Beautifully custom built street market street. 5 or 6 little take away shops along with plenty of tables to eat from. It is a cashless street so ensure you have your credit cards. This whole street is BYO so take a few beers or a bottle of wine, and remember some cups or buy them on arrival from the entrance market.

MY FAVE BURGER IN SYDNEY!
Honestly... its unbelievable. Can be hard to find. If you go to Mary street in Newtown, look for an old dark doorway where a bouncer is standing, and in you go. Awesome bar with rock music playing. Sell only natural wines and beers. Its delish!
