Jett Rink called out 'Duck Confit! ' as Cindy Lou chucked his open McLaren convertible round the corner into James Street headed for the Cru Bar for lunch and his bottle of Old Crow splashed down his open necked and long sleaved white silk shirt. She pulled up to a sudden stop at the T intersection near David Jones 's boutique store on the left. 'Wild thing, I think I love you, ' Jett called out, and skinny, raven haired Cindy Lou sang back, 'But I wanna know for sure! ' Her dark eyes smiled at him. Jett replied: 'Street parking only, Cindy Lou, only troggs park underground. ' The lights changed and a British racing green Rolls Royce SUV shot past them and grabbed the last car park near th...
Last month walking around James street I decided to stop at this place for a drink with my friends.<br/ <br/ When checking their cocktail menu I was impressed by they having 4 different options of espresso martini and decides to try a couple of them.<br/ <br/ The one with chilli syrup was amazing and although not your classic espresso martini it is an well balanced and interesting cocktail with a nice heat to it. Would rate it a 5 out of 5.<br/ <br/ The classic espresso martini was also well made with a balance between bitterness, sweetness and alcohol. Would rate it a 4.5 out of 5.<br/ <br/ Overall I was impressed by my drinks and my friends were also happy with their choices.
Came here on a Wednesday afternoon for a leisurely cocktail. I had the tiger blood Martini. It was just the right blend of sweetness with a good chilli kick. I sampled the chips beautifully crunchy and the fennel salt was a nice addition. Cru has a fantastic wine list and so I am keen to return to sample more of their menu.
An established restaurant and bar especially a bar. We lunched here recently sat a beautiful table right on the corner of James street and the laneway. The oysters were fine and the spaghettini and king prawns very light and well treated. Perhaps a smudge over cooked in the prawns but ok . Good wine list and nice buzz.

This is a great place to catch up with your friends after a day at work. Just order from the extensive drinks menu and get some share plates. They get busy (and the place gets a bit loud) but it's never difficult to get a waiter's attention and the service is friendly.
This quality bar bistro is a consistent, sheer-curtained crowd pleaser. Service is old-school class the wine list is a 53 page light read. Outside tables can be sticky but are the perfect spot for watching the James Street cultural procession. Cheers!
Staff are fun, friendly and attentive. Nice ambience. Food is delicious. Have come here with a group multiple times and the staff are always hospitable and welcoming. Incredible selection of wine. There is usually somewhere to park close enough by.
Very nice atmosphere the staff were really nice and accomodating. Wines were sold at a very reasonable price. Food were great as well. Will definitely come back again

Very good restaurant. Great good and service. Catered for my coeliac friend too. My only really gripe was that the oysters we were served weren't that fresh.
