Apart from fashion, there’s another big F word that Chapel Street is renowned for; and that’s food, glorious food.

The area is a smorgasbord of culinary delights, bound to whet the appetite of any gourmand. It’s not all cafés and coffee houses (though we sure know how to deal caffeine the best of them).

Visit retailers dedicated to specialising in their sole passion; from olive oil, mushrooms or potatoes to French pastries or even just desserts. Advocates of an organic diet are well catered to within the precinct as are locavores, with a range of fresh produce on offer that hasn’t travelled too far from its origins.

When it comes to needing a bite to eat on the run there is a United Nations of local eateries to discover here. Indian, Greek, Italian, Japanese…the hungry will be satiated by their new favourite joint in which to chow down on a great bowl of ramen or a slice of cheesy capricciosa.

For more of an occasion, there are spoils of restaurants where visitors can book a table; everything from casual diners to fine dining establishments worthy of popping a few champagne corks. Hungry yet?
