a brewer's tale café

had a great weekend with nice food here! and the staff service was good too. also they have a big portion for my meal. definitely will back again to this place

good food, good ambience. didn’t try their coffee tho.
the salmon was in room temp, which i kinda doubt the safety of em. hashbrown was good. fried capers was genius idea!
the ricotta stuffed mushroom was good, except the toast were a bit chewy and hard to cut.
will i come back here? umm.. maybe.. but not in a while.

really lovely and attentive staff. i also really appreciated the number of delicious options on the menu. its more than just avo on toast! i ordered the black sesame porridge which was really really tasty. nice coffee too!

i don’t know where to start to explain you how much i like this café. i am working so close to this shop that i had several opportunity to try their dishes and i always enjoyed them.

to start, the shop is located in darlinghurst near st vincent hospital, quite easy to come there with bus or train not very far. the café has not a lot of tables inside (6 maybe) but has also 6 outside (with heaters and blankets for winter). the service has always been very well done and the people there are very nice and warming so perfect for a brunch on a weekend or just a coffee before work.

they have a breakfast and a lunch menu with quite a lot of options. i tried the slow cooked pork with japanese happa sauce, kale and quinoa and the salmon filet, asparagus, mashed potato, capers served with lemon butter sauce. both meals were very well cooked with a lot of aroma and good combination of seasonal products.

and for my birthday i wanted to go back to this café to try their brioche french toast (it is not because i am french but i love french toast and in sydney i have to admit that people are cooking it very wel and add a lot of toppings which make them even better. this one was served with fresh fruits, ricotta, coconut chips and a mango panna cota (to die for) and some maple syrup. of course it is very sweet but as you would expect for a french toast. but the fresh fruits help to balance the sweetness.

i also tried their chai latte and it was pretty good too. and they serve the tea with a small sand timer for the right infusion time. i found this so cute!

so guys give a try to this cafe you will not be disappointed!

small cosy location, seemed like locals come by for a coffee and a good read.
visited with a small group, each ordering a drink and a meal each. everyone's drinks came out all about the same time along with the food which was fantastic. food was delicious and couldn't be faulted.

don't be fooled
while the menu and website are very appealing. only order if you enjoy receiving your luke warm coffee one per table at a time. the matcha pancakes are no signature dish rather a dense and unpleasant experience! same for the french toast. the price tag that follows this unpleasant experience is also enough to send you round the corner for a second breakfast to start your day right.

very disappointing visit to a brewer's tale café. very cold in the cafe accompanied by cold coffees. the coffees and the food came out in drips and drabs. there was twenty minutes between the first and last meal coming out. three of us ordered the french toast which was soggy and didn't taste very nice. one of us had the matcha hot cakes which is supposed to be their signature dish but they were dry and inedible. we still had a to pay despite passing our feedback on to the manager.

cold coffee followed by "the signature macha pancakes" aka the worst thing i have put in my mouth. sticky dense green pancakes with a shot of sickly green goop on the side. the fruit salad that accompanied was all that was edible. after raising our disappointment we were still expected to pay!

semi vintage cafe, good seating & great ambience for chatting, foods were well presented however they under seasoned, we ordered their signature pork belly & grilled salmon, coffee was slightly bitter, overall good to try ! they famous for matcha hotcake ! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

matcha pancakes topped with fairy floss 🍵🥞🌸
it is their signature dish but to be honest, my friend and i thought it wasn't that great .. the pancakes were kinda dry and the poached pear that came with it, had a weird taste to it similar to an off alcohol or something. the fruits were a good addition to the dish and the matcha chocolates were a nice touch.

we actually preferred the mains more and they were decent sized to fill us up. i had the pea and zucchini fritters and they were yum. even my friend who doesn't normally like fritters said it was good. i recommend coming here for the mains but not recommended for their signature matcha pancakes. "le monde" does good matcha pancakes though for anyone on the hunt for it.

great cafe in darlinghurst! the interior is fun and quirky with lots of timber, grass and hanging lights. the staff are friendly and very quick to make sure you have everything you need. we had the ricotta mushroom and smashed avocado. both meals were hearty and delicious! would most definitely return.

🍴 almond milk soaked bircher muesli with seasonal fruits and poached pear 🍴

💙 fresh fruit added great zing of flavour and texture to these oats 💙

🔍 not a huge fan of the bircher. had to try it first but before formulating my opinion 🔍

went to brewer's tale cafe when it opened recently last year. visited the place with my foodie troops and we ordered pretty much almost everything on the menu!. in my opinion, they have a great range of dishes but some got they highs and lows for us :). morning muesli - natural yoghurt, fresh seasonal fruit, coconut slices, chia seeds and flaked almonds.

very friendly service, one of the best coffee in sydney and great range of brunch served here. what else you ask for! dont forget to make a booking for weekend visit tho.

it was nice to have a break from the rain and have some sun today so we decided to go out for brunch.

i didn't know about this cafe until i came across an entertainment voucher and i'm glad we made a booking as there were a few people waiting and i definitely didn't want to sit outside.

cute decor inside and friendly staff. we tried their signature matcha latte which was strong so we needed sugar to sweeten it up a bit. i tried their purple sweet potato which i preferred and this was a nice purple drink for the cool weather.

in terms of food i went for their zucchini and pea fritter which looked disappointing as they were two tiny pancakes than fritters but taste was not bad. my husband went for the breakfast plank which is their version of big breakfast but overall he found it too salty. my son loved his scrambled eggs and toast and we definitely wouldn't mind coming back to try their lunch menu items.
