The Birdcage Restaurant and Bar drew inspiration from its leafy surroundings, in particular the beautiful Fig Tree that dominates the Kingsway Restaurant Precinct. This glorious tree plays host to many species of colourful birds and it is this vibrancy that embodies the soul of all we do and are at The Birdcage. Life is always improved with a little fun and flamboyance. So, with this in mind we want your time dining with us to be both enjoyable but more so, memorable.

This rose is a climbing rose and yellow in colour; a fitting representation of the Sunrise and Sunset that can be enjoyed from every aspect on the Lady Banks Rooftop. Be delighted with our modern interpretation of everything the Lady Banks Rose represents – uniqueness, effortlessness and vibrancy. Please enjoy Lady Banks Rooftop – an experience like no other

Seemed to be new young staff, delightful/refreshing experience. The only thing that would have been appreciated, would be chilled water. In saying that we probably would have outstayed our welcome.
