I lived in Newtown for 8 year and some of what you said is true. The true Newtown local pub though is the Carlisle Castle which is two blocks behind The Courthouse. Places like The Marlborough and The Newtown Hotel are not pubs for locals, you mainly get outsiders and troublemakers in there. I used to train at Newtown Gym. Back many decades ago it was a department store, that whole block was. I forget the name of it but it's similar to what Myer and David Jones are now.
Oh we agree! Def the Marly and Newtown hotel are not local places, but for those coming from outside the inner west, they will definitely enjoy themselves there!
A bit disappointed.. the biggest vegan community, with 100% vegan restaurants that include vegan pizzeria, thai, japanese, vietnamese, mexican, queseria, indian, patisserie etc etc and it is only said one line about it. And recommending/showing the non-vegan ones..
You should have shown the night life on weekends, the people in the streets instead of just promoting shops, which it's fine, but makes the video boring for those who might see it overseas while thinking about coming to Australia You show pubs and restaurants but without any human life in it !!

Loved the video tour!!! Newtown is one of my favourite neighbourhoods in Sydney.
John Cosentino thanks! Ours too :)
Definitely a lot of changes in Newtown since I stayed there 20 odd year ago lol is the billabong hostel still there just off king st ? ✌️
Lovitt - thanks for dropping in!
one of our favorite dining spots in all f Sydney! :)
I hope the coronavirus pandemic won't affect the little shops and restaurants in Newtown too much, they're what make this place interesting
hopefully this craziness will be over soon! in the mean time we gotta keep supporting our local businesses as much as we can. :)
T2 and the pie shop are gone :(
Graffiti art has been there in Newtown over 30 years!!! 😉
Used to be real hipsters in Newtown, now its yuppies LARPing as hipsters :D
Newtown is pure cringe...both then and now. It's not a suburb , it's a psych hospital.
I’m glad to say I live here
Oooh cool!
i live in Harold Park - Newie pubs are great
Maybe i should stay in Newtown later
I am coming to Sydney next year
👏👏👏

Try shaking your camera a little less when filming
