Rough, off-beat and beautiful, Darlinghurst encapsulates urban life in Sydney. This whole-in-the-wall neighbourhood used to house Sydney's most infamous crime gang, the Razors. Today it offers some of the city's best small bars and Italian restaurants. If you're lucky, you can (probably) still grab a piccolo with Australia's version of Tony Soprano.
Get in early to grab a homemade cinnamon bun with a batch brew.
Fair prices, a back garden and BYO.
It's easy to lose track of time in here, so make sure you allow plenty of time to peruse the shelves!
Want something that your nutritionist doesn't approve of? Mr. Crackles is the place. With a background in fine dining, the two chefs have cheap eats and pork belly rolls down pat. Enjoy the 'twice the meat, half the salad' goodness while people watching on Oxford Street.
