When a snack simple won't do the job, our café menu does the trick.
House-made granola, perfectly-poached eggs, shakshuka, schnitzel in challah. The list deliciously doesn't stop there.
Whether you’re after a slow breakfast, a hearty lunch or just something to keep you going, pull up a seat and stay awhile.

These two 😍 Michael and his daughter Lily are part of the family behind The Grumpy Baker. While they're usually split between our 10 cafe and bakery locations across Sydney and NSW, sometimes the stars align and you'll find them together plotting their next delicious baked-good move. 🥐

Hunger pang? Roll up for one of these. Hand-rolled at each of our locations and baked daily with buttery, flaky pastry and slow-braised beef. You'll never look at another sausage roll the same way again. 🔥
