"Continental Delicatessen promises to be one of the most fun restaurants in Sydney, with stiff drinks, cold cuts and canned goods – but not the kind of non-perishable food items you might expect. Their fresh produce includes tinned Mediterranean-inspired delicacies such as anchovies from the Bay of Biscay and French sardines to create a deli and bistro that is straight out of a European laneway. Plus you can even find their famed cocktails in tins: the Mar-tinny and Can-hatten are batched and canned onsite and offer a new way to enjoy a cocktail."
"Led by Elvis Abrahanowicz and Sarah Doyle (co-owners of Porteno and Bodega), the team here has delved into the lost art of preserving and are putting everything in tins.

Fans of vintage aesthetics are going to flip over the Continental branded tins."
"The Henson is a chilled little neighbourhood spot, perfect for an evening meal or afternoon lunch with the family. Boasting a gorgeous open-air back garden and a chic courtyard for sunnier days, as well as a simple and safe play area, both adults and children will be seduced by The Henson. A nod to its locale (Marrickville), the venue is very on-trend and a bit grungy, but adults will be able to relax and let the wee ones play about in its safe and enclosed dining and play area."
"A bit further out in Sydney’s inner west, this joint shouldn’t be missed when you are in the area. The Henson is a quiet pub with a local feel serving great craft beer from nearby breweries, a seasonal wine menu and delicious pub grub. The Henson created their menu using quality ingredients and reputable sources, using free range, organic, hormone and chemical free meat & poultry & sustainable seafood."
"The Henson is an incredible, community-minded restaurant in Marrickville; one of the trendiest and art-centered neighborhoods in Sydney. This restaurant is fun for kids, just as much as it is for adults. One one hand, children can enjoy themselves in the ball pit at the back, or in the courtyard play area decorated with toys to play with."
"Marrickville’s pet and kid friendly brewery The Grifter Brewing Co is equal parts laid-back and cool. The edgy warehouse screams Inner West brewery, accompanied by a full suite of quirky brews like watermelon pilsner and coffee cream ale. For a cheeky drink and some grade-A bar snacks like crackling and jerky, a visit to the bar is a must."
"An established Northern Beaches brewery with outposts scattered around the Northern Beaches. At the brewery in Brookvale, the Truck Bar (literally fashioned from a 1960 Dodge pickup truck) is the place to be, with Thursdays being game night. Giant Jenga and shuffleboard anyone?"
"Young Henry’s are the trendsetters in the Inner West brewery scene. They have a well-earned reputation for their top-notch brews and community vibe. The Tasting Bar is open seven days a week and on the weekend, you can expect a crowd basking in the beer, beats and bites."
