We’ve spent over a decade encouraging our readers to buy from local artisans, seek out the very best local produce and shop the wares of local designers. It’s been a tough year, and these businesses need your patronage more than ever.

Check out the top-notch experiences, dishes and products from small businesses in Sydney, all handpicked by our editors, below.
