Newtown and Glebe
Vibe: Eclectic, unpretentious, gay-friendly
What’s not to love in Newtown
- Shopping to suit all fashion tastes—from gothic to glamour along King Street and Enmore Road.
- Theatresports, playback theatre and the famous Short and Sweet one-act series at Newtown Theatre.
- Pool and a pumping dance floor at the Bank Hotel.
- More than 150 affordable restaurants, including African, wittily-named Thai and Vietnamese.
- Getting gloriously lost amid the stacks in Gould’s Book Arcade.
- Decadent surrounds, tasty food and a fabulous view of the music talent at the intimate Vanguard.
And in Glebe
- City views from the Harbour Foreshore Walk, stretching from Jubilee Park to the Sydney Fish Market.
- All-day breakfasts, fair-trade coffee and organic meals along the long Glebe Point Road café strip.
- A succession of small, incense-infused spaces offering natural therapies, yoga instruction and aromatherapy oils.
- Live music and DJs at The Excelsior, cabaret and funk at Moskaba at the AB, and tapas and cocktails at Different Drummer.
- Writer talks over wine and cheese at Sydney literary institution, Gleebooks.
