Notes from Playfair Street

Fresh-bread sandwiches, burger choices and quick-stop ideas for lunch, ferry trips and evening bites in The Rocks.

Fresh choices

Fresh bread, salad bowls and lighter choices

North balances burgers and schnitzel sandwiches with vegetarian fillings and salad bowls built with grains, greens and roast vegetables.

The menu is not only heavy burgers. Vegetarian sandwiches include roasted veggie, veggie patties and grilled halloumi, while salad bowls bring quinoa, greens, kale, cabbage, carrot, roast vegetables and sesame dressing into the mix.

It keeps the shop flexible for quick weekday lunches, lighter takeaway and groups choosing different styles of meal.

Burgers, chips and the Say Yes order

The Say Yes burger and crisp chips are a reliable route into the North burger menu.

Our burger list starts with wagyu beef, American cheese, pickles, tomato, lettuce and lemon mayo in the Say Yes burger.

Add chips or move into smoky maple bacon, chipotle ketchup, buttermilk chicken or grilled halloumi when the order calls for something richer.

Ferry-ready sandwiches for a fast Circular Quay stop

Fresh bread, sturdy fillings and generous portions make North an easy Playfair Street choice before a ferry or harbour walk.

When the day is moving, our sandwiches are built to travel well. Fresh bread, bright salad, warm fillings and bold sauces make them easy to take from Playfair Street toward Circular Quay.

Choose a classic Chicken Schnitzel, Grilled Chicken, Halloumi or one of the bigger gourmet fillings when lunch needs to be quick but substantial.
