Miller's Point
Food scene
Have a coffee on the Harbour
The best side dish to accompany your poached eggs and cappuccino of a morning? A steaming hot plate of water views. The finger wharves at Millers Point and Walsh Bay were originally constructed to service the city’s fishing and wool trade but were converted into a cultural precinct in the 1990s, bringing theatres and restaurants to the waterfront — including Pier 8/9, a spacious two-storey storage shed. The Pier 8 cafe now boasts an extensive and sophisticated breakfast and lunch menu and serves some of the area’s best coffee, but the beautifully converted industrial space overlooking Sydney Harbour is the biggest drawcard.

Sightseeing
This theatre is another one of the heritage industrial buildings converted into a cultural space, transforming the old six-storey Bond Store 4 opposite Pier 6/7 into one of Sydney’s premier cultural venues. The 896-seat theatre opened in 2004 as the Sydney Theatre and was renamed the Roslyn Packer Theatre in 2015 to recognise one of the city’s most generous arts philanthropists, whose tradition continues today with a busy program of world-class productions by the resident Sydney Theatre Company and Sydney Dance Company, as well as drama, comedy and music from visiting Australian and international artists.

Stargaze at the Sydney Observatory
You’ll see more stars than the Hollywood Walk of Fame when you visit the Sydney Observatory, which offers day and night tours to marvel at the wonders of the Southern Sky up close, as well as a digital planetarium and museum. Originally a windmill then a fort and a signals tower, the site became an observatory in 1858 — an Italianate sandstone structure with two prominent telescope domes that house a 29cm refractor telescope built in 1874, the oldest still regularly used in Australia. If astronomy isn’t your cup of tea, the trip to Observatory Hill is still compulsory.

Have a beer at Sydney’s oldest pub
Established in 1841, the Lord Nelson Brewery Hotel is Sydney’s oldest continually licensed hotel and despite the old-world ambience, it’s hardly stuck in the past. In the 1990s, the pub upgraded its accommodation and added a brewery that now pumps out an award-winning selection of hand-crafted ales, the perfect tipple to wash down the modern Australian pub fare available for lunch and dinner. The Hero of Waterloo — dubbed Australia’s most haunted pub, complete with its very own trapdoor to the cellar from back in the rough-and-tumble sailor days.

Admire Australian art at the SH Ervin Gallery
This building housed a school between the 1850s and 1970s before it took on a different educative mission: to teach the public about Australian art. Samuel Henry Ervin’s bequest founded the gallery in 1978, which has been celebrating a diverse array of local artists for the four decades since, today hosting a rotation of seven exhibitions per year. The adjacent Trust Cafe boasts a refined seasonal menu as well as a selection of specialist art books and exhibition catalogues.
