We love the variety of Glebe Point Road

A fascinating dichotomy. A plush harbourside setting with a bohemian vibe. Unique mix of academics and activists, adjacent to two universities. Mesmerising second hand bookstores, inviting cafés, beautiful tree lined streets. Bountiful green space in Blackwattle Bay Park and Bicentennial Park. A dynamic pub scene and fascinating weekly markets. Authentic and honest. Glebe.

Cafes & Restaurants

1. Glebe Point Diner

407 Glebe Point Rd
This place is the antidote to bad dining. Think roast chook with bread sauce and super sweet corn kernels, black fig tart, peach Melba and honey ice-cream. Seasonal produce prepared and served with the utmost care and professionalism. Simple, locally sourced ingredients are cooked with skill and care. The menu changes daily and the wine list is completely local with an eye to the biodynamic....

2. Almustafa

23 Glebe Point Rd
To get good Lebanese in Sydney, most people will tell you to head to Lakemba, which is pretty much true - the majority of Lebanese joints closer to the heart of the Sydney are sub-standard or average at best. But the fare at this unassuming Glebe restaurant at the start of Glebe Point Road is exceptional. Its not just the usual gear they do well, either. Sure, their fouhl (crushed fava beans cooked down and mixed with lemon juice, olive oil and garlic) is damn good, as are their falafels and...

3. Wedge Espresso

53-55 Glebe Point Rd (Enter on Cowper St)
Glebe Point Road has sprouted a new café and we’re here to tell you it puts every other coffee slinger on the strip to shame. There’s a secret menu. There’s great coffee. Hell, even the sandwiches are worth a tilt. Wedge is owned and run by Toby Wilson. He was last seen pulling espressi at Surry Hills coffee destination Le Monde. It probably won’t surprise you to learn that the coffee here is the best thing this side of Mecca in Ultimo. What you might not know is that Wilson built the ...

4. Madame Frou Frou

381 Glebe Point Rd
Is Glebe the next Surry Hills? If the evidence to hand has anything to say about it, the answer is yes. Theres Wedge Espresso across the road from the school, two small bars just opened (Mr Falcons and the Little Guy, both on GPR) as well as the already opened slouch zone 99 Bar. The cherry on the cake is this new café, up by the Little Bottle Shop in Glebe. It’s the simple things here that make the place: pastries from Black Star, Victoire bread for the toast and...

5. Red Chilli Hotpot

15 Glebe Point Rd
At the new Red Chilli Hotpot restaurant, punters will feel the burn and do it anyway, says Myffy Rigby. Red Chilli: it’s the Sichuan restaurant that keeps on giving. And giving. And giving. There are two Red Chillis in the city, one in Burwood and now one on Glebe Point Road where it’s all about hotpots. Hotpots are incredibly popular in China, and are a specialty of the province of Sichuan. “But surely a giant copper pot of boiling spicy stock is the anithesis of what we need on a hot Sydney...

6. Tom-Yum Tum-Gang

249 Glebe Point Rd
Casual Thai in a modern style - authentic if not always correct. Try the spicy fried rice but avoid the Pad Thai - ok as a noodle dish but short of tamarind a little disappointing. All dishes $7.50 at lunch time and delivery for $2....

7. Mamak Village

25 Glebe Point Rd
Its a well known fact that Malaysian hawker food is one of the best cures for a nuclear hangover. Well, at least in our neck of the woods. Its that mix of clarified butter, salt, chicken fat and peanuts that really gets those booze-soaked receptors buzzing. And all those classics are here at this newish Malaysian joint at the bottom of Glebe Point Road. Head upstairs to grab one of the seats on the balcony and watch the activity down below. Roti of all persuasions are on offer, including...

8. Toku Toku

36 Glebe Point Rd
Deep-fried Mars Bars arent just a hangover from the 1990s. Oh no. Theyre a tempura reality of new Glebe izakaya Toku Toku. This eat house/drink house occupies an old terrace, right next door to Glebe Public School where the markets are held every Saturday. Its certainly a growth area, with the likes of Wedge Espresso opening soon down this end of Glebe Point Road, joining the general weekend mayhem of the popular Clipper Café. If you head down to Toku Toku on a Sunday afternoon be prepared for...

9. Fish on Fire

217a Glebe Point Rd

10. The Boathouse on Blackwattle Bay

Ferry Road
For a peerless Saturday lunch, our clams are on this one. Built above the Sydney rower’s club, you’ll often see people training with long skinny boats carving up the harbour. Look straight across towards the Sydney Fish Market with flags flicking and flapping in the breeze. The open room is decked with glass on all sides, thick white tablecloths and waitstaff who appear and disappear without a sound, with the likes of fresh shucked oysters like mineraly Wallis Lakes, Angassi flats and salty...
