Zetland sits between Green Square, Waterloo and Alexandria, with public spaces, parks, indoor activities and places to eat nearby. From swimming and arcade games to green spaces and casual dining at East Village, there are plenty of ways to spend time in and around the area.
Eat at East Village
East Village brings together restaurants, cafes, and casual dining in the centre of Zetland. Stop in for a meal, coffee at Bowan Island Bakery, groceries from Coles, or a catch-up after a swim, park visit or indoor activity nearby. Parking is available at East Village, with approximately 700 spaces and two hours free parking.
Visit Green Square Library
Green Square Library is one of the area's most distinctive public spaces, with an underground library set within a public plaza, plus a glass tower and sunken garden. It is a quieter place to visit if you want something different from the usual cafe or park. Afterwards, head to nearby East Village, where you can pick fresh ingredients from Taste Growers Market or enjoy a bite to eat at a casual dining spot such as Murano Ristorante and Bar. It's an easy way to round out a relaxed day exploring Green Square.
Spend Time at Sydney Park
Sydney Park in Alexandria has wetlands, open lawns, walking paths, playgrounds, BBQs and picnic areas. It suits families, casual catch-ups or a few hours outside. Pick-up some activewear from Lorna Jane and enjoy a sunny day exploring the park.
