Darwin City Dining

Located on a coastline of abundant fishing grounds, it's hardly surprising to find Darwin, Australia hosting an event such as the Darwin Seafood Festival. Held on the harbour at Fisherman's Wharf, in a season when the Darwin weather is perfect, the festival features fabulous dining and cooking demonstrations. You can partake of succulent, fresh local seafood with everything from oysters to crocodile, reef fish, pearl meat, prawns, mud crab and barramundi.

Dining out in Darwin wouldn't be complete without a visit to the extraordinary host of food stalls at the Mindil Beach Markets, featuring cuisine from the Philippines, India, Cambodia, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand and Yugoslavian and Italian cuisine. And they haven't forgotten the spit roasts, fish and chips and hamburgers.

Darwin restaurants are all international in some way. With a host of 75 varying nationalities, each bringing their own recipes and flavours, the standard and variety of restaurants, cafés and eateries is unmatched. Visitors to Darwin and locals will never be left wondering where to go for dinner.

Grab a map of Darwin as a matter of priority. Not only will it make it easier to visit all the great locations and venues around Darwin Northern Territory, but it will certainly guide you to the best pubs, Asian restaurants and fine dining. Darwin enjoys a number of superior restaurants including Char Restaurant @ Admiralty House, located in the Old Admiralty House building.

Or why not dine on some of the best Northern Territory seafood, while overlooking the harbour, at Crustaceans on the Wharf.
