About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Romantic
Charming

Gavroche Chippendale is your little corner of Paris in the heart of Sydney. It brings not only classic French cuisine to Sydney, but also an accoutrement from the culinary epicentre of the country – like an imposing oakwood entrance from Lyon’s venerable Brasserie Georges, brass-railed banquette seating, oversized carved wooden bar and hand-painted tiled walls for an authentic Parisian experience.

Taste your way through our classic Parisian menu by French-born Chef Batiste Gouraud and his team, from escargots de bourgogne, steak frites and canard confit to the classic crème brûlée. With an array of classic dishes that capture the Parisian spirit, and a wine list with a mix of hand-selected French and Australian wines, you’ve got the buzz of Paris in the heart of Sydney!

Located inside the heritage-listed historic Old Rum Store located on the bustling Kensington Street in Chippendale. In close proximity to Sydney's Central Station and University of Technology.

My fiancé Clement Duliège and I had a truly lovely time at Gavroche Chippendale for his birthday dinner. The atmosphere was perfect for a special occasion, and the food was absolutely delicious. The service was attentive and made the whole evening feel very special. We both highly recommend Gavroche Chippendale for a memorable dining experience!

We began with two classic French starters: the escargots and French onion soup. The escargots came bubbling in garlicky, herbed butter — rich, indulgent, and exactly what you’d hope for. The onion soup was deeply savoury with a hearty broth, crowned with a generous cap of melted cheese and toasted bread. Comforting and nostalgic. For mains, we both went with steak, which arrived cooked as requested (rare) and well-rested. Tender, juicy, and paired beautifully with a side of aligot — that wonderfully stretchy mash of potato and cheese — and a refreshing salad that helped balance the richness of the dish. Sharing both sides gave us the best of both worlds: indulgence and lightness. Dessert was a sweet shared affair: the crème brûlée, with its crisp sugar top and silky custard, and the chocolate mousse, airy yet decadent. Neither overwhelmed; both were simple, classic, and satisfying. There wasn’t a weak point in the meal. Service was warm but unobtrusive, and the ambiance felt like a quiet corner of Paris, perfect for conversation and connection. Final Verdict: Gavroche isn’t trying to reinvent French cuisine — and that’s exactly why it works. It sticks to the classics and does them well. If you’re after an authentic French bistro experience in Sydney, it’s worth booking a table. We’ll definitely be back.

Confused menu information about how many snails. Good food. Someone's birthday, and we told them when booking, but staff didn't give it any mention!

The resturant is beatiful, a very intimate and elegant space, the food was amazing too, we tried the Le Petit Degustation and every plate was full of flavour, the portions were right for a degustation menu, the wine was very good as well. The waiters were very elegant and friendly. Overall a great experience, I recommend it 100%

Lovely restaurant service was amazing, very polite. Food was delicious, apart from a couple of dishes that didn't hit the mark. Snail dish, having had snails at other French restaurants these ones not so good. I wouldn't try again. In the desert menu the Crêpes with orange sauce wasn't that good. Apart from that everything else was amazing, the atmosphere was great, loved it. We are definitely coming back and I would recommend it to anyone who likes French cuisine. Overall 5 star experience.
Gavroche ChippendaleResponded on April 14, 2025

We look forward to welcoming you again soon!
