"Nestled between Darling Harbour and Chinatown, Darling Square is one of the city’s newest districts for shopping and dining. It’s centered on Steam Mill Lane, an artsy alleyway with a Tokyo vibe where you can choose between coffee and sandwiches or bubble tea and banh mi. Consider returning for noodles, whiskey, and karaoke at Bang Bang after dark. The Square has fashion covered too, whether you’re after new specs or eco-friendly threads. And once you’re all dined and shopped out, grab a city bike and head to The Goods Line, an elevated pedestrian and cycling path built on former train tracks like New York’s High Line. The Frank Gehry-designed Dr. Chau Chak, or “paper bag” building, is a good resting place."

Great location at Darling Square, good menu, unfortunately they don’t offer vegetarian or vegan pancakes but salads are an option for those with dietary restrictions. Unfortunately they do not offer table service and you have to order via a QR code or at the counter yet are still asked if you want to give a tip. The floor needed a good sweep. The place did not seem clean.

New! This library building was designed by Kengo Kuma & Assoc. of Japan and occupies floors 2 & 3. The main floor has access to public computers, an inviting lounge, meeting rooms to rent, a Maker Space with 3D printing and all kinds of cool electronic bits for checkout.
This is a community library and ABSOLUTELY gorgeous.
On floor 1 there are a host of restaurants and bars!
Out front there is seating and even a little grass area with tables & umbrellas.
This is worth visiting just to see the building! As a tourist you could also relax, read & catch up on email~
