Did you know that our Sydney Lodges is a family-owned business?  The family’s 80+year-old patriarch opened one of the first European speciality deli’s in the area in the 1960s with the largest selection of continental imported goods in the country.  So we do pride ourselves for knowing quite a bit about tasty cheeses, cured meats and olives.

We are soooo lucky! Our Potts Point neighbourhood offers the best choice of Delicatessen, speciality stores and other local corner shops in Sydney!  Don’t miss our list of curated local shops below or the Saturday Farmer’s Markets at the El Alamein Fountain at the top of Macleay Street where it meets Darlinghurst Road.

POTTS POINT PROVIDORE A Stay Local Package partner*

Open Sunday to Wednesday 7am to 8pm and Thursday to Saturday 7am to 9pm

77 Macleay St, Potts Point NSW 2011 

Owned by a local providor – its a cafe, wine shop and deli with a lot more on offer than first meets the eye, there’s frittatas, baguettes, olives and cheeses, pastas and salads, great locally roasted coffee, pastries and mountains of freshly baked bread, with fresh home made dinner options and wine.

Beware produce runs out quickly here, so get it early if you want your choice of the best!

Perfect for that picnic by the Harbour or take-away dinner meals. The menu changes daily and staff enjoy providing a friendly service and cater for all individual tastes.

The same owner also has Bayswater Fine Wines – another establishment who partners with Sydney Lodges, to offer our guests a unique local wine seller, events and wine tasting experience.  Ask your reception, for the wine discount vouchers before you venture out.

SMALLS DELI                    A Stay Local Package partner*

Open Tues to Sunday 7.30am to 3pm; 166 Victoria Street, Potts Point. 

One of the newest deli’s on the block.  Small’s is a wonderful treat if you’re looking for something sweet or savoury to fill in the gaps between breakfast, lunch and dinner. Every day, locals queue for baguettes, paninis and sourdough sandwiches, made to order and packed with fresh ingredients, including house-made pickles, free-range salami and slowly ripened cheeses.  Jars of house-made jams, syrups and preserves line the shelves; garlic hangs from the celing; and a suspended fridge displays meats and cheeses, ready for slicing.

PENNY’S CHEESE SHOP

Open Tuesday to Saturday, 10 am to 4 pm, Shop 6, 127-139 Macleay street, Potts Point.

Don’t miss the small and cute cheese shop run by Penny Lawson who opened in 2018. It is THE place to go for all sorts of cheese discoveries. As well as being a passionate ‘Fromage’ expert, she also makes the most awesome toasties with a selection of 7 or 8 different kinds of cheese that vary every week and beautiful locally sourced sourdough bread. Pick up some local goodies and head to any of our nearby harbour front parks, sit in the sun and enjoy the fabulous views of Sydney Harbour while enjoying a picnic packed with tasty morsels.
