- Alex TorranceFebruary 13, 2014Nice little museum will give good overview of complex history of this complex city. Currently good (if heartbreaking) exhibition on trams.
L bombOctober 8, 2011Taking the highlights tour is a good way to get an overview of the small but interesting museum. I think this is also a good intro to Sydney when you 1st arrived.
Oliver MagroNovember 8, 2014History of the early colonists and the indigenous people interesting. Not much to see here, but it's worth visiting as one of a number if city museums.
- Oliver MagroFebruary 7, 2015If you're visiting the Towers Lego exhibition make sure you sit down and watch the documentary with the guy who built them.

Kids holiday workshop - make collages and contribute to a collaborative work based on the Martin Sharp exhibition. Lots of fun - 10, 11 & 12 each day.
LarissaJune 7, 2012Cafe/Museum food is average and not worth the price. Asked for medium and got rare lamb. Friendly and efficient staff.
- Tony Abbott arriving any minute. Kelly Odwyer here feels like Qanda all over again!
Adam BerminghamOctober 14, 2011Really not great at all. Must skip. Not worth it even if it were free.
