Newtown is full of places to eat and drink, some better than others - heres a little guide to help the non-locals out x - also i've made a guide for places to grab a drink around the inner west :)
Elif Durur: Chocolate eclairs are supposed the one of the best in sydney and they are great, but don't pass up on some of the other special treats - i especially like the berry tarts :)
Elif Durur: Great breakfasts, and good value for money. Its a little quirky and hidden away but good to get of the main strip in king street. Definitely worth checking out
Elif Durur: One of the more 'fine dining' style restaurants in Newtown, a bit more intimate and classy. Take advantage of their degustation or three course offers. The spatchcock was delicious!
Caitlin Welsh: Chicken Guerrero mini-burrito only $6 (add a dollar for guacamole, so worth it) and so delicious! Also plenty filling - I can't finish the regular size! FYI - quesadillas tasty but tiny.
Nick Findlay: one of the last decent pubs in Newtown - bistro is good, although it has gone down hill a bit in the last year or so. beers still cheap, and free popcorn always goes down a treat
