Wow, buzzing vibe with trendy music playing in the background. Impressive outdoor garden setting. Great choices of brunch and lunch food. We do find it a bit too busy and noisy for regular visits.

Stepping into this place feels like a local cafe in Napa Valley. The food and service were excellent. I tried the hock with a side of scrambled eggs . The ham was just that little bit smokey. Awesome!

Vivian Wong

Awesome place to hang out if you have a family -- good rustic style foods. Just make sure you don't accidentally step on a child or small dog whilst collecting your organic soy latte

Sabine Schmidt

I love all. Not only does it have a good menu but also a whole concept. I recommend that you reserve in time to secure your place and not wait. Of course every dish is exciting and very good coffee .

Sara Radakovic

One of the most unique and entertaining place I have ever seen! So many details around you so you really need to pass several times to notice everything

Sadira Y.

Come here early! Such an Instagram-worthy place with Kevin bacon (their pet pig )! The food display is very instagram-worthy as well . Must try their tea !

Monika

What recommendation could I possibly give? It is far but totally worth visiting, eating and enjoying. It’s so much more than a café and so much more than a garden or restaurant .

Bommy

Outdoor garden seating is beautiful. Great place to walk around and see the farm animals and flower mart. Breakfast sandwich with hash browns is very mayo-y.

Alison

Everything is feels so aftertastey!Love the coffee culture and atmosphere. Its like a cafe hollywood~You can make lots of beauty shoots and videos.

Charles Voon

Great food! If coming for brunch , try the avocado , king crab omelette , and salmon brioche . Great coffee too!

Ciaran Hennessy

Crazy busy...for a good reason. Grab a table and try the excellent coffee , and have a go at the bacon and egg roll ( with a pretzel roll ).

Tracy Loh

Moni Hernanz

The place is amazing! It’s so pretty and it was a perfect plan for a Monday brunch . All the food was very good! Highly recommended! Is Kids friendly too!

K W

Cute cottage-like area with different aspects of dining concepts alll under one area( ranging from a small farm , Potting Shed, pastry carts etc.) it's also kid friendly

Angela Liu

Very good place to chill with friends! They have a cafe , a proper restaurant , a garden area serving burger and wraps and also a florist !

Alec DaCodec

Breakfast in a heavenly setting, surrounded by various food carts and oozing with love ❤️. My favorite: Signature Avocado 🥑 add bacon , baked beans .

Dom Wong

Fantastic outdoor garden area...grab a coffee and pastry and chill out ...would recommend to stay away from the cheeseburger - bun was dry, patty was cold and not juicy notwithstanding busy turnaround

Hendy Ongkodjojo

Grab some fresh Nutella or Strawberry Jam filled Donuts by the counter while you wait for your table. Absolutely worth it.

Salwan Finj

Bloody amazing...love the rose lemonade , breakfast buns and bbq lunch options...they have a baby farm full of animals and lost of fun and interesting nooks and crannies at the grounds!

Jana Liamkina

New favourite place! Food & coffee is amazing. The wait for the cafè is about 30 minutes, but you can explore the markets & stalls while you wait. Loved it.

Jack Smith

If you enjoy it here, then give The Grounds of The City a try, set in a beautiful and elegant 1940's style cafe

Jacques

Best place for wedding reception. the decor & setting is beautiful, the best looking reception ive been to & a dancefloor under fairy lights . a definite consideration for ideas. Can only hold 100 ppl.

Charlotte Van Bree

Amazing place. You'll have to wait a while for a table, definitely on sunny days but it's well worth it and time flies while you're walking around the grounds with a coffee .

Daniel Ng

Larger monthly market on the first weekend of every month. Serves great brunch dishes and tasty drinks from milkshakes to coffee . Get in before lunch and go for a walk in the market !

Mimi

It is absolutely gorgeous on a beautiful sunny day, enjoy a rose lemonade in the courtyard . This cake was delicious, apologies as I've forgetter it's name.

Stephanie Tan

Loved this place instantly! Rustic environment, awesome coffee . Thought me aint impressed by the service. Perfect for chilling out wid small group of frens. I'll b back my next visit to Sydney.

yrummy

Sat next to the kitchen after a short 15min wait for a table. Everything looked gorgeous - burgers especially! Buns and bread all made in their own bakery . Amazing coffee same with chilli mayo fries !!

Lauren Melcher

Perfect place to curl up with a book and a coffee for the afternoon. Don't miss the floral shop in the central alleyway!

Jayne

It’s a really long walk from the train station but it’s worth it. Really enjoyed the garden environment and food.

Snackertarian K

Alanis Kim

Jessi @2feet1world

Delicious brunch and loved this fabulous venue - easy to spend hours (and loads of money here)!

José Augusto

Lot's of options to eat.. It's really nice place.. You can go on a date.. with friends or family.. In all of this you're going to have a good time.

Catherine Goh

Loved this place to bits! Such a pretty place to chill n relax on weekends! Not forgetting the friendly servicd and awesome quality food! Definitely coming back ♥♥

Rose lemonade is fabulous on a hot summers day. Place not as busy as a year ago so not too hard to get a seat on the weekends. If you haven't been yet, go now.

Pete Iannetta

This place is busy! Nice little menu, rustic atmosphere, visit the farm yard to see the animals (that may end up on the menu). Parking is difficult though so if you can avoid driving there, do so

Lipstouched

Beautiful place; very photo worthy. Cakes are pretty to look at. Take a look at the huge pig named Kevin Bacon .

James Norton

Beef burger is brilliant. One of the very best I've had. Expect a line-up and a battle for tables, though.

Mark Shay

Great place, but we went on a very hot day and there is absolutely no air conditioning , so be warned it gets very hot on a warm day.

Karen Tapia

Such a neat little place to spend a weekend morning/afternoon. Great food stands and sitting area!

Steven Doyle

Avoid the burger - the coffee is excellent - be sure to wander around to the meat salt cheese deli (and yes it is always packed)

Bruce Bolton

Pretty impressive place. Very successful & so very busy but a big place so there's always a seat. Free valet parking which is a great idea!

Carla Samson

You'd think weekdays would be more slow paced, but they're not. The grounds are always busy! But the visit is always worth it. Do try the chocolate filled donuts !

Glaucia Morais

This place is awesome. Very different from everything I've been too. Spend some time getting to know the place.

Carlo D.

Very cool place, looks like a traditional farm ! Very nice coffee and pastries , bread , cakes . It's very busy and quite expensive

Tom Kennedy

Getting a park , table and food is such a sh*t fight I shudder if anyone suggests this place. On the upside, garden is lovely.

Thanaa kh

You can't book over a phone so if you are coming in a weekend come as early as you can to reserve a table, we went at 1:30 pm and had 15 reservations ahead of us.

Harle Ong

Queue can be long but they have awesome queue management, supplying you with buzzer if weekends. Otherwise, the guy who manages the queue remembers your face and will go find you when table is ready.

Stan Pro

One of the favourite Sydney dining places at the moment! I hope it will be more modern european places like that!
