Helm Bar & Bistro

Helm Bar & Bistro, now known as Helm Cockle Bay, is a nautical-themed rooftop bar and bistro occupying a prime waterfront position at Cockle Bay Wharf in Sydney's vibrant Darling Harbour precinct. The multi-level venue features both a lively Lower Deck beer garden and an Upper Deck rooftop terrace, both offering stunning views over the glistening waters of Cockle Bay and the surrounding harbourside entertainment district. Guests can enjoy a broad menu spanning fresh seafood, burgers, Aussie classics, pasta, pizza, and tacos, alongside a well-stocked selection of tap beers, wines, and handcrafted cocktails. Following a recent refurbishment, Helm Cockle Bay now presents two distinct event spaces, The Terrace and The Garden, styled with Mediterranean-inspired design and together catering to groups of up to 600 guests. It is one of Sydney's most recognisable and beloved harbourside rooftop destinations.
