How lucky are we to this wonderful cafe in our local dog friendly park. Go for the bacon and egg roll and awesome coffee or a hearty weekend brunch. I’ve tried all the cafes at Rushcutters and this little gem is the best. Lovely owner operator who knows her customers. Stunning peaceful setting.

All the staff were extremely friendly! It was nice to have a cute little restaurant in the park with a healthy and filling vegan option! The food was fresh and well seasoned! The cappuccino hit the spot too that I had to order a second one. We ate outside on a picnic bench, and they delivered our food to us. It drizzled a little and was a little chilly that one of the staff members came out and offered us blankets! So sweet of them. Definitely will be coming back.

I’m so excited that they now have their own beautiful cafe at Rushcutters Bay Tennis Centre. Best food and service in a stunning location.

Poached eggs, smoked salmon on a crispy potato hash/rosti. Ive had this exact dish over 20 times and it is hands down, the best breakfast I’ve ever had! I held off the review expecting the consistent quality to fall off, but I can confirm consistency remained pretty much perfect (1 time, 1/3 egg yolks was slightly over). That should give you an idea on how good the consistency is! Scrambled egg speciality goes hard as well! Huge fan! Terrific staff, and dining experience.

Lovely welcoming cafe, dog friendly, they have great coffee and often have live musician when I have been there. The staff are lovely. Great to grab brunch or lunch before or after a walk along the bay.

Cute venue with great views, not just for tennis players. Great atmosphere for breakfast and lunch, directly in Rushcutters Bay. I had the scrambled eggs and great coffee! Staff was friendly and attentive.
