The Best Restaurants in Marrickville, Sydney (NSW)

Marrickville is an inner-west suburb with a vibrant food culture on the northern banks of the Cooks River. Marrickville still has industrial pockets but is increasingly becoming updated as new residents move to the area from surrounding pockets like Surry Hills, Paddington and Newtown. This has given the suburb a new vibrancy.

There is a strong heritage of Greek and Vietnamese immigrants in this neighbourhood which influences the food culture. You’ll also find Indian, Middle Eastern and American cuisine. Bars and casual dining are centred around Illawarra Road and along Marrickville Road, as well as within Marrickville Metro Shopping Centre. Marrickville has several craft beer breweries including Bucket Boys, Grifter and Batch Brewing. For a more cultural excursion, it’s also home to the new and incredible Marrickville library hub, just 15 to 20 minutes from the Sydney CBD on the train.
