Gateway Sydney Food Court, Sydney

A true dining landmark in the heart of Circular Quay, Gateway Sydney is the answer to all foodie's prayers. Literally packed with a spoiling choice of 30+ cafes, restaurants, pubs and hole-in-the-wall outlets, it caters to each and every thinkable breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner or drinking need – 7 days a week.

Set in a light-filled, contemporary environment, the precinct was designed to open up the streetscape. Attesting to this is a beautiful, upscale presentation, making visitors want to return to this food court again and again. Intimate seating areas enhanced by re-imagined Jessie Street Gardens provide space for diners to eat whatever cuisine they like. And there’s no shortage of what they can choose from.

The offerings are truly diverse, from smashed avocado at Urban Orchard to crepe suzette at Four Frogs Creperie to koshari – a popular Egyptian street food – at casual Egyptian-fusion restaurant Bekya. With a ravenous appetite, you can take it further to Tokyo Laundry, Chat Thai, Burger Project by Neil Perry or a new live Japanese BBQ offering from David Loh on level one.

Further, if you still have room to spare, you may want to explore Hurricanes Grill on level two, Popina (two-level restaurant) or the rooftop terrace with Salt Meats Cheese and North Bondi’s Shuk fuming with Turkish, Italian, and Argentinian flavours.

Just make sure to come on an empty stomach so as to appreciate this wonderland of food in its entirety.
