About The Alcott

The Alcott trades noisy club clatter for low-lit, multi-level warmth in Lane Cove. Styled by Pony Design, the interior tucks away cozy lounges, relaxed dining pockets, and an airy terrace—letting conversation carry naturally without having to raise your voice. Regulars lean into wood-fired pizzas, lamb ribs, and crisp arancini, backed by happy hour pours or easy QR ordering right from the table. Upstairs, dedicated Sorrento and Sirocco event suites come fully self-contained with their own private bar and facilities, while the ground floor winds down over espresso soufflés and a smooth pour of tap beer.

  • Self-Contained Event Suites: Upstairs Sorrento and Sirocco suites feature dedicated private bars and dedicated amenities for milestones.
  • Boutique Multi-Level Layout: Interiors by Pony Design balance comfortable lounge seating, dining nooks, and a terrace.
  • Flexible Ordering Options: Skip lines with instant table-side digital ordering or head up to the counter bar.

Why locals choose The Alcott for milestone events, relaxed dining, and casual drinks.

  • Dedicated Self-Contained Function Suites

  • Flexible Bar and QR Code Ordering

    Tableside digital ordering allows guests heading to local shows or gathering after work to order at their own pace without queuing at the counter.

    The options of ordering at the bar or directly from the table via QR code was nice also.
