Saga Bar
$$$$•International•4.8(508)A mythical island oasis containing a magical hybrid of different influences from India, the Middle East & South East Asia. SAGA brings together the best of all things beautiful and delicious about these regions and combines them all in one unforgettable establishment. Let SAGA whisk you away to a haven where you can enjoy the world’s finest and most exclusive wines, unique and mouth-watering cocktails, and a perfectly seasoned and matching food menu to tie it all together.Chez Beckett's
$$$$•French•4.3(18)At Beckett’s Bar & Dining, we celebrate refined French cuisine guided by the creativity of our Head Chef Frédéric Plat.
Our menu showcases seasonal produce and classic techniques, featuring signature dishes such as Escargots en Cocotte baked in garlic butter, Classic Wagyu Beef Tartare and carefully prepared seafood and steak dishes that highlight the richness and elegance of French cooking. Each plate reflects our dedication to craftsmanship and the finest ingredients.
Our bar complements the kitchen with signature cocktails, elegant martinis and an award winning wine list recognised with Three Glasses at Australia’s Wine List of the Year Awards. Guests dine in a softly lit space where heritage character meets modern French style, creating an intimate and welcoming atmosphere. Live piano performances add a gentle sense of theatre, making every evening feel relaxed, social and unmistakably Parisian.
Holy Duck!
$$$$•Contemporary Asian•4.4(208)Located smack-bang between Central and Broadway, you’ll find Holy Duck! on Sydney’s favourite foodie laneway, Kensington Street. This is modern-Chinese cuisine at its ducking best. You’ll be saying “duck me!” when you taste how they transform traditional dishes into exciting new favourites. With a diverse menu of casual eats and next-level Chinese BBQ, Holy Duck! is a nod to the joys of Chinese street food.
Watch as the chefs expertly prepare crispy, succulent ducks from the huge, traditional hanging gallery. They’re delicious! Not in the mood to duck? No worries. There’s plenty of other meat and vegetarian options. Love hot and spicy? Just ask your friendly waiter for more chilli; that’ll really set off some firecrackers.Gavroche Chippendale
$$$$•French•4.3(388)Gavroche Brasserie is your little corner of Paris in the heart of Sydney. It brings not only classic French cuisine to Sydney, but also an accoutrement from the culinary epicentre of the country – like an imposing oakwood entrance from Lyon’s venerable Brasserie Georges, brass-railed banquette seating, oversized carved wooden bar and hand-painted tiled walls for an authentic Parisian experience.
Taste your way through our classic Parisian menu by French-born Chef Batiste Gouraud and his team, from escargots de bourgogne, steak frites and canard confit to the classic crème brûlée. With an array of classic dishes that capture the Parisian spirit, and a wine list with a mix of hand-selected French and Australian wines, you’ve got the buzz of Paris in the heart of Sydney!
Located inside the heritage-listed historic Old Rum Store located on the bustling Kensington Street in Chippendale. In close proximity to Sydney's Central Station and University of Technology.
