The 31 Best Places To Eat & Stay In Sydney - The Infatuation

"There are a few things you must do when you come to Sydney: see the Opera House, lie out on Bondi Beach, and, if you’d like to spend a lot of money to be semi-terrified, climb the Harbour Bridge. Eating a lamington—cube of sponge cake dipped in chocolate and covered in coconut—should also be on that list, and Flour and Stone’s version (they soak theirs in panna cotta) is the best one in the city. The bakery is small and popular, so if you can’t find a table to sit with your coffee and cake, take it all with you as you walk along the Woolloomooloo Wharf. They also have a regular stall on Saturdays at the Carriageworks Farmers Market in Eveleigh (another Sydney must-visit)." - Caroline Clements 33

Tried their plain croissant and wow, easily one of the best in Sydney. The lamination was flawless with beautiful, defined layers and a deep golden finish that hinted at the buttery richness inside. Crisp and shattery on the outside, yet airy and tender within. You can tell they don’t skimp on technique or quality ingredients. The shop itself is small but charming, with a warm and homely vibe. Staff were friendly and efficient despite the steady stream of customers. Everything in the display looked stunning, from cakes to sandwiches to tarts. I’ll definitely be back to try more. If you’re a croissant purist or just love well-executed pastries, this is a must-stop.

Take away the almond croissant and panacota lammington for breakfast. All is good but the almond croissant is outstanding. The texture is superb! Crunchy outside yet fluffy inside. Some queue on the morning. The service is fast and friendly.

Discovered this little gem by chance when I got a off the bus right in front of it. Had some time to kill so decided to get some breakfast. Spoilt for choice, I went for a plain croissant and the usual strong flat flight. There is very limited seating but I got a little table inside. Coffee is brought from next door where also take away offers are. The croissant was amazing, super flaky and buttery and just melt in your mouth. There were so many other amazing baked good on offer but that will have to wait for my next visit..and there will be more. The staff are super friendly and attentive too. New favourite bakery unlocked!

When high expectations meet reality. Exceptional pastries, managed to try three! Blueberry scones, Italian Easter tart, leek quiche thing. There was an excellent range of choices beyond that! And some hot food as well. Soldiers and soft boiled eggs on Fridays and Saturdays! Better be good soldiers cause I'm not sure why you would given all the other choices... But hey! I am going to have to try next time now... It is incredibly cosy, not much room in the sit down area - but if you can do! Otherwise go to the Annexe down the road and get takeaway. And the coffee was good!

We ordered the morning bun and almond croissant. The morning bun was great but the almond croissant was meh. It doesn’t have any almond filling and the almonds were burnt. I’ve tasted way better almond croissants than this and it’s a bit overpriced for 10.50 aud for a croissant with just a bit of almond on top. Also, the server, Alana was not accommodating.

THEIR SCONES ARE THE BEST IVE EVER HAD! So fluffy and moist and delicious. Pistachio cake and other items were just as amazing. Came two days in a row and will most certainly come back again.

We’ve been enjoying cakes from Flour and Stone for over five years now, and they never fail to impress. From the indulgent Almond Rocher to our most recent purchase, the Blackberry Forest, every creation has been exceptional. The Blackberry Forest — a flourless chocolate twist on the classic Black Forest cake — was absolutely divine. Rich, decadent, and perfectly balanced, it was a hit with everyone in the family. Each bite drew compliments, and it disappeared quickly! Flour and Stone consistently delivers beautifully crafted, delicious cakes and pastries. Their quality and flavour never disappoint — truly a Sydney gem.

Unique and delicious. Worthwhile to come in and try something different from the norm at this little bakery. I want to try everything I can set my eyes on. My stomach on the other hand knows my limits. Friendly service in this boutique bakery. Put it on your list.

Another staple dessert to try when in Sydney. Interesting flavor and more on the heavy side. Base is a butter pound cake w a berry compote and chocolate and coconut on the top. It's strong on the chocolatey coconut side so if you're not a fan of these two I wouldn't recommend. Larger than what I expected. Another one of those things you'll have to try it at least one when in Sydney

Quaint cafe with some awesome pastries! Really flaky onion pastry that had a nice sweetness. The sandwich was also very hearty and I really enjoyed the sauce.

A Canadian, this was my first time in Australia and was craving for a meat pie as my first meal (not counting the McDonald's brekkie post-flight), so I Googled what was near Hyde Park. Luckily, Flour and Stone was in the vicinity and did not disappoint! The chicken, leek, and tarragon pie came recommended by the server and proved to be the perfect balance of rich and savoury filling and buttery and flaky crust. Interestingly, if you want to dine in, you order from the Annex two doors down then walk your tray up to the Pantry. And staff and friendly and passionate about their pastries. Definitely coming back for the rendang beef pie!

I had to get a famed lamington before leaving australia! This one didn't disappoint. I also had some super rich chocolate pie.... Perfect treat!

Sometimes long line doesn't mean great food. Maybe we didn't order the right things, but I think 3 is a pretty representative sample size. The sourdough crumpet (served with honey and cream) is rubbery with no crispiness at all. The apple tart is fine, although both filling and crust are kind of bland. The custard lamington doesn't quite work for me. I admire their creativity for doing a custard-cake hybrid. But it comes across as either a very grainy custard or a really soggy cake.

What a gem! I absolutely love everything about this place! The food, the staff, the philosophy.... They have the best croissants in Sydney, the crumpet with whipped ricotta and honey is to die for, and of course, the Lamingtons are a must!

Thank God for Nadine Ingram!! Not only do I absolutely love her old style sweets on offer, the savoury items are just as good. Usually a place that does sweets well, do not savoury items well. The fact that EVERYTHING here is good says a lot about the owner and staff. There is no pretence here. Just good old fashioned honest food. Love! Love! Love! I'm not a regular, but when I do visit, you know the deal with the line. I have been here at its busiest and the staff there work like a production line. I was sooooo impressed by the staff member who was so on the ball and kept things moving. Worth the visit. Worth every single calorie. Only reason I don't like this place is bc I want every single item on offer. But stomach says no.

What a lovely bakery! It was definitely one of the highlights of my short stay in Sydney. Every morning I would have breakfast and coffee at this lovely place and it was always a great start of the day. I can't wait to go back once the pandemic is over!

After reading multiple positive reviews from various sources, Flour & Stone had been on my wishlist for quite sometime. When I finally got to try it earlier in the week, I was hopeful. Meh. Wish I agree with the other yelpers but I dont. Dont get me wrong, the pastries I tried were good. There just wasnt a "wow" factor....if you know what i mean. Zucchini, chilli and gruyere bun ($3.50) : Interesting flavor combination, especially with the mild hint of chilli but not overpowering. Pretty good when toasted. It was just *a little* too dry for my tastebud. Hazelnut torte ($5.50) : Pretty good. I like the hazelnut on top, giving texture to the torte Lemon tart ($4.50) : Not spectacular , average. The guys working there were very nice and patient with me as I had difficulty picking what I want. (luckily there were not other customers!) I will go again if I happen to pass by....but if not, I would not be making a special trip to Flour and Stone again. *sorry fans*

Amazing place to get tea, coffee, and a bite. Wonderful Chai tea (brewed pot by pot), great coffee, and delicious croissants, sandwiches, and quiche! This has become a morning staple for our adventurous days. So glad to have been recommended this place from our host!

Cute little shop. Delicious ice coffee with ice cream. Quick and easy, although it seemed like I could have sat there and ate pastry after pastry for hours.

Probably the best avocado on toast I've had, simply for the stunning sourdough. It was very busy on arrival, so take-away was the only option. The food was very well packaged given this. Cash only if you want to avoid the surcharge on cards. Will be back hopefully to enjoy breakfast in house.

This place is crazy busy. We found a table but there was a constant line the whole time we were seated. For being a bakery, I was surprised by the lack of backed goods offered - they had cakes and sandwiches and not much in between. I tried the Lamington (traditional Sydney cake with coconut chocolate frosting, vanilla soak panne cotta cake and cherry filling) and the salami sandwich. The sand which was was decent and had nice flavors and the cake was actually quite moist and not too sweet. Would have liked more of the fruit filling and there wasn't quite enough to balance the cake. A slice of cake was $7.00. The room is quite small and seating squished. Service friendly although they did set the wrong sandwich down in front of us and after taking a bite they realized their mistake and made it sound like our fault that we ate the wrong one. Wouldn't make a special trip back but if I was really craving something sweet and worked upon the block it could be a decent option.

Everything we ate here was amazing! Interesting flavors like custard quince tart. Wonderful light textures for their donut equivalent. Exotic tasting fudgie cherry brownie

A really cute little spot.. But when I say little- it's little! So popular people can't fit inside Only wish it was a bigger shop. Amazing chai lattes and gingerbread shaped as a sheep

What a pleasant little place. I walked in twice durning my trip here in Sydney. The first time I purchased a mocha and the second time I purchased a sausage roll. The mocha was small but satisfying and the sausage roll was filling. On my birthday my friend surprised me with an Australian dessert called Lamington. Lamington is a sponge cake with a raspberry filling. The cake is dipped in chocolate and covered with coconut shavings. An absolute must try.

What can I say? I'd move to Sydney just for this bakery. I have never been more wow'd by a bakery like I have for Flour and Stone. I've tried a range of their stuff and I wish I had more. That salted caramel tart had me going mental! The lemon drizzle cake I had? I would have bought 30 if I had known they were that good. Alas I was already back in Adelaide by the time I bought it. Speaking of which, their goodies travel well. Buy loads as gifts!! The ladies who work at the bakery are also sweethearts. Not stingy at all with their baking advice, they dished it out to anybody who asks! If you mention to them that their goodies will be travelling, they will pack it up extra securely. Our precious cargo made it to Adelaide fine! Except for the lamington that got devoured on the plane. Ahem. The decor is cute and their portions generous. I really, really wish I lived in Sydney just for them!

There is no better lamington than a Flour and Stone lamington. And if there's a better cake to be had, which I doubt, I'd like to hear about it. Plus, the olive sourdough bread is the best I've had in probably 20 years - they use huge, juicy olives, not those nasty things that you see on cheap pizza, that look like Lego car tyres. Enough said. Everything these guys do is exceptional.

When I went to Australia I knew I wanted to try a lamington, a traditional Australian cake with chocolate, coconut, and a raspberry filling. I heard that Flour and Stone is a good bakery so I decided to stop here for one. It's a small cafe tucked away on a side street near the Australian Museum and St. Mary's Cathedral. The staff of course is super friendly and they have a nice selection of savory items in addition to sweets. I tried their chicken, leek and tarragon pie and it was delicious! However they don't have the same items everyday. When I asked to try another pie that was on the menu they said they didn't have it that day. Anyway, back to the lamington- the reason I'm giving this place a five star review! It was an awesome cake! Super moist with just the right amount of raspberry, chocolate, and coconut (I think there might have been a bit of cream in the center too)! It even comes in this super cute little box that is especially made for the lamingtons. Anyway, if you're ever in Sydney this place is a must!

Hard to find and even harder to leave without an armful of delicious treats. I'm slowly eating my way through the array of handmade baked goodies. From possibly the best lamingtons I have ever tasted, to slab cakes and even nougat, this tiny shop hidden away is a real find!

Actually going there is not convenient for me, I have to across the whole Botanic Garden and take 20 minutes walk. However, the recommendation of my picky friend attracted me. The shop is very small and located in the quiet street, no big sign outside but you cannot miss it because there are no other shops around it. The atmosphere inside is lovely, everything is cute, the ginger biscuit has so many shapes and packed for different topic. I order lemon tarts and shared with colleague when I am back in office. We all shocked for this delicious. The start skin is very fragile, even can't hold it for long. Lemon filling is sour but just alright, fresh smell and smooth texture. I would go there again to try more~
