Sydney dining

Dining alfresco by the beach or the harbour is one of Sydney’s great delights at any time of the year

Sydney is where accomplished chefs, culinary innovation, stunning views and delicious fresh cuisine meet. Let your tastebuds lead you on a gourmet tour of discovery across one of the world's favourite food capitals.

With its temperate climate and stunning landscape, Sydney 's water views and alfresco dining are vital ingredients when eating out. Outdoor dining spots are scattered throughout the city, try Woolloomooloo Wharf, Cockle Bay, The Rocks, King Street Wharf, Bondi and Balmoral Beach.

When the sun goes down, make sure you head for any one of the city's vibrant watering holes where the cocktail lists are long, the dance floors hot and the crowds friendly and up-for-it.
