About Glebe
Originally part of the Glebe Estate granted to the Anglican Church in the 1800s, Glebe can lay claim to the title of Sydney's most vibrant and "alternative" community.
Adjacent to two universities, Glebe is now home to thousands of academics and students, from around the globe. Along Glebe Point Road, there are tiny eateries, cheap eats galore, bookshops, small galleries and old-style pubs such as The Nag's Head. At the end of Glebe Point Road is Jubilee Park, perfect for harbourside picnics and a walk along the relaxing Glebe Foreshore Walk. Don't miss great food, bargains and retro fashion at Saturday's Glebe Markets.
