It's picnic season — here's where to get everything you need for a dreamy spread in the park.
Sydney's Best Delis, Bottle Shops, Bakeries and Cheese Stores for Picnic Supplies
Thanks to ongoing restrictions and indoor capacity limits, picnics are set to take centre stage once again in Sydney. Alcohol restrictions have also been temporarily lifted from a bunch of Sydney parks, so you can throw down a picnic blanket on a patch of grass and catch up with friends over some top-notch snacks and vino.
While good company is the most important thing at any picnic, a little extra luxury can take your park session to the next level. To help you excel in all your future picnicking endeavours, we've rounded up some of Sydney's best spots to hit for quality picnic supplies — from fromageries to doughnut shops and delis, ready with everything you could possibly think up when it comes to putting together a spread. Some Sydney mainstays are even doing the hard work for you and putting together limited-edition hampers for this picnic season. So, go forth and stock that picnic basket like a boss.
