Best Street Markets in The Phoenix

"A holiday to Sydney is incomplete without spending an hour (or five) at Paddy's Market. Expect to get lost, splash some cash and hunt down a bargain. Conveniently located between Chinatown and Sydney Central, you’ll snag costumes, phone cases, leather goods, and all the Aussie themed trinkets and souvenirs you’ll ever need."

"The market is around 150 years old and houses a ton of stalls that sell souvenirs, food, and the trendiest fashion. You won’t be able to find branded goods here. This is where you’ll be able to find vegetables and CDs from another time."

"It’s been a significant fixture in the local community, having been around now for over 150 years. Its origins date back to 1834 when then-Governor..."

"Where traditional dishes are executed with flair and focus on the complex flavours of France. Owner and head chef Jay travelled and studied the gastronomic art of French cuisine and brought it here to Sydney. This French kitchen offers a range of traditional Gallic cuisine, from croque monsieur to steak tartare along with pommes frites, ratatouille or a fresh baguettes."

"In the heart of the bustling Crows Nest restaurant district lies Le Bouchon, a complete Café and Bistro destination that brings a taste of traditional French cuisine to the Lower North Shore. This is one of the best French restaurants in Sydney and features unique decor and an exclusive private function area. Le Bouchon is the perfect place to enjoy an intimate dinner or just a simple after work drinks."

"Used in Lyon to refer to bistros that are well-known for authenticity and conviviality, expect something of this nature from Le Bouchon café and bistro on Willoughby Road in Crows Nest."

"Far less popular than the touristy Bondi to Coogee hike, the Spit to Manly Walk is a quieter alternative with more natural busy and varied views. A stunning day hike along the North Sydney harbor coastline that weaves its way through a mix of lush bushland and scenic harbourside trails with secluded beaches, indigenous rock carvings, and panoramic lookouts along the way. You can hike the 10km (6.2 miles) trail in 3.5 hours in a hurry, but I recommend you take your time and enjoy the sights and sounds."

"If you fancy stretching your legs, the walk from Manly to Spit Bridge is a pleasant 2-3 hour coastal walk with amazing views over the ocean. Catch the ferry to Manly harbour and head round the coast – make sure not to miss the ancient aboriginal carvings along the way. When it comes to free things to do in Sydney, this is one of the most popular for good reason."
