Sydney Terrace In Historic Surry Hills

The Neighborhood

Surry Hills is an inner-city suburb of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. This neighbourhood is a creative central hub, home to the Brett Whiteley Studio and Belvoir St Theatre. Some of the city’s best organic cafés, lively pubs, fashionable wine bars, and hip boutiques can be found here. Surry Hills Markets are held in Shannon Reserve at the corner of Crown and Collins Streets, on the first Saturday of every month, and the Surry Hills Festival is an annual community event, attracting tens of thousands of visitors, held in and around Ward Park, Shannon Reserve, Crown Street and Hill Street. The Surry Hills Library and Community Centre sits opposite Shannon Reserve and houses the local branch of the city library and the Surry Hills Neighbourhood Centre. Locals appreciate expertly-crafted coffee and gourmet food and will wait patiently in line to be seated at a number of brunch institutions, like celebrity chef Bill Granger’s restaurant on Crown Street and The Bourke Street Bakery. Foodies are never short of dining options. Laid back yet still bustling during the workweek, Surry Hills really ramps up at night and on the weekends. Take your pick of award-winning eateries, multicultural cuisines, small bars, and lively pubs any night of the week.
