Food Scene

This place started in Surry Hills and has expanded to deliver classic French Boulangerie style bread and baked goods to its addicted customers (including me!). Absolutely delicious and perfect for a quick breakfast and coffee run.

Super cool bar and burgers, started by a former Tetsuya chef. This place is a former drug rehab centre converted into the most delicious and fun bar, no other place like it.

Opened by two of the greatest restaurateurs Sydney has seen in recent times, Elvis Abrahanowicz and Joe Valore of Porteño, Gardel’s Bar and Bodega (which they co-own with Ben Milgate), and LP’s Quality Meats (which they co-own with Luke Powell), this is more than just a restaurant. At Continental in Newtown a downstairs deli opens at 11am and becomes a casual bar/restaurant as the later hours creep in, while upstairs there's a bistro for those fancier nights out.

Drinks & Nightlife

From TimeOut Sydney: This is the pub against which all others shall be judged The beautiful thing about this old boozer is that it’s a pub designed to facilitate a good time on your terms. Want to sit up at the bar with a huge plate of fish and chips and watch back-to-back AFL games? This is the best place for it. Prefer to sink your tip money in pinball machines while you annihilate jugs of Stone and Wood Pacific Ale and Young Henrys Newtowner? Right this way. They’ve even got two separate outdoor areas so that smokers and diners can both enjoy the sunshine, and they let you bring your dog (on a lead) or kid (no lead required, probably).

Once you've graduated from smashing jugs of beer at your local it's time to crank up the drinks quality substantially and order the best cocktails in Newtown at this low lit bar with a New Orleans voodoo vibe. Earl's Juke Joint is all class. It's built to outlast all the Saturday nights Newtown can throw at it, the drinks list is spectacular and the vibe stays at a potent simmer.

If you imagine the ideal neighbourhood bar, everything that comes to mind you’ll find at the Gretz in Enmore. So popular was the restaurant Hartsyard further up the street that Gregory Llewellyn and Naomi Hart decided to add a bar to their Inner West venture. They took an underwhelming venue and gave it a gently nautical, timber-heavy makeover, with big rump-cupping bar stools adequately padded for long nights of big beers and short cocktails.

Generally speaking, you used to go to gigs for great tunes and shitty drinks, and you went to a bar for great drinks and a Spotify playlist for atmosphere. But now Leadbelly has come along and broken all the rules by being a live music venue with really excellent cocktails in the same space that once housed the Vanguard.
