The recent renovations have made my favourite weekend breakfast place even better. The location is perfect; right on Crown St but in a courtyard away from the traffic, with plenty of plants and shade, and heaters for those cold days. The staff are awesome: very friendly and efficient. The food has always been excellent and the recent tweaks to the menu have made it even better. There are lots of places around here for a weekend breakfast, and I've tried most of them. For the best mix of food, service and atmosphere, this is simply the best.

Service was quick and polite, tea came out in good time followed by the food shortly after, the manager even gave me Xtra water and teabag which was a nice gesture.
Impressive work fellas 😁 thankyou very much!

Pretty cool space to stop by for a coffee, which, by the way, was very good. However, when it comes to service... My husband, trying to give a shot at something new, asked for the vegan cheese, but not the cashier or the manager had an idea what this was made of...and did not show willingness to at least go and find info. If you have 8 options for sweets, it would be a good policy service to memorise some characteristics of your own menu... It's not a great deal. Later another person approached us to let us know about the vegan cheese. Maybe we'll try it next time. Cheers.

Paid $8 for iced matcha latte only to have a glass of almond milk & ice. I don’t taste matcha at all. So disappointing

It's a lovely cafe on Crown Street. They have had the same owners for many years. You feel welcome. Great terrasse. The food is good; you will find all the classics of Sydney’s breakfast. Their fruit loaves are excellent (I took one as a takeaway today). The fruit loaf is regularly baked, fresh, moist, and filled with berries. I don’t think you can find a better one somewhere else. You can hear I am a big fan; it is addictive. 🤩

If you don’t feel like lunch or brunch, just come here, sit under the sun on the terrasse with your flat white and a fruit loaf, la vie est belle.

Lovely (and unexpected) find in the burbs of Revesby Heights. Service here is very attentive, and the food and coffee was delicious (and beautifully presented).

This is a little gem in a quiet suburban area. Very nice and friendly owner, and the food was fresh and tasty. No wonder it has really high rating. It’s only that indoor space is a bit small but overall a great cafe.

I ordered a ham and cheese turkish bread toasted sand-witch today and they got this order wrong twice in a row. After the first time they had me pay an extra $2 adding the total to $10. They then gave me a different sand witch to what i asked for again even after the service girl came around the front to have me point to the sand witch I wanted. I made sure to be very very clear that I wanted ham and cheese but received a completely different sand-witch that I did not even like and therefore wasted my time and money.

Really not sure who this barista thinks he is massive EGO I ordered 2 chai lattes and had to go back twice and even then it was ruined after waiting almost 20 minutes. When I told him that the chai tasted literally like water he just looked at me took them I had to wait another 10 minutes before he comes out and still the chai tasted exactly how it did before i had asked to get me another
the vibes is so chill, I love it!! I got chai latte, and it's tasty too :))

Got here based on their high scores on Google reviews,I really don’t understand how they got it.

They serve Little Marionette beans, not really my favorite but today my partner and I both found the coffee had an unpleasant taste. The croissant was completely stale with no taste so we left half of it uneaten.

We got here just after 2pm, they must be getting ready to close as there was no other customers here but Google listed their closing time as 4pm, that’s why we come. The guy who took our order was not particularly welcoming.

There were two big outdoor tables beside the footpath, it would be nice on a nice day but today was a bit chilly so we dedicated to sit inside. indoor seats are at the back, not a very comfortable space and a little dark, it has a funny smell and a very messy corner with things piling up.

Really enjoyed the place. Didn't plan on going there, was in the area with my parents, staff very nice, service very quick, good very nice. My mum loved the blue bottles, and the lady gave her one..... now she won't stop talking about it.

Great coffee, yummy scones & muffins😋
Staff are so welcoming and friendly !!👏👏
Nice enough breakfast with a good range of choices. Unfortunately, even though the food came out quickly after ordering, it was quite cool. The other thing which grates a bit was the prices for "extras" $6 for bacon, $2 to have eggs scrambled instead of fried.

On the plus side, staff were fantastic.

The scrambled eggs on sourdough is excellent. The sourdough is warm, soft and fresh! The scrambled eggs are fluffy and filling. We’ll done!

PS The coffee is good too 👍🏻

A great cafe hidden in suburbs with friendly staff and service. Dishes are vibrant, fresh and delicious, with generous servings all round. I’ve been here a few times and would visit again.
Kitchen is a little slow during peak periods so patience would be appreciated

The tuna melt appeared disgusting ($10.90). I didn’t dare eat it. Soggy bread, one slice, tuna and cheese with onion haphazardly slopped on and soaking through the takeaway paper. I’d take it back for a refund, however it’s inconvenient and not worth the trouble. Sad as this cafe has been alright in the past. Perhaps a one off bad order for the cafe (I hope).

Great laid back friendly atmosphere at this well established cafe. Situated close to the ocean at Nobby Beach with indoor & outdoor seating & great food in a rustic setting. Coffee is also a winner, smooth & rich. We ordered the Navajo breakfast & burrito bowl. Both were healthy with tasty fresh produce.

The cafe is in a pleasant, shady courtyard and the food was pretty good. It was busy though and the kitchen struggled to keep up. It took about 45-50 minutes for our lunch to arrive. Weirdly a coffee and a coke took about the same time. Staff also weren't managing demand.

Recently turned up for lunch. Service was prompt and the food arrived very quickly. The lady who delivered the food was a delight; bright and cheery and funny.
My partner had the Byron Bay Halloumi, Fresh Garden Leaves, Spiced Chickpeas, Roast Sweet Potato,Cherry Tomatoes, Cucumber, Half Avocado, Toasted Seed Dukkah,
Creamy Herb & Paprika Dressing...very nice. I had the Vegan Huevos Rancheros, Corn Tortilla, Breaky Beans, Avo Salsa, Jalapeno, Chipotle Mayo, Fresh Greens & Spiced Tofu Scramble...absolutely fantastic.
Coffee and tea were nice and hot. My latte with beetroot and cocoa was quite drinkable but essentially flavourless. Oh well, at least I tried something different.
Menu was varied and should suit most people.
My usual gripe about background music remains. Terrible choice, very poor quality, way too loud. Oh well. I still rated the place
Well worth a visit.
In response to the owners reply, thanks for the heads up regarding music...will know for next time...thank you

Solid spot on Crown street for a laidback lunch with drinks. Lots of seats and plenty of plants to make it feel just far enough away from the noise of the city. Menu is a little typical for brunch—doesn’t feel like it has that unique thing that you HAVE to come here for. If you’re looking for a reliable spot, this does the job. Plus! Dog friendly, so that’s always a plus. Our dog loved sniffing all the plants.

The Okonomiyaki Benedict was absolutely amazing, why don't we see this offered everywhere? The coffee was a pleasant mild roast, so try something lighter on the milk if you're normally a latte drinker to really enjoy it.

Really great food!

I had the teriyaki salmon rice bowl and it was AMAZING. 10/10 I will be coming back. It came with a miso soup and it was delicious.

I also had a lovely large cappuccino with oat milk and it was lovely.
Nice little cafe on the corner in Revesby Heights. Good selection of tasty cafe meals on offer. Only problem is that it’s not the best location tucked under a block of residential or commercial units and difficult to find parking around the area. Worth trying out for a nice lunch or brunch.

Had the chicken burger with sweet potato chips. Nice meal. The coffee was good too. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The other meal we had was the salmon with miso and honey sauce which was too sweet for us and the flavour overpowered the salmon.

The best breakfast in Sydney. Big call, but have been coming here for past couple of years and never got a bad one.

I do the big breakfast myself. Try it out.

Great little place at the front of the Winery, behind the gates entry.

Sadly I was unable to place an order with pineapple included. You can't add pineapple to a breakfast order because the pineapple isn't available till lunchtime.

Preciously the food here has been delicious. Today I'm unable to say.
A well known local cafe located on Centaur St, mum is a regular here so she took us for lunch as a fam. Plenty of street parking nearby available. On the end of a small strip of shops.

💥 The Heights still looks new and renovated, part of The Edge complex which is a newer build. Lot of timber and greenery to match the leafy suburb of Revesby Heights.

💁🏼‍♀️ Such a nice vibe in here, all of the staff are so friendly while pumping out coffees.

💥 Fam bam had burgers and said they were delicious. I had the salmon bowl: Pan fried salmon fillet, middle eastern fattoush salad with pomegranate dressing & beetroot hummus super steep at $28 with a side of fries $8.50 which were delicious

✨ Good brekkie option in the area. Wasn’t to try their coffee too so would go back for brekkie.
Wonderful experience. Not over priced, the staff are friendly as. Flat white was spot on. The smashed avo was perfect.
A colleague and I went in Sunday morning for the first time. We loved the place so much went back Monday and and the cook remembered our order from the day before. Not many places have that kind of experience. Such friendly people. This will be my go to for my morning coffee and smashed avo while visiting SYD.

I went there for a Sunday brunch with my girlies and instantly loved the ambience. It was fully packed but the service was swift and hospitality of the staff were impressive. Coffee was average but the Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict was a hit. The French toast looked amazing but taste was average.

This was a lovely find during a short stay at Nobby’s Beach.

It’s a perfect place for an early morning coffee on your morning walk.

We also dropped back for breakfast on a weekday morning.

There’s a innovative menu to suit all tastes and cafe promotes itself as a health cafe.

Certainly, there are many choices with healthy ingredients .

Ordering is via a tablet which is an easy process.

Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Menu says can’t change things so can’t even order something with eggs and change them to something else.

Avocado toast is $10 - add tomato for $4… yet on the menu there is “smashy avocados” for $16… and it comes with so much more stuff… but not allowed to swap eggs and stuff for vegan stuff like vegetables :/

Cost of coffee ($7-$8), $1 more expensive and not as tasty as other nearby coffees.

Overall though it is good and fast. :)
A great cafe with friendly staff. My wife and I have been here a few times now. We meet up with a friend at this location. We normally book a table with ease. There is plenty of parking on the nearby streets.
It was busy the last time we were here. We got our orders taken within five minutes and our orders came out quickly.
Nice food and great coffee.

Horrible service, The lady behind the counter told me it wouldnt be long. I waited 40 minutes and asked her how much longer it would be. She then became increasingly ruder telling other customers who came in AFTER me she was happy to have patient customers. I finally got my drink to which she proceeded to slide across the counter at me, almost sending it over the edge and spilling coffee everywhere. Never going here again. Save your money. In the end all i got was hot milk, no coffee

Was a fantastic cafe until the past 2 weeks. Coffee has been burnt or watery, never consistent. Such a shame as it was fantastic when Josh was there. There was one fantastic barista on Easter Saturday that made a good coffee but everyone else could use some more training.

Stopped in here for a quick coffee before an appointment and was impressed with the service and coffee.

Very friendly staff who greeted us on arrival and were super helpful with our order.

The coffee was delicious! Correct temperature, taste and strength!!

I would love to come back and try some of their breakfast options as everything looked nice on the menu and the reviews seem positive.

Great location - plenty of parking, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Menai Marketplace with a nice open courtyard.

Nice food options - breakfast, brunch and lunch time food. My favourite is the turkey, cranberry and brie toasted sandwich AND the smashed avo (sourdough, poached eggs, bruschetta etc). Still haven't made my way to the smoothies yet!

Really cool to see young people running the cafe - taking orders, bringing out food, talking to customers.

100% of Cafe Y's profits go back to supporting Shire young people!! A++++

The first time I was walking to my new job, I noticed this corner cafe nearby so stopped for a quick bite, and I enjoyed their food immensely. I pass many cafes on the morning walk to the office, but I just continue eating at this place because the food and service is consistently perfect and I enjoy going there. When I'm eating, I hear many other people coming and going, and everyone seems to also enjoy coming to this cafe.
