The best hangover cures in Sydney

If you haven’t had your recommended clam juice intake this week, all four Bills outposts (Surry Hills, Bondi Beach, Darlinghurst and Double Bay) can sort you out with their mighty fine take on a Caesar – intensely flavoured with lime, coriander and Korean chilli. This bad boy pretty much begs to be partnered up with a plate of those impossibly fluffy scrambled eggs and a side of avocado salsa. 

Baked eggs, or chakchouka, is the ultimate Middle Eastern hangover cure. Crisp fried chorizo, meaty white beans and chickpeas, and eggs cracked into pools of rich tomato sauce – this hearty, stick-to-your-ribs brunch staple will have you up and running in no time.

While the idea of being anywhere near a bar might strike fear into your slightly fragile mind – crisp, oily, salty fried pickles are well worth venturing outdoors for. Pickles are high in sodium, which gets depleted during a boozing session, and a shot of vinegar known lore for dusting off after a big night. A side of maple aioli is the perfect touch of sweetness to bolster you back into shape.

A hangover is a fickle beast. Sometimes it demands pizza, other times it requires something a little more sanctimonious. Enter, a great, big salad. If the name doesn’t quite give it away, Daily Greens is a health-forward, wholefood-focused fast-casual eatery that offers you the chance to get your daily dose of two-and-five from the early morning to the early evening, seven days a week. Fresh food, zero waste and traceability are what they’re all about here, so expect that to come through loud and clear whether you’re here for avo on Sonoma sourdough with roasted nori and sesame seeds and a cold-pressed juice in the AM, or a DIY bowl with all the GF, DF, V and VG bells and whistles in the PM.

Yum cha is the great equalizer in Sydney. Cast your eye around the cavernous dining room at Marigold and you're just as likely to see a family tucking in to a steamer of dumplings as you are to see a worse-for-wear party-goer ordering their second bottle of coke with their head in their hands. It's a safe space for all and a hit of salt, a crisp spring roll and a fluffy pork bun is guarenteed to leave anyone feeling better.

One Another in Newtown has found its way into our hearts from day one and their innovative menu never fails to impress. There's something very comforting about being in a clean minimalist space while your head is a mess and the only thing that can make that better is a serving of smashed avocado on toast. The One Another avo toast is piled high with fresh green apple and mint with a smattering of black nigella seeds for a citrus hit.
