Sydney local legends

Sydney's neighbourhood superstars share their favourite places to go

We love Sydney’s villages, from the peaceful waterside neighbourhoods of Pyrmont and Glebe to the hustle and bustle of nighttime ’burbs like Darlinghurst and Newtown. But no one knows them quite like the locals who live, work and play in the area. These local legends are ambassadors for the suburbs they choose to spend their time in, whether they’re slinging cocktails, serving flat whites or showing you the best locally crafted products and artworks. Check out where they like to hang out in Sydney’s CBD, Haymarket, Darlo’ and Surry Hills.

Do you have a local business or favorite Sydney spot that deserves some love? Give them a shout-out using the hashtag #SydneyLocal, supported by the City of Sydney.
