Mary's On Top
You've loved those burgers in their original Newtown location, you've loved them at their outlet on Clarence Street, you've even loved them in Melbourne. And now, here they are on the roof at the Lansdowne Hotel. If that's not a good excuse to get outside this week, we don't know what is.

Bathers Pavilion
Bathers is back, and they're serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Staggered, of course, in line with the 50 person restriction, but still. Chances of getting in for an order of the smoked eel ravioli are certainly looking up. But take heed - they can't take walk ins.

Shady Pines
Kick up your heels and dust off those chaps. The rootenest, tootenest saloon in Sydney is back in action for all your beer, bourbon and sad country music needs. Numbers are limited just like everywhere else in town, so go early and don't roll more than two or three pals deep.

Rockpool Bar takes over Spice Temple
It's a burger heavy week. But when it's two of Sydney's best, we'll deal. For just one month, Rockpool Bar will be taking over Spice Temple offering burgers, beers and, even better, Spice temple's signature spicy chicken wings.

Icebergs
Their current party line is "it doesn't taste like this at home". It's true. Nothing could ever compete with sitting over Bondi Beach with a glass of wine, some ribbons of prosciutto and a handful of mates knowing you're settling in with no place better to be.
