Nags AMarch 28, 2015Beautiful part of Sydney ! A mixture of the old Sydney with some really nice look out points of the the opera house and harbour bridge. Nice restaurants and bars/pubs around as well !
TingDecember 20, 2014Very popular with tourists for a reason. Apart of the great view of the Opera house, this area is one of the earliest settlements in Sydney and is full of quaint architecture. Worth exploring.
Natalya ShantyDecember 24, 2015On weekends there is a nice market,where f example you can buy smth f eat f $10 & walk to the ocean enjoy the view with your food.Guys either Turks, or Greeks prepare delicious tortillas with cheese
Mark MorsiJune 24, 2013The Rocks is a must walk for anybody visiting Sydney, or if you are Sydneysider just looking for a nice walk. :) Go west of the bridge to the less touristy side.
Great place to wander around, lots of nooks and crannies to explore with tidbits about life in the colony. Sunday markets are worth a look, lots of interesting things.
T.September 11, 2016One of my favourite areas in Sydney. History and lovely cafes and pubs. Weekend markets are great!
- Hugo FauquenoiAugust 12, 2014Get off the beaten path and roam around the charming streets of the first European settlement in Australia. Starting point for the Harbour Bridge. Great view of Sydney. A true gem
Bianca BuenoDecember 18, 2015The coat of arms. Half emu and half kangaroo pizza :-) + beer of the month.
Emma HedgesAugust 10, 2018Check out the little bakeries and restaurants and pubs. And for the tourists, walk the alleyways for hidden history!
Pedro MercesNovember 4, 2014Great place to hangout, check out galleries & museums, have a drink or something to eat.
- 4sq SydneyOctober 29, 2011A living proof that Sydney has been high on spirits even 200 years back. Find the oldest pub in Sydney and also find a self-cook steak place. Enjoy Sydney!
- Brad KeelingJanuary 10, 2010Historic pubs, magnificently preserved 18th century buildings, yet it was nearly all pulled down. In '73 the famous 'Green Ban' was placed on the Rocks. Read See Hear more history where it happened Read more

Cinderina StoryAugust 6, 2015One of historical places in Sydney, plenty of cafes and restaurants here
Lynne RJuly 30, 2014The G'day Cafe does a great coffee. Really friendly staff and the location is great.
For some good Japanese food in the rocks, check out Nakashima on Cambridge Street (It's off Argyle). Truly well hidden gem!
Elliot ChanceMay 26, 2015Full of old pubs. Most with great craft beers. Some cafes are heavy on tourists but that doesn't mean the quality is low.
MakeMyTrip. comSeptember 9, 2011In the summer it's an attractive venue for a night out, and among other things contains the highest concentration of historic pubs in Sydney. Read more
Jacqui RuddOctober 5, 2011Forgot how much fun Sydney can be... Just don't go more than around 4km's out of city centre
The oldest suburb in Sydney. Named for Arthur Phillip's command upon mooring in what is now Circular Quay, "chain the prisoners up to the rocks!"
Be careful of the birds. If u eat at the food court guard your food and cover it. The birds WILL steal it from your bowl right in front of you if you do not cover/hover over it.
Get lost, but only once. Not as whimsical as NSW Govt will have you believe
Dare in The Rocks' Square has terrific food for people with allergies or dietary restrictions.
