Since I left You

Tucked between Town Hall and Wynyard in the lively YCK Laneways, Since I left You captures the city’s love of discovery with every plateful.

This cluster of small bars thrives on hidden doorways, attentive hospitality and the hum of Sydney after dark. The zone’s industrial heritage still whispers through its laneways, carriageways and old storehouses, setting a textured backdrop for intimate catch-ups and spontaneous nights out.

Snacky starts such as crack nuts and house-marinated olives pave the way for conversation and a second round. Then come the riffs: toastacos bring swagger with nacho average toasties like pollo picante 3.0 and smoky chorizo, a meeting of crunch, spice and smoke that nods to global street-food flair without losing its Sydney lilt.

Comfort takes centre stage with the French onion toastie and the cheeseburger toastie, both winking at classics while keeping things delightfully unfussy. For the table, cheese fondue invites dipping and lingering, while naked nachos offer a generous, pile-it-high moment built for sharing.

Whether slipping in from York, Clarence or Kent streets, guests find a cosy corner, polished service and the easy magnetism of a good time. Swing by for a quick bite or settle in for the night; this is a place to toast, taste and let the laneways work their charm.
