Well-Met by Moonlight at Dulwich Hill Village

Lets explore what happens as the sun sets on our favourite Inner West village, Dulwich Hill. As the weather warms up, many local operators are stepping up their game to offer locals even more great fare, fun and family atmosphere after normal business hours. Easy to get to, safe and great value, Dulwich Hill after dark is the perfect option for those that don’t want to leave the couch but want to soak up a vibrant village. Whether it is twilight cheese and wine after work, dinner with friends and family, a long boozy catch up with girlfriends or late night dessert indulgence, Dulwich Hill’s local nighttime attractions will help you get out and stay out (late)!

 For more updates go to facebook.com/dulwichhillvillage

We’ve divided the village into zones to make it easier to navigate and plan your night-time sojourn. So if you don’t get to it all in one night it you can come and visit a different zone another night.

Zone 1: West New Canterbury Road

Dolly’z Pasta (JBs on Canterbury)
Popular daytime café, JB’s on Canterbury, transforms into a cosy melting pot of cuisine by night called Dolly’z. Introducing Art Lounge evenings, Pasta

Miss Hu – Vietnamese and Asian Cuisine

At Miss Hu’s Vietnamese and Asian Cuisine try some of the best local Asian cuisine. Don’t let on-line mixed reviews deter you (a result of possible on-line ordering mismanagement), the food here is good. Specialising in Vietnamese cuisine, but extending to other Asian dishes such as Wagyu beef and Peking duck, Singapore style vegetarian laksa and Thai papaya salad, the chef’s broad approach to the menu does not disappoint.

Zone 2: East New Canterbury Road

Mr Dee’s – Piano Bar and Lebanese Restaurant

This long awaited opening has locals chomping at the bit. With an army of FOMO camera-ready foodies desperately waiting to get inside to see what Arabic jewels can be posted on Instagram first. The old Abla’s was an institution for decades and the furnishings (think 70s over the top Lebanese style with fitted Ottoman couches) will hopefully be retained to pay tribute to the old owners and also create hospitable, comfy vibe that oozes Jazz bar with Arabian Classics. There’ll be traditional and modern banquets with plenty of live music. Opening late September/early October. Watch this space

Sausage Factory – Sausages in a Small Bar

Chrissie Flanagan making sausages on site.

This on-trend sausage bistro, bar and cellar door is cool, classy and tasty. With real sausages made from real meat (certified free range) twisted in small batches made on site, strong and colourful owner, Chrissy Flanagan, is keeping it real and creating a super sausage haven right here in Dully. It has local beers, an innovative Aussie wine selection, excellent service, sausage knitting kits and for the more extreme, sausage dog knitting kits – what’s not to love.

And just when you thought all your dreams had come true, there are new dreams and new beer with a new offering, Sausage Queen Brewing. Like their sausages, beers will be totally independent, embrace lesser known styles and native ingredients and provide the good people of Dulwich Hill something to drink every day.

On 26th September they’ll be launching their first three beers on tap. Tasting paddles will be ten bucks for one night only.
