Restaurant Information Package
Venue Information At GPO Sydney we felt that the center of the city lacked a pure Spanish restaurant and tapas bar that stayed true to Spanish cuisine, wine and culture. To this end we have created Postales Restaurante and Tapas Bar to offer traditional Spanish food in a relaxed setting. The cuisine focuses on amazing seafood, meat and vegetarian dishes that have been Spanish favourites forever. Escape from the city rush and enter a Spanish hideaway where the surroundings are warm and welcoming with rich red infused walls and soft Spanish melodies surrounding you. Faithful to the most authentic flavours of Spain and serving only the finest recipes, our Head Chef has created a menu suitable for corporate entertaining and ideal for large group bookings. We invite you to come and experience Postales De Espana (postcards of Spain) and feel the excitement of Spain!
