Makes me wish I could live on bread alone - their spelt sourdough is quite simply one of the best I have ever bought. I wish I lived closer so I could buy all my bread from them!

A meat-a-tarians paradise! If you order in advance, you can even book a table with friends to share a whole spit-roast pig! Definitely not for the faint-hearted (or vegetarians, unless you like omelettes). An experience not to be found elsewhere in Sydney though.

The best hairdresser I have been to in years. They really listen to what you want, and know how to translate it into a REALLY good style. Lots of helpful advice on the best look for you. Excellent colourists, and Shaz knows how to cut curly hair! Woo hoo!

Run by a lovely guy called Ishmael, who always goes out of his way to give you exactly what you're after. They've been here for years and have stood the test of time as a great family-run, family-friendly restaurant.

Good old fashioned suburban pizza place with super fast and amazingly friendly service! These guys have been across the road from Enmore Theatre for years now, and really know how to get piping hot, super tasty pizzas straight to your table, so you're never late for the gig - love these guys! Traditional or gourmet, and good pasta and salads too.

One of the best small time galleries around. Commitment to new and younger artists means that the prices are amazing considering what you get (an original piece of art), for around the same price as a mass produced print in a furniture shop - no contest! I have one artwork from a new 'Red' artist, and will be buying there as soon as I can afford another!

Nice beergarden and a pretty good bistro menu - the snacks are plenty big enough to share with friends (wedges, antipasto), and the specials are usually the best thing on the menu - changing regularly. The inside is still pretty old-school/dingy pub, but the garden has beautiful greenery and a nice atmosphere.

Long term bistro proprietors mean that the food is consistent, with meal options for kids, big friendly beergarden with a grassed play area, and a good mix of asian and typical pub food.

Amazing just for the range they pack into such a small shop! We did our own wedding invites there, they looked amazing and saved us a bundle! They also have a beautiful range of giftware - diaries, guest books, notebooks. Weel worth the visit if you're in the area.

The pub in Enmore everyone misses when they go to the theatre! Always empty when everywhere else is packed. Great renovations too. Bistro is coming soon, but unlike most places they're happy for you to order pizza deliveries into the pub.
