Osteria Mucca brings classic Italian dining and warm hospitality to Newtown, with deep roots in family tradition. ‘Mucca’ (Italian for ‘cow’) is in a former butcher shop, to honour the shop’s history, all the original tiles, worn edges and unique details have been preserved. Our menu features cherished family recipes and regional Italian classics, paired with hard-to-find wines from small, family-run vineyards and a range of aperitivo and digest

A small, lively seafood restaurant in the heart of Newtown, Mister Grotto feels somewhere between a fisherman’s cabin and a boat. The menu celebrates Australia’s incredible seafood, with a focus on quality produce, trusted suppliers and simple, fire-led cooking that lets it speak for itself. Oysters shucked to order, fish from the raw bar and the charcoal grill, plus a sharp wine list and playful cocktails. Book or walk in, everyone’s welcome.
