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!
Nordic interiors and a tasty cocktails list. Come here with friends for a relaxed after-work drink and try the 'Gloss' spritzer – you'll be swayed by the combination of strawberry, watermelon riesling and rosewater. It's also home to a mechanical cocktail shaker that is one of only a few in the world!
