Crane Cove Park Playground

A compact playground beside a lawn, picnic area and trellis, good for a quick break in the middle of a bigger outing.

One gallery of lettering and posters you can walk into during open hours; the rest of the collection is appointment only.

Dumplings made fresh where you can watch, plus crispy gyoza and hand-cut noodles.

A small, quirky museum built around artificial intelligence and its risks. More thought provoking than hands on for younger kids.

A coffee bar in a converted stable, with its own door around the corner from the pizzeria of the same name.

A compact modern playground sized for toddlers and preschoolers, built for open-ended climbing, with seating and public art around it.
