Life in Stanmore, 2048.
Stanmore is one of those suburbs that feels like it’s right on the cusp of something big, quietly offering all the best elements of the Inner West, with a touch of tranquillity and charm. Tucked between Newtown and Enmore, and just a stone’s throw from the vibrant streets of Marrickville, Stanmore is full of hidden gems and local favourites. Here are a few of my favourite things about living in Stanmore:
The Local Cafés
Stanmore is home to a number of fantastic cafés, with Mina’s Café being a long-time favourite of locals. Known for its great coffee, hearty brunch options, and relaxed atmosphere, it’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy some quality time with friends or family. Another local spot worth visiting is Hearthe—a beloved specialty cake shop and bakery where you can grab a perfect brew and watch the world go by.
Something a Little Fancy
Hatted restaurant Sixpenny put Stanmore on Sydney’s fine-dining map and is the place to go for special occasions. I might be bias by the name, but it is definitely worth dining in for.
The Enmore Theatre
Though technically just around the corner in Enmore, The Enmore Theatre is an iconic venue that locals in Stanmore love to visit. Whether it’s a live music gig, a comedy show, or a movie screening, this historic theatre is an entertainment hotspot that brings a unique energy to the area. It’s the perfect place for a night out, and you’ll always find something exciting on the schedule.
The Family-Friendly Atmosphere
Stanmore has a real community feel, and that’s especially evident in its abundance of family-friendly activities. Stanmore Public School is a well-respected institution that attracts local families, and the surrounding streets are filled with leafy trees and cozy homes. The neighbourhood is known for its welcoming atmosphere, where everyone knows each other and is always ready for a friendly chat. It’s the type of place where kids play on the streets, and there’s always a sense of calm and connection.
The Local Shops and Markets
Stanmore may not have the same large shopping centres as some of its neighbours, but it makes up for it with its charming local shops and regular markets. The Stanmore Village is a vibrant, quirky strip that features a range of boutique stores, small cafes, and delicious eateries.
Stanmore’s unique mix of family-friendly living, café culture, and proximity to some of the best spots in the Inner West make it a perfect place to call home. Whether you’re exploring the local parks, grabbing a coffee at your favourite café, or enjoying a night out at The Enmore Theatre, there’s always something special about living in this quiet yet vibrant suburb.
