Overview

The CBD's new coffee-filled laneway precinct is about to officially launch — and it's doing so with free food and drinks aplenty. The Barrack Place Block Party is going down on Friday, April 12 from midday and will see the laneway's vendors give out over 500 complimentary meals and drinks throughout the arvo.

Expect cold brew coffees and pastries from St Dreux; probiotic tonics and lemonades from Cali Press; mini beef pho from Bar Pho; specialty coffee, sandwiches and wraps from Batch Espresso; and the signature rou jia mo from Mo'st — that's a Chinese sandwich stuffed with stewed pork belly, capsicum, coriander and chilli. Plus, Barber and Co will offer up free G&Ts and Seedlip will sling non-alcoholic cocktails, including grapefruit spritzes and basil smashes.

Apart from all the eats and drinks, there'll be free neck massages, games and a DJ set by Sydney local Alice Quiddington, as well as beanbags to enjoy your freebies on. Only the first 100 customers at each venue will nab the free stuff, though, so best get in early.

Barrack Place Block Party runs from midday–4pm.
