The Coffee here is very good. Beautifully presented, my Cafe Latte is intense, full flavoured and smooth. Thank you Barista Mundie for my great coffee and for your friendly welcome. Phuong Tran and I will return for lunch soon.
This was a very cute cafe! The cafe had a lot of open seating, and plenty of spaces to choose from (cute pillows!). We ordered:
Slow cooked lentils and beans ($16.5)
The popular Sticky black rice with tapioca ($15)
Drinks ☕️
Ice latte
Soy chai (they accidentally made a soy flatwhite but changed straight away)
All the food was very nice, with a substantial portion in regard to the cost. Not too pricey compared to other brunch places. Overall, cute!
Seen on the menu written “order at the counter”, alright we had no problem with that. Just wondered why it’s so not nice of staff not to even smile or say hello when noticing customers sitting in and looking around. Though our soy latte and iced latte were nice and smooth, we didn’t find the menu interesting and service didn’t actually exist. The 4 star rating was really for the coffee.
Great coffee, tasty and interesting menu. Cheery staff, comfortable and welcoming surrounding.
Great spot for a Sunday afternoon drink. A must try.
We love Atticus! Great coffee, good fare and super friendly service with a chilled, locals vibe. Bring your pooch - everyone else does here! Quite the Paddo scene - part of the fabric now. Awesome spot.
Sunday morning it is - For many, weekends are the staple days for an early breaky/brunch catch up. Knowing it will be difficult to find a parking space, I decided to stick to the cafes near work.
Located on the side street of Latrobe Terrace is Atticus Finch Cafe. An establishment that introduces a variety of healthy breakfast feeds like Black Sticky Rice, Mixed Grain Porridge and Fruity Patootie Muesli just to name a few. You'll also find many of their dishes with the included ingredients: honey, poached pear, berry compotes or yoghurts. For the healthy peeps, this will probably be the place for you. However, if you're seeking for the traditional bacon and eggs breaky, this may not be the destination that'll satisfy your needs ☝🏻
Stated on their Zomato page, there were several popular dishes. Warm Malted Semolina and Rhubarb sounded interesting and was one of them, so I settled for that and a Flat White coffee.
Coffee: Consisted strong nutty flavours as well as bitterness and served only lukewarm. Unfortunately, it wasn't to my liking.
Food: Served with Warm Malted Semolina, Rhubarb, Poached Pear, Pistachios, Yoghurt, Honey and Cardamom. The malted semolina was gooey and held a smooth yet sticky texture. The yoghurt was light offering subtle vanilla flavours. The rhubarb gave out a fruity and tangy twist to the dish. On top, was 3 slices of soft poached pear that preserved sweetness and juiciness. Lastly, were the crushed pistachios, which I would've appreciated more if they were on the crunchier side 🙌🏻
Considering the dish contained three sweet mixes, it was surprising that everything balanced out well and nothing was overpowering 👌🏻
Good Stuff: Atticus Finch Cafe trades till 8pm on Friday-Sunday serving up a variety of nice alcoholic beverages including cocktails, beers, reds and whites. They don't only look out for the early bunch, they got your back for the nights too!
Wonderful friendly place - kind of like hanging out at your crazy dog loving friends place.
Happy hour drinks are a bargain and the brunch menu is super tasty and generally quite healthy.
Uber dog friendly and there are lots of dogs every time. Stay away if you don't like dogs otherwise enjoy the cuddles!
A poor choice on my behalf this morning seeing I really wanted bacon, but I didn't realize the menu here wouldn't have that breakfast staple. The miso salmon salad was enjoyable and the cherry soda tasty, but I really wanted a caramel latte (which they don't have). Maybe one to retry in the future
Great place, I love to start my mornings with. Really friendly and helpful staff. I love most of the dishes from this place but fav has to be sticky rice.
Best hot chocolate I've had in a long time. One of those ones that tastes like real melted chocolate. And you can choose either dark, milk or white choc. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Nice seating options too :)
Quaint little cafe on Latrobe terrace with a great outdoor area. Food was fantastic and the staff were friendly and helpful. Service was great too however due to covid we’re guessing the table service and the clearing away of glasses/plate staff was limited. I would definitely go again because the food was fabulous and the outdoor ambiance was welcoming and relaxing.
Gorgeous backyard, relax and very nice coffee. Healthy and so tasty food with lovely presentation.
Thanks for the hospitality, sure we will back! 😋
Lovely cafe in Paddington. Have visited several times and the food has always been great. Enjoyed their special of French toast today, highly recommend! Coffee consistently good and staff are always friendly! ☺️
Good cafe in Paddington, great home vibe, nice gardens outside, pet friendly. Food is great, good serving size, the handmade hashbrowns are a must try! 👍
We decided to have an early (around 8.30am) breakfast at Sassafras on a Sunday morning.
The facade of the venue as well as the inside decor is very homely, and feels as though you were walking through your neighbour’s house, the indoor seating looked a bit cramped and loud so we opted for backyard seating which was very comfortable and quiet.
We were greeted swiftly upon arrival, given seating options as well as food and drinks menus.
We ordered drinks first, from a menu with a lot of variety, including juices, smoothies, shakes, non-caffeinated hot drinks and classic coffee options.
We picked the cold drip, shot of espresso, and a turmeric latte. All drinks came relatively quickly and were very well made, the cold drip was not bitter, had great flavour, and the turmeric latte had a good amount of spices and heat.
Shortly before receiving our drinks we had ordered our food, the menu selection for breakfast was very appetising, and there was a wide range of options of varying dietary restrictions.
We noticed there was a specials’ board hanging on the wall, though unfortunately that was not brought to our attention by our server.
After much deliberation we finally decided to share two plates: the corn fritters with extra smoked mushrooms and the ricotta hotcakes, with extra banana and maple syrup.
The food arrived promptly and piping hot. Everything looked house-made and of great quality, well presented with a good amount on each plate.
The corn fritters were quenelled then deep fried, which was a great twist on the usual pancake-style pan fried version, and tasted great, all the flavours paired together on the plate worked impeccably well together.
The ricotta hot cakes were some of the best executed we have had in the past, a very rich dish with ricotta throughout the batter mix, the honey butter which topped it all off complemented it perfectly and made for a very filling and gourmand breakfast.
By the time we were ready to leave, the venue had become bustling with customers and we were thankful to have come in early. We had an overall great experience at Sassafras, and we would highly recommend it for a delicious breakfast, though be sure to get in early or book your table to avoid crowds on a weekend.

We had really good brunch.
Service and food was so good.
Definitely come back w my doggie.
My doggie enjoyed doggie ice cream which was really bit expensive but worth it for ur cute dog 😄
I love environment and atmosphere!
Interior was green and nature style.
Sooo good!
Service was super friendly, unfortunately we came at a crowded time so food took a little while to arrive. However the food was delicious and fruit juices were made fresh. Eggs bennys were pipping hot and soba salad was refreshing and a generous portion.
