About Mary's Newtown

Slip past the graffiti wall and glowing red bulb into a dimly lit haunt slinging Sydney's benchmark smash burgers and fried chicken to a heavy metal soundtrack. The multi-level dive pairs wax sculptures and dead hanging flowers with serious comfort food. The order is simple: a classic cheeseburger—crusted, juicy beef packed into a soft bun with a side of fries automatically included—paired with savory mash and gravy or crisp fried chicken. Craft tinnies flow from the bar, QR codes handle the ordering without fuss, and the kitchen runs hot until midnight for post-gig feeds.

  • Benchmark Smash Burgers: Crusted smashed beef patties tucked into soft buns with fries included, backed by juicy fried chicken.
  • Gothic Dive Aesthetic: Multi-level dive-bar interior with graffiti-covered walls, wax sculptures, candlelit tables, and loud rock music.
  • Midnight Kitchen Service: A full kitchen running until midnight, making it a reliable stop for hot meals post-gig.
  • Savory Sides & Sweets: Comforting sides like rich mash and gravy, plus freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

Why Choose Mary's Newtown

Why diners choose Mary's Newtown for burgers, drinks, and late-night rock-and-roll atmosphere.

  • Juicy, Flavor-Packed Smash Burgers

    Fresh, generously seasoned smashed patties and soft buns deliver rich flavor and juiciness without excessive grease.

    I like that it's not overly greasy like a lot of burgers you get nowadays, but it still maintains a nice juiciness in the meat.

  • Fries Included with Every Burger

    Burgers automatically come served with a side of crispy fries, avoiding unexpected à la carte side charges.

    Burger comes with side of fries so price tag of 24 is quite ok.

  • Late-Night Dining Until Midnight

    The kitchen remains open until midnight, offering a hot meal and drinks after evening shows and late outings.

    they don't close until midnight which is a bonus for us night owls.

  • Post-Gig Convenience

    Mary's provides a welcoming spot for post-gig gatherings when most other neighborhood kitchens have shut down.

    it was conveniently open late so we could have a bite after attending about concert.

  • Unmatched Rock-and-Roll Dive Aesthetic

    Candlelit tables, wall graffiti, and wax sculptures set an immersive rock dive aesthetic across multiple levels.

    The aesthetic is completely unmatched—candlelit tables surrounded by floor-to-ceiling graffiti and killer wall art.

  • Heavy Metal Pub Atmosphere

    A heavy metal soundtrack and high-energy music infuse the venue with a distinctive pub vibe.

Signature smash burgers and fried chicken that anchor the Mary's Newtown menu.

  • Cheeseburger

    Mary's by far has the best Cheeseburger that I have ever eaten, not only in Sydney, but the whole world. I'm not sure what sort of magic they do in the kitchen, but their Cheeseburger takes me to a very special place.

  • Mary's Burger

    We got the classic Mary’s Burger (grass-fed beef, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion + Mary’s sauce) — and for me, they swapped in a lettuce cup instead of the bun (GF-friendly touch, much appreciated) 🥬✨

  • Fried Chicken

    I would also rate the chicken - and I typically don’t even like fried chicken, but this was incredible.

  • Cauliflower Burger

    We had the Mary's burger with an extra patty and bacon, the cauliflower burger (both came with fries) and shared a half cauliflower side with mayo and szechuan sauce. Absolutely unreal, stuffed and happy!

Before you head over

Practical advice on ordering, timing, and finding the venue

  • Fries Come Included with Burgers

    Burgers automatically come served with a side of hot fries included, so you do not need to order a separate side of chips unless you want extras.

  • Watch for the Unmarked Entrance

    Look out for the unassuming doorway just off King Street near Newtown Station, as the exterior gives few hints of the multi-level dining space and bar inside.

  • Rely on Service Until Midnight

    Kitchen service runs late until midnight, making it a reliable destination for post-concert feeds and late-night drinks when other nearby spots have closed.
