Relish Food Co

The verdict

Joining their passion for quality food and local produce, business partners Steven and mother Justine created Relish Food Co: a food store-catering hybrid in Surry Hills renowned for their delicious and reliable food. Located on Albion Street, Relish Food Co catches the eyes of pedestrians for its adorable white exterior, which compels you to walk in and appreciate the cute décor. Think pressed metal counters, wooden benches, an exposed brick wall and inviting window seating to set the scene. Interiors aside, the coffee, daily baked goods and ever-changing menu of salads, sandwiches and rustic home cooked meals are the main reason people love Relish.

If you're able to look past their famous range of 15 different gourmet sandwiches (which is hard because, well, sandwiches) then you should definitely order the piri piri chicken salad. This dish features a generous serving of red and white quinoa, strips of roasted capsicum, spicy rocket, and roast sweet potato. Be warned however, this cafe is only opened weekdays so don’t add it to your Sydney Sunday brunch list just yet!
