Local Dining around 271 Young St, Annandale

Annandale has an abundance of fantastic cafes and restaurants. Here are but a few.


Just around the corner is Clover Café which serves an amazing lunch and an even better breakfast.
They use free-range meat, organic eggs, the best quality parmesan in Australia, and (ahem) an excellent range of artisan breads and tarts. Big on healthy and quality food at reasonable prices.
Specialities include…
  • Eggs in Clover - Poached Eggs with Prosciutto and Mum's Tomato Relish and Aged Parmesan or with Basil and Macadamia Pesto and Pecorino
  • Clover Baked Big Breakfast Hot Pot: Home-made Baked Beans, Chorizo, Morcilla, Roast Capsicum, Fetta, Mushroom, Roast Tomato, Caramelised Onion and Organic Eggs
  • Clover French Toast with Sweetened Labne and Maple Syrup


Also around the corner is Booth St Bistro, a modern European style neighbourhood local. Located in a beautiful old building (once a chemist) full of old school elegance, it’s perfect for a celebration, Sunday lunch or mid-week treat . Standout dishes include Provencal style herb crusted Free Range Riverina Lamb rack and Oven roasted Tasmanian Salmon with Spencer Gulf prawn tails.
Here’s the expert opinion…



Vicini is another local favourite with delicious authentic wood-fired pizzas and more hearty dishes including Blue Swimmer Crab Linguini and NZ Scotch Fillet. Upstairs there is a balcony to take in the views and an open fireplace to keep warm next to in the colder months. Downstairs is a bit more casual and they also have a "kids eat free" deal before 7pm, Sunday to Thursday.


Next door to Vicini is Fish & Co. a great little restaurant with all of their fish and seafood being wild from sustainable sources both from Australia and New Zealand.  Cosy, friendly and delicious sums this place up.

Annandale also boasts Scorpios Greek Taverna, The Gallery Café, Crust Pizza, Bar Asia and of course the local pub North Annandale Hotel.
Have a stroll around the area though and you’ll find there’s plenty more to discover.
Salute.
