The Fenwick
Built in the 1880’s, The Fenwick is located in a historic stone building in Balmain East, with sweeping views from Barangaroo to the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge. The building was formerly known as the J. Fenwick & Co Boat Store and was originally built for use as a tugboat store.
Following significant refurbishments, this historic site has been repurposed as an absolute waterfront dining destination with a focus on fresh and seasonal local produce. The second floor has been transformed into an immersive gallery space, where guests can enjoy the works of local and international artists while they dine. Exhibitions rotate periodically and all artworks are available for purchase.
The Fenwick is part of the Sydney Restaurant Group, a family business founded by Bill & Kathleen Drakopoulos. Their children—Anastasia, Nicola, Daniel, and Perry—now serve as directors, embodying the family's vision of providing welcoming and affordable dining in beautiful locations.
