Devon is one of my favourite cafes in Sydney. I’ve tried all of the different Devon cafes. Breakfast at Sakumas is all time favourite. I’ve recently also tried croissant St Denis and really loved it! They are a bit on the pricier end but the quality has been pretty consistent. Definitely will be coming back.
can’t go wrong with the famous egg sando, one of the best in Sydney! 🥰

Devon has a few locations around Sydney, it's surprising I've never visited. I've been to Dopa by Devon several times and really enjoyed it so it was about time.
Went for a family brunch with 16 people so I didn't really get to note down the dishes we tried. Devon Cafe definitely has some fun dishes, they were flavourful and creatively plated.
I had the Corny Benny ($21). I've never had corn bread before but it was yummy and went well with the smoked salmon 😊 The Dr Suess looked really good too, very nostalgic 😋

Croissant St Denis ($25) - 4.5/5
Ghetto style omelette, prawns, crab bisque beurre blanc, caviar, fine herbs, French croissant
I was extremely impressed with the presentation and size of this dish, with the caviar adding wonderful pops of colour and the beautiful crab bisque begging me to dig in. The croissant was fresh and had a lovely buttery flavour. The crab bisque was undoubtedly the highlight as it elevated this dish to another level. The bisque was beautifully thick and rich with seafood flavour and this was topped off with the crab meat scattered throughout. The omelette was smooth and creamy but did cause the dish to be a tad too heavy for my liking. I believe that more cherry tomatoes or another element of freshness would've done the trick.
Good food and good service. The serving sizes are just right in my opinion and the quality of the food was fresh and delicious. Can get busy as it is a hot spot for brunch but staff are as attentive as possible. Decaf coffee here was also very nice.
The same high quality as the other Devon cafes but the North Sydney branch is more spacious. I visited during the truffle season to try their specials menu and we loved every dish- especially the pasta and fluffy egg omelette sandwich. Service was attentive and friendly, and food arrived relatively fast.
I came here looking for a quick bite and that’s exactly what I got. I ordered the egg sandwich and it was deliciously seasoned and spiced. The egg was fluffy, light, rich and generous. The bread was super soft.
Exactly what you’d expect at any other Devon cafe. Similar menu items but what I love here is the Japanese omelette sando!! So simple yet oh so good!
Devon has several branches around Sydney. I previously visited their branches in Surry Hill and Barangaroo. I go to north sydney cafe quite often as I like their savoury menu: crossaint st denis. I tried special menu over Easter and it has toast with matcha cream and matcha ice cream. The bread has good texture with matcha cream inside. The dish was beautifully presented and tasted good.
This Devon Cafe had a much shorter wait than the one in Surry Hills and was equally as delicious! We really loved the interesting selection of original dishes on the menu, that were all uniquely aesthetic and tasty with intricate flavours.
I particularly loved the signature Croissant St Denis ($25) which was ironically labelled a ‘ghetto style omelette’ with prawns, crab bisque beurre blanc, caviar and fresh herbs (YARM). The fried chicken Omurice ($19) was also huge, with a mountain of egg encasing tomato and garlic rice and fried chicken ($9) (YASS). We also had the fish cake and poached egg. Would recommend!
