a brewer's tale café

cute cafe with verynicehipster deco andnicehealthy 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. overallniceplace, i would come back.

local coffee shop, staffs are friendly.
talking about coffee drip equipment and they ask me to try cold brew.
they cold brew was intended, stronger than long black caffeine content for sure.
it’s kinda a perfect drink for summer time.
and also i have my usual piccolo, medium dark roast coffee bean,nicecreama and smooth finished.

located off the busy victoria road, this coffee shop is verynicewith some very friendly staff, we went there for breakfast and food was good and tasty, and good coffee and matcha latte!

this is anicecafe tucked away off the main streets of darlinghurst that has anicevariety 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.

very cute little instagram friendly cafe. everything looks great, intimate and decor is very cute. the staff were lovely. the food was presented amazingly, unfortunately just a situation of looks better than it tastes. paid $19 for the above, the “trio” for $15 added on roast tomatoes. wasniceenough but just lacked a bit in overall flavour. the eggs tasted very watery and not like eggs at all! was a shame because had such high hopes. my friend order the french toast and that was definitely a hit for her!! 😊

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 wasniceand 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 aniceend taste. otherwise, a beautiful cafe that deserves a second visit.

okay service with good food and coffee. the coconut cold drip was reallyniceand sweet. the matcha latte however was very disappointing. the matcha powder wasn’t mixed in correctly so clumps of bitter matcha formed making it very hard to finish. the food on the other hand was delicious! the bricher muesli was refreshing and super fulfilling topped with one slice of poach pear...the fritters were also good, both fluffy and very fulfilling.

nice, rustic ambience, and good variety of menu options. the bircher muesli i had was reallyniceand had the perfect sludgy consistency. massive serving too! the morning muesli with panna cotta however was wayyy to dry, and needed to have more milk/yogurt and the muesli was uncooked, it should have been toasted if it wasnt soaked. overall i say this is a pretty mediocre place, not bad, but not amazing.

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 wasnicebut 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 werenicebut 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 anicecafe and 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 andniceflavour 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)

we really love a brewer’s tale! couldn’t fault our meals - the chicken salad had the perfect ingredients and the orange slices were anicesurprise and went really well with the dish. the balsamic dressing was refreshing was anicetouch. we also had the ricotta stuffed mushroom which was delicious, not to mention looked so pretty! the dish was light yet so satisfying and my egg was poached perfectly (woo!) definitely a 5/5 experience, thanks!

we had aniceexperience today at this cafe. the waitress was very kind and the place had anicerelaxed 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 this cafe to my friends and family and we will be back:)

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

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.nicecoffee 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 veryniceand 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!
