceberg’s Bar will bring classic drinks and our signature bar food offering to Crown Sydney, matching the already decadent and luxurious guest experience.”

Icebergs Harbour Bar will be open seven days a week and will be available for walk-ins. Reservations for Golden Century will open to the public in December.
