Hunter & Barrel Parramatta

Hunter & Barrel sits on George Street in Parramatta, on Sydney's famous 'Eat Street' dining strip in the city's west. Part of the well-known grill-and-bar group, it's a much-loved restaurant — combining quality, fire-grilled food (with a focus on meat) and a great range of barrel-aged drinks with a warm, characterful setting, the kind of accomplished spot that's right at home on a strip packed with great dining.

The appeal is that combination of quality grilled food, a good barrel-aged drinks offering and a relaxed, characterful atmosphere in a prime Parramatta location, ideal for a special dinner, a meal with friends, a date or a sociable night out. On Parramatta's celebrated Eat Street, a restaurant that's nailed both its food and its drinks really stands out, and Hunter & Barrel has clearly won over a loyal following.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 800 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners.
