For as long as anyone can remember, Arthur’s Pizza has been a Paddington institution. Find a comfy spot and prepare yourself for classic old-school pizza with a thin and crispy pan-base crust and vintage flavours. There’s something about Arthur’s that will take you back to childhood, guaranteed.
This fabulous takeaway brings rotisserie food to Paddo with a bang. Produced next door in the kitchen of The Paddington, expect restaurant-quality roast chooks, wholesome, nourishing salads and fantastic roast spuds. Perfect for when a big night in beckons.
Bustling and cheerful, Christo’s is the ultimate family restaurant. Order up big on hearty pizzas topped with the lot. Little ones can make as much mess as they like, especially at the outdoor tables, while adults chat each other up over glasses of wine and slices of garlic bread as they watch the world go by. A Paddington Five Ways institution.
This narrow terrace space hosts one of the neighbourhood’s most cheerful venues. Don Pedros may not be so authentically Mexican, but nobody cares when they’re tucking into delicious crispy prawn tacos over chilli margaritas. Go on Tuesdays when all tacos are $5 and the atmosphere is fun-filled.
With its prominent position at Five Ways, in one of the suburb’s most recognisable corner terraces, this long-time Paddo Thai is a community favourite. Go for excellent curries, spicy salads and hearty stir-fries, and soak up the atmosphere of being in the heart of the village. The lovely Thai staff look after every customer as if they are family.
There’s nothing better than sitting alfresco at Five Ways on a warm night over some excellent Vietnamese food at Mr T. This thriving local’s favourite offers crowd-pleasing dishes from pho to rice paper rolls, using quality ingredients. In winter, the cosy indoor space is also a winner.
