🩷☕️Cafe Bites: THE BROOKS CAFE, LIDCOMBE🍳🩷

Tucked away amongst the gorgeous heritage buildings of the former Lidcombe Hospital you’ll find The Brooks Cafe, @thebrookscafe, a Korean-run brunch spot that feels like a little oasis in the middle of Sydney. Think leafy surrounds, beautiful period architecture and a relaxed village atmosphere. We visited for a lovely mums and daughters brunch, joined by the gorgeous girls behind the fabulous @matcha_across_sydney. If you’re a matcha lover, do yourself a favour and give these matcha queens a follow; they know their matcha!

From the moment we arrived, the warm and welcoming service made us feel right at home. The menu is beautifully curated, with creative, innovative dishes that go beyond your usual brunch fare. There’s a lovely indoor dining space, plus a terrace where you can soak up the peaceful surrounds. Oh, and it’s both child and dog friendly! I love discovering places like this, where the setting is as special as the food and the people behind it. If you’re looking for somewhere a little different for your next brunch date, put The Brooks Cafe on your list. It’s a true hidden gem worth seeking out. Here’s what we had:
