Why it's worth checking out
The Fenwick sits on Weston Street in Balmain East, in a superb waterfront position on Sydney Harbour. A popular restaurant with lovely views across the water to the city and the Harbour Bridge, it makes the most of its prime location on the Balmain peninsula — a genuine destination for a meal with one of the loveliest outlooks in the inner west.
The appeal is that combination of quality dining and a beautiful harbourside setting, ideal for a relaxed lunch, a special dinner or drinks with a view. With the ferry wharf right there and the charming Balmain East surrounds, it's an easy and scenic spot to settle in and enjoy the harbour.
With a 4.6 rating from more than 3,200 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular waterfront restaurant fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're after a table with the best of the harbour views, dining with a group, or marking a special occasion.
