a brewer's tale café

cutecafewith very nice hipster deco and nice healthy hipster vibe. service is very casual and blah. coffee was strong and smooth. just how i like it. my breakfast was lovely with lots of fresh and healthy ingredients and a very generous large portion plate. mushroom and ricotta was great. dish maybe just needed more seasoning or something to give it a kick as was a tad bland. quinoa and kale salad could have used more lemon for example. overall nice place, i would come back.

picture perfect, pretty food - almost too delicate to eat. this fairytale-inspired café offers an array of deliciously nutritious, quirky & appealing dishes. that’s not to say their drinks menu should be overlooked. i recommend accompanying your brilliantly colourful meal with either a sweet potato or taro latte to guarantee an overall satisfying experience.

a quaintcafeoffering a quiet and peaceful brunch experience. it’s a little hot and sunny sitting outdoors, with not many seating options inside. food is nicely presented and the desserts are a must try!

thiscafeserved typical kind of brunch and looks so pretty. try the poke bowl, mushroom on toast, matcha pancake, grilled salmon.
poke bowl don’t have sauce so it’s bit dry and don’t have flavors.
mushroom amazing, perfect cook!
matcha pancake, the sauce is so watery and doesn’t taste matcha at all. quiet disappointed.
grilled salmon don’t have any sauce to eat with as well and really plain.

this is a nicecafetucked away off the main streets of darlinghurst that has a nice variety of breakfast and lunch options. the zucchini fritters were alright - was a bit bland but it was very nicely presented. the matcha pancakes was definitely the highlight. the whole dish had strong matcha flavours and wasn’t overly sweet. the earl grey latte was way too sweet but the other speciality lattes were fine and very strong flavours.

zucchini & corn fritters : 😁 great
bircher muesli : 😍 amazing
coconut cold drip : 😍 amazing
matcha latte : 😊 good

when i looked at the menu, i was so torn. i wanted to order everything! from sweet to savoury, i believe there’s something for everyone at the brewer’s tale. the overnight bircher muesli was very refreshing and fulfilling. the corn fritters were great and paired well with the asparagus and beetroot hummus. the coconut cold drip had a very subtle coconut taste that didn’t overpower the coffee but nor did it really stand out. the matcha latte was nice and creamy but unfortunately the matcha didn’t blend well with the milk and there were lots of matcha powder sediments at the bottom of the cup which did not have a nice end taste. otherwise, a beautifulcafethat deserves a second visit.

like every picture suggest this place is about as insta-worthy as it gets. the playing and all the colours they use are absolutely gorgeous and thankfully the flavours aren't too bad either.

starting with the drinks the caramel milkshake was stock standard and exactly what you expect so not much to speak about there. the taro latte was nice but a little too subtle on the flavours for me and 90% of what i could taste was just milk which was a shame.

the food itself was alright. with the zucchini dish, the fritters were delicious and easily the best thing on the plate but everything else was just a little bland and didn't add too much to the dish.

the matcha pancakes were nice but the matcha flavour was never too apparent with the sweetness of everything else taking the lead instead. not saying everything was too sweet just that the matcha wasn't quite there for me.

overall, brewer's tale is a nicecafeand a decent brunch spot but with flavours that are a bit too mild and one note for me.

a friendly and pretty café located in the heart of darlinghurst called a brewer’s tale café. it’s so pretty and nice flavour of hot purple sweet potato latte (8/10).

salmon rush ($17.5) - smoked salmon, capers, poached eggs, baby spinach, feta cheese, sprout and hash browns. the perfect one would be that crunchy hash brown with balance seasoning (7 /10)

brioche french toast ($18.5) with fresh fruits, ricotta cheese, coconut chips, mango panna cotta and 100% pure maple syrup. the unique point will be the panna cotta on top (rather than cream or ice cream like other restaurant do). taste yummy but not that amazing (8/10)

i ordered salmon rush and hot mocha. the coffee was lovely. thecafewas lovely. but we were lucky because we went there for a thursday lunch, so not too many people.

a bit disappointed here. thiscafeis a cosy and cute place on burton street, right next to darlo's green park. from outside, looks definitely promising. my berry smoothie was awesome and we were pumped up for what was coming next. i had the green bowl, it was okay-ish and plain. my partner's got poached eggs that happened to be boiled. not great.

we ordered matcha latte, corn cake and pancakes. the latte is not as sweet as whatcafeshops can offer, and the taste is very authentic. their matcha pancakes was really really good- both taste and the presentation. suitable for group of people or just two of you wanted a relaxing and cozy afternoon.

we had a nice experience today at this cafe. the waitress was very kind and the place had a nice relaxed vibe. we did notice the food was taking a while and eventually were told that the kitchen hadn’t put the order through. we were immediately offered free drinks and an apology. this didn’t bother us at all however and we were so glad that they offered great customer service to a mistake which was on their part. the food was beautifully presented and tasted amazing! even though there was a slight mixup i would highly recommend thiscafeto my friends and family and we will be back:)

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 thiscafeyou will not be disappointed!

very disappointing visit to a brewer's tale café. very cold in thecafeaccompanied 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.

greatcafein 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.
