This is more showroom than cafe, with coffee from one of Sydney's most experienced baristas.

For house-roasted coffee and uncomplicated food.

A menu that doesn’t sacrifice flavour to achieve its nourishing tag, and a drinks list that’s all about fermentation.

Whether you’re stopping in for that iconic lasagnette bolognaise or just a snack, Frat Paz nails it every time. Its groundbreaking wine list introduced the city to many minimal-intervention styles we're now obsessed with.

Don’t be fooled by this cafe’s modest appearance – it can do plenty in its tiny kitchen.

Great coffee and a Thai-influenced menu.

An even smaller version of Redfern's favourite hole-in-the-wall.

Delicious, uncomplicated food all day.

Linger at a table below leafy trees over a continental plate loaded with cold-cuts, house-made pickles, olives and baguette, or a serving of fried eggs with black pudding and mortadella.
