The Goodsline
2021 | CAFÉ | BAR | PYRMONT
Harking back to the Golden Age of train travel, The Goodsline fast-tracks the opulence of first-class carriages. The robust concrete and bluestone setting befit its location near an industrial railway that once connected Sydney’s Inner West to the docks.
Fluted glass gently partitions intimate zones, whilst walnut ceiling panels instantly cosy the soaring space, crowning its three offerings: a central café/bar counter framed by a restaurant and a café with booth-style banquettes reminiscent of traditional train seating. The counter’s canopy supported by elegant arched rods adds heightened nostalgia – from its brass mesh base referencing luggage rails to the menu it cradles, reminiscent of traditional departure schedule boards.
