a brewer's tale café

if i live around this suburb, i will definitely be there at least once a week. i have been there a couple of times and the food is amazing as always, the staff are welcoming, and their prices is not as steep as other cafes. i love it that they do earl grey lattes here (how good is that?!) and not just regular lattes. i would normally have thesalmonrush, but the ricotta stuffed mushroom is soooo good as well!

this cafe served 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.
grilledsalmondon’t have any sauce to eat with as well and really plain.

great place to have a quote brunch on a weekend. very modern menu and well balanced food. i loved hash browns in mysalmonrush dish! didn’t feel any fat or oil in it at all as it happens often in other places. haven’t tried their coffee, but i’m sure it would be good as well.
will definitely come back xx

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

solid 3.75/5.

these guys got the balance between value for money, portion size and quality down pat. if i have to sum up our experience in a sentence.

green benny, muffin spinach poached eggs tomato kale w mayo.
salmon rush, smokedsalmoncapers poached eggs spinach feta sprout and hash brown.
green bowl, kale quinoa haloumi poached eggs spinach asparagus avo mushrooms chia seeds pumpkin seeds pine nuts.

our drinks came scalding hot as requested. note the generous portion sizes too n they dont skimp on quality either. what more can one ask for?

such a wonderful brunch & coffee! the food and helpful staff made my rainy winter morning. i had thesalmonrush (smoked salmon, hush browns, poached eggs and greens) & large skinny latte - absolutely to die for! i haven’t had so muchsalmon on my plate for a long time! super fresh & delicious.. highly recommended!

will we back 100%

good food, good ambience. didn’t try their coffee tho.
thesalmonwas 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.

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 thesalmonfilet, 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!

as a foodie it can be difficult to eat healthy. so recently i'd try making kale salads and i haven't been able to go back since. so today when i saw the 'superfood salad' with kale on the menu i was a bit reluctant to say the least, but since i'd never tried cafe kale i gave it a go and for once i don't regret eating kale. the cafe's kale massaged with olive oil and lemon caper's dressing undercuts the bitterness of the kale and replaces it with an explosion of flavour and crunch. the perfect mixture fats from the pumpkin seeds andsalmoncreate an extra punch and to top it off the boiled egg and sprinkle of quinoa help to balance out the flavours. although one can say it is slightly simplified when it comes to flavouring it is a definitely a great go to every day salad. 4.5/5

as soon as i walked in, i was in love with the decor of the cafe. all the dishes we ordered were so pretty and there's also a focus on healthy ingredients. both the pork belly and grilledsalmoncame with sides of beautiful vegetables. we finished off with the matcha pancakes and it was gorgeous! served with a poached pear and fresh fruit, the pancakes themselves were quite strong in matcha flavour which i really enjoyed. great spot!

great food...lovely customer service. i am lucky i like earthing on the menu but try the matcha hotcake it's just the best:) also highly recommend zucchini green pea fritters + smokesalmon;)

this stylish, funky cafe is a wonderful spot for breakfast and lunch . the food is absolutely delicious and there is an amazing choice on the menu. highly recommend the smashed avo, it bursts with flavour. the muesli is a fresh summers dish and thesalmonrush is a good substitute if you do not feel like bread as it is served on hash browns. the coffee is wonderful and the service is outstanding. all in all a wonderful experience!!!

breakyay! all four breakfast options were fresh, tasty and well balanced. i did fall in love with their zucchini and green pea fritters with smoked salmon😍✨💖 it was literally the best fritters i've ever had, perfectly cooked, not dry, soft and crisp on the outside it was deliciousness in a plate! and i will return a million times over for them fritters & all day breakfast ya'll.

i've been wanting to go to this cafe for a while - the beautiful pictures on instagram have been calling me. the cafe is adorable. it had bench seats, tables and very comfortable cushions. it is beautifully styled with old suitcases, pretty cushions, pot plants, bird cages with chandeliers.
the menu is super cute - like a photo book. the drinks menu is large with milkshakes (including cookies and cream and coconuts caramel), iced drinks, special lattes, cold drip (single origin), acai smoothies, fresh juices, super food smoothies, organic tea and iced tea. i got the 'super c' which is orange, pineapple and apple'. it was nice and fresh and came out super quick.
for the breakfast options there's so many nice sounding options like matcha hot cakes, brioche french toast or the amazing looking black sesame porridge. there's also big meals like smashed avo, eggs benedict, zucchini and green pts fritters, ricotta stuffed field mushrooms and a breakfast plank. i got the green breakfast bowl which is organic quinoa, male, haloumi, poached eggs, baby spinach, asparagus, avocado, mushrooms, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, pesto and lemon. what a healthy amazing meal! i'd love to come back sometime for some more breakfast choices. i love that they also sell breakfast all day.
lunch options are served from 11:30 and there are pastas, sandwiches, pulled pork, beef burgers, grilledsalmonand a vegetable stack. i also got a green tea matcha latte - the latte art wasn't as i had hoped but the flavour was on par. the staff were absolutely divine. super friendly and great service.

the food is great! poached eggs were gooey and perfectly done! highly recommend thesalmonrush, the fritters are really good too! i'm not really a coffee drinker so i didn't order coffee but my friend did and said their coffee is a 10/10 :)
