By day the deli is your perfect lunch location. Perch yourself along the counter to try our selections of cheese, charcuterie, and tinned fish, paired with a recommended drink or two.

On Newtown’s Australia Street, you will see a small, square red light burning. Past the Courthouse, past the Police Station and just beyond the Fire Station. Founded by Elvis Abrahanowicz and Joe Valore of Porteno, and Jesse Warkentin and Michael Nicolian (of Bodega and Gardel’s Bar, respectively), our Continental Deli Bar & Bistro is the next institution on this iconic Sydney street.

Our Bar is the home of the Mar-tinny and the Can-hatten, batched and canned onsite. Continental also offers a sophisticated take on a whole host of other classic cocktails, primarily revolving around sherries, vermouths, and house-made liqueurs. Open from morning to night 7 days, it’s a Can-tastic way to spend an afternoon.

By night the Bistro steps it up with its shared-style, Mediterranean-influenced menu. Available from 6 pm, it features ingredients from our deli with great seasonal produce to be enjoyed in a fun and casual dining space. Our selection of wines features back vintages of classic Australian varietals and a complimentary worldly selection.
