Fantastic service great coffee too! Had dinner here and breakfast- very good location on the edge of Hyde park. I even had take away dinner which was of a very high standard and still hot when I got back to my hotel. Highly recommend this place, it’s become my regular and I’m only here for another few days!�
Was there at lunch with my son and granddaughter. We were meeting daddy fir lunch in his lunch hour. Food was excellent - child's meal do filling she couldn't finish her ice cream. Son and I had a shared plate and coffee. Granddaughter had schnitzel and chips ( and drink and the ice cream). Service friendly and efficient and quick - that last was really appreciated. We sat outside, warmed by the sun and the overhead heaters. Very relaxing as no-one rushed us. A delightful three-generational lunch.
We've been here for 3 times and the most recent visit was last night!!! and will be visiting again in the future!!!
Waitress on the first visit last year was good, the waitress on the second visit was poor but last night waitress and waiter were the excellent so far. Hopefully, they'll continue that kind of service because with the food there's no question asked it's all scrumptious!!!
Last night's order!
Entrees: Flashed fried squid tossed in a spice mix, served with lime aioli, parsley and fresh chili |
Sizzling Garlic Prawns with white wine, onion, olive oil and sourdough.
Main course: 250 gm Sirloin steak with a dukkah crust, twice cooked potatoes and salsa verde for the two of us!
Dessert: Affogato (Espresso, Frangelico, Hazelnut gelato & Biscotti |

A beautiful place to sit down and enjoy - My boyfriend and I had such a tasty breakfast each and the staff are friendly - definitely will come back.
Tonight my friends and I decided to guve The Canopy a go. It was the greatest decision we made because the food was bloody delicious and we had an amazing waiter. Thank you so much Samuel for making our night a night we'll never forget
We've been to The Canopy several times- for functions as well as lunches & dinners. The food is always fantastic & the customer service exceptional. Today we were back for a Mothers Day lunch. Thank you to everyone at The Canopy for always making the day special!
I would recommend this 100 per cent ,the food is really great and service excellent ,staff fabulous. We stayed in Sydney 8 nights and had meals at the Canopy 7 nights very handy to our hotel Y Hotel on Hyde.
Went to the canopy pre a show at the Capitol theatre

We visited the canopy several times this summer. Service was excellent, food was exceptional, and the kid's portions are very generous. We are back home in Texas now and I have to make my husband smashed avocados all the time. I also eat my French toast with mascarpone now! We miss Australia, and your delicious food!
I enjoyed Belgian waffles for breakfast on Saturday, and loved the vibe and great service.
Went here for lunch with some girlfriends. The staff were amazing and food delicious. Recommend the pumpkin quinoa salad with salmon.
Amazing staff and food, great place! Highly recommended.
Best barista in Sydney! Friendly staff and great breakfast!
Enjoy my best takeaway coffee ever!!!!! ���
The detox breakfast was just what the body needed... coffees were good and the service was prompt and friendly. A good spot to stop and people watch while you have a meal
We came here after a very early morning flight up from Melbourne. The Middle East brekky is a great creation to bring some new fresh flavours mixed in with some old favourites and my partner and I loved it. Coffee was also great!
Our trip to Canopy came as a result of us walking around the Sydney CBD and finding a lot of restaurants closed on the labour day long weekend, but hell it was really worth it! It was fantastic because I hadn’t looked up Canopy for reviews or ratings at all which made the experience all the more objective. Right opposite Hyde Park is ‘The Canopy’, and while walking passed it is actually very easy to miss purely because of the distance from the sidewalk.
The use of a full blooded, real deal steak in the beef salad here at The Canopy was very much appreciated. As you can see 👇 this is a well prepared, grilled steak and not just some lame beef strips you often get with these dishes. Have at it. 🍖
This is my go-to morning coffee place when I'm working at this end of town but this is the first time I've been for lunch and its as good as my morning coffee. I had the salmon nicoise, which was really delicious and fresh. Other dishes on the table were the prawn linguine and the super impressive club sandwich (yes, food envy). The service was friendly, the only let down is that the meals were a little slow to come out - for a weekday lunch you want to be in and out in under an hour.
The perfect breakfast to end my Sydney trip! A bagel eggs bene with avocado. I don't think I can critique it much - you all know what a good eggs Ben tastes like.
The Canopy is a hidden gem! Lovely wait staff, great location (just by Hyde Park) and delicious food. Would definitely recommend esp for those looking for a bigger size cafe in the city.
Came here in a Groupon deal which worked out to be pretty cheap. For entree we ordered fried squid with 5 spice, and mozzarella wrapped in prosciutto. Both were excellent.
For mains we ordered a sirloin steak that was lathered in Dijon mustard with a dukka crust. It came with a side of fried potatoes. It was excellent!
Our second main was a duck dish. It came with two duck marylands which I thought was very generous.
Overall, excellent meal and great value even if we were to come without a voucher.

Directly opposite the Hyde Park and Museum Station, the location of Canopy is ideal and accessible, especially after a nice morning walk in the park. The cafe has both indoor and outdoor seatings with a lovely interior. Service is friendly and effective, it doesn't hurt for the staff to joke around a bit with customers.
Canopy Egg Nest was the first thing caught our eyes as it is quite different from your usual breakfast or brunch dishes. The eggs are poached first and then wrapped in brick pastry and served with sour cream, smashed avocado, cherry tomato and balsamic reduction. We loved the fact that it came with properly smashed avocado. The pastry was really thin and crispy, which added nice texture to the dish.
The daily special at the time of our visit is the breakfast stack. According to the staff, this is quite a popular item and it might become a regular menu item soon. Poached eggs are laid on top of baby spinach and toasted sourdough, then served with slow roasted tomato and prosciutto wafers, beetroot cubes and goats cheese. It is as good as breakfast combination goes. Everything is married together in superb balance. The freshness of the beetroot coupled with the tanginess of the cheese and saltiness of the prosciutto create a dish with many flavours and texture.
We finished our meal with a sweet ending - the french toast. It is dusted in cinnamon sugar and served with vanilla bean mascarpone and mixed berry compote. The vanilla bean mascarpone was much needed to bring the flavour out of the dish.
We enjoyed our walk in the park and glad to finish the lovely morning with a satisfying breakfast in Canopy.
Just opposite Hyde Park and right outside Museum Station, The Canopy is an amazing restaurant offering a great selection of classic brunch, lunch and dinner plates! On our visit, we tried their great breakfast menu, which is just about to be revamped with some delicious dishes, including the waffles with berries and fresh fruit. The crunchy waffles and the tart berries were a great sweet treat to start the morning!
Visited the canopy for dinner with friends. The restaurant is nicely decorated and the service staff were friendly. We ordered the trio of dips and bread as entree. This included hummus, tzatziki and olive tapenade and it offered a range of flavours which was a nice start to the meal. For mains, we ordered the crispy skinned barramundi, Atlantic salmon fillet, prawn linguini and margherita pizza. Both fish dishes were perfectly cooked and the skin super crispy so I recommend those! The linguini includes chilli flakes which has quite the punch so if you can't handle the chilli, you can request to have it served separately.

This restaurant is located on Elizabeth Street close by to Museum Station and Hyde Park. Service here is lovely even in the early hours of the morning especially Scott who was the main waiter serving us. There is both an indoor and outdoor seating areas and the inside is decorated with forest designs thus their name. Outside there is a coffee cart outside so great for dropping by for a quick coffee and snack to go.
We came here to sample the breakfast menu which is extensive and provides plenty of options even to the fussiest of eaters. We wanted a variety of dishes so went with Wild Mushrooms with a side of bacon, Salmon Gravadlax with a side of wilted baby spinach, and French Toast to share. The mushrooms were cooked well and were bursting with flavour and truffle hollandaise on top of the poached eggs was delicious. The egg on the salmon was a nice accompaniment to the creme fraiche on the bagel. French Toast wasn't too sweet and had a nice berry compote and mascarpone on top.
Thank you to Zomato and the restaurant for offering the chance to dine here.

Located opposite Museum Station, The Canopy restaurant has some delicious cocktail and dinner options. With both indoor and outdoor seating the restaurant can accommodate small or large groups.
For starters we had the Chinese five spice calamari which was well seasoned and had a good amount of chili. Mains were a difficult choice with a good range of pizzas, pastas and other options such as salmon, steak and confit duck. I was pleasantly surprised by the variation on the menu. We went for the mushroom and asparagus risotto and the Atlantic salmon fillet with vegetables. Both meals were a generous serving and were presented beautifully. The roast veggies and reduction matched the crispy skin salmon and was extremely filling. The crispy skinned barramundi with garlic prawns and quinoa salad will most certainly be a choice for next time. The mains will set you back about $30 and the pizza and pasta options are in the $20 range. This place is so central, has accommodating staff and with a menu that has something for everyone, it is definitely worth a visit

Boasting park views in the bustling metropolis that is home to many legal eagles swarming the nearby Downing Centre, the interior wood walls and floor to ceiling glass windows let in a lot of light providing a sophisticated space for all ocassions.
The outside coffee cart is setup for the masses of food traffic of workers, the bar and food catering to the next door hotel guests, residential area and commuters as this venue reflects the personality of this melting pot of lifestyles in and around the CBD.
THE CANOPY CLUB SANDWICH is jam packed with layers of flavour! Pesto tossed chicken breast, bacon, cheese, tomato, lettuce, egg avocado salsa and aioli. Such a substantial portion which could easily be shared as its accompanied with fries. The mixing of meats, the crunch of the veg with the mushy textures of egg-avo-aioli were a treat with every bite.
We ended up sharing mains as we were envious of the other's order when they were brought to the table:
THE PRAWN LINGUINI of al dente pasta and prawns swimming in a coating of white wine, garlic, baby spinach and cherry tomato really reminded me of a version of this Jamie Oliver establishments do. There's a slight kick in this that I like with a good balance of protein and pasta. Just make sure to mix in all the elements – the dressing here makes this dish,
The grand showstopper was their CRISPY SKINNED BARRAMUNDI which had a soft flake as you ran your knife on it. Served with garlic prawns and a mediterranean style quinoa salad. It also passed the crispy skin test – done perfectly.
In terms of service there was a nice flow as the staff have a large area to work and maintain both indoors and out. We were given just the right amount of attention without intrusion, the recommendations were spot on, the customer service all round from both the Supervisor Scott and his team who took turns looking after us impeccable.
The versatility of the space as a brunch/lunch destination, stylish bar and coffee-on-the-go gives you many reasons to revisit the charming space. Definitely a must over the Sydney Festival season and beyond!
Been here about 3yrs back as i live more out towards south west sydney way, especially the truffle oil asparagus n mushroom risotto, it was great then and still is now and i just came 2nyt for my birthday dinz, def. Recommend just for a good entree and this main 😆

City cafe bustling with a lot of suits. I'd lie if I said they were perfect, far from it but I like their setup across from the park
The food itself cooked well but a little shabby on the plating but with some work could make them a must city cafe
Busy little coffee cart at the front of the restaurant. Had a few minutes wait to be served. Few more minutes waiting for my coffee. Was pleasant to drink. Standard skinny cap
The restaurant wasn't particularly full during my dinner visit, yet food took a while to arrive. Service wasn't super friendly.
The portions were generous and the scallops, in particular, were cooked and seasoned well. I'd visit again to try the breakfast menu.
Canopy used to served very ordinary, plain and normal breakfast. But not anymore! I feel like they changed a lot over this past few years, into a better brunch perfect destination. The tastes got better, the cocktails were made cooler, the desserts tripled its number (now it's so hard to choose) and the hamburgers became so enormous. The bright side, they still keep the price low, that enough said :)
This review was for April 2016 when we bought a Groupon deal for brekky on our visit to Sydney. Upon arrival, the place was quite busy outside where queues of people waiting for their takeaway coffees but quiet inside. Service was good and so was food. We were able to get coffee or freshly squeezed juice with our brekky.

The Canopy is a relaxed place that's very popular on Friday nights. The atmosphere is friendly and the staff take the time to chat with customers - without overdoing it either.
We were amazed with the entertainment The Canopy has on Friday nights - Julian the magician. This guy is good, really good. He did some incredible card tricks. We kept wondering "How did he do that?"
We started our meal with a couple of entrees. Prosciutto wrapped mozzarella – oven baked with extra olive oil topped with rocket and served with sourdough and we also had sizzling garlic prawns – garlic, chilli, white wine, onion and olive oil served sizzling with sourdough.
Had dinner with a friend using a Our Deal voucher. We arrived on Friday night but unfortunately our booking was not registered in their diary. Still, they were happy to accommodate us at a busy time. The food was beautiful! We had two entrees that we shared and then my friend and I had separate mains. We also had a glass of wine as part of the deal. By the time we got our mains, the restaurant had cleared out and we established that it was a popular eating spot for people attending the theatre. All in all, a good place and I will return.
On our travels to Museum Station we noticed this place was open so decided to stop and have breakfast.. Lucky we did stop cause I was satisfied with my meal.. Wanted to try something different so chose the Dukkah Roast Pumpkin Salad.. Fresh, light and poached eggs were cooked to perfection! Wasn't sure how a poached egg would go with roast pumpkin but the flavours all round complemented each other... Enjoyed the coffee with my breakfast that I had to have another to go!
Omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Must go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Their pasta is just so good and big portions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Service are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is a convenient local near to museum station. The waiters are very nice people. the menu incluides pizza, pasta, salad and sandwiches. The food is fresh and have a great taste. The service is quite fast.
I love this place. So convenient, next to Hyde Park, and still serving lunch til quite late. Food has always been good, I had dinner here one time a few months ago before a show and it was spectacular - my companion had the salmon and was raving about it. Had a pizza for a late lunch most recently and was less keen on the pizza, but it was good - just nothing special. Ambience is surprisingly good, especially for being so CBD-central. Even outside, the tables are nice and solid, and the pavement is so wide that you're back from the road. Great with our dog. Staff are always friendly and courteous, and bathroom is clean and well appointed. My current favourite place in Sydney CBD.
We came here for dinner with Ourdeal voucher for 4. Service was average, food was tasty, big portion so good value for money. I'll be happy to come back again.
This is a great spot for a CBD big brekky; conveniently located just opposite museum station, and only a short walk from George and Pitt street. Our waiter was a really nice Italian bloke who couldn't do too much for us. My flat white was nice, and served in the perfect size mug... The milk to coffee ratio is too often undervalued.
Very pleasant all round modern Australian restaurant with a bit of something for everyone, including pizzas, pasta, sandwiches, salads, and steak. We frequently lunch here due to the consistently high standard of food, complemented with the helpful wait staff. The pizzas have a nice selection of toppings.. Today we ordered the ground beef, salami and ham pizza, the pulled pork sandwich, the prosciutto salad, and the prawns linguine.. The pizza is large and tasty, the pulled pork sando was generous, the prawns linguine was hearty and the prosciutto salad very fresh.. Yet again another excellent Friday lunch. One more thing.. The thin cut fries with aioli is also splendid..
Great place to hang out with friends for breakfast. Loved the menu, lots of options even gluten free available. The coffee is the best and made just how I like it. They also have a coffee cart out the front which is how I found The Canopy.
Will definitely come back.

I was recommended "The Canopy" from a friend and I have been a regular customer since!
The decor is modern and clean with a playful simplicity.
The extensive drinks offer compliments the menu and it is great to have a cocktail or two with Dinner.
I have tried every entree on the menu but my favorite is the Scallops. Always cooked to perfection and the portion size is just right. The dips are to die for with plenty of olives served as a starter.
You cant go wrong with any of the quality Meat options for mains and they serve the best shoestring fries I have ever eaten!
The fresh ingredients and full flavored sauces are a great accompaniment to any of the Mains on offer.
The pastas are a generous size full of flavor,but I never can eat the whole bowl.
I have only ever eaten 1 dessert - The cookies and cream cheesecake. DIVINE, I cant go past it every visit.
Breakfast is a must. My breakfast favorite is the sweetcorn & Zucchini fritters, although the big breakfast comes in as a close second. Well done "The Canopy" I will be back!!
Respectful and knowledgeable wait staff. Nice service, relaxing environment and some views (through the traffic) to Hyde park.
We went with a voucher and were treated courteously
Portion sizes are quite small. The menu was varied and should please most. There are tables out on the pavement as well as inside. I recommend it.
The Top Line: The canopy is a great place to hang out after work in the city, to catch up with friends or to have a family dinner. We loved the casual-fine setting, simple menu, attentive and helpful staff and the meat… we loved the meat here!!! (Also hear they do great brunches as well!! So I can’t wait to try brunch there one day)
Dined multiple times here on our stay in Sydney, food is lovely (except those muffins where they serve coffee), the staff are wonderful and friendly. Would go on our next trip, always reliable!
A ordered two eggs (which are typically served on sourdough) with slow-roasted tomatoes with a side of bacon and avocado ($13). A really enjoyed this breakfast and was surprised with the generous serving of bacon provided.Not only was the breakfast generous and tasty, but the coffee was really good. The Canopy imports their house blend of Ionia coffee from Sicily and this freshly ground coffee has a strong and unique flavour. I really enjoyed trying the new coffee bean and thought that the barista made the coffees really well.
Very Very Good!. Prices are not low (unless you manage to grab yourself a deal), but there is nothing cheap about the food either. The scallops, carpaccio and affogato are fantastic. The chocolate tart is death by chocolate; not for the calorie conscious but yummy. Service is perfect. I just wish they had more vegetarian options, but Italian restaurants rarely do... Thanks for a perfect dinner!

Flawless food and service. Two of us dined at dinner on a Groupon voucher on Sunday. Could not fault the entire experience. Booking was easy over the phone on the date of my choice (made more than a month before voucher expiry). Table was ready on arrival with a reserved sign. Staff welcomed warmly and promptly explained the menu. Everything was available to choose from, unlike some restaurants producing a "special" menu for voucher redemptions (codeword for cheaper alternative). Order was taken without having to call a waiter. These were our choices:
Entree - Tasmanian smoked salmon,swedish style mustard sauce, fresh pickled cucumber, salmon roe
Main - a) 100 day grain fed riverina scotch fillet, 300 gram with pepper sauce and roast vegetables
Main - b) 100 day grain fed riverina scotch fillet, 300 gram with Texas BBQ and steamed vegetables
Dessert - a) vanilla cheesecake ,maple glazed banana ,salted caramel, candied peanuts
Dessert - b) rhubarb and apple crumble, roasted pineapple ice cream
Deal included glass of house red or white wine (we chose shiraz) each. The salmon was fresh and flavoursome. The steak was tender (medium cooking request fulfilled). The cheesecake was divine just as the waitress recommended. During the meal, the waitress checked in to see how everything tasted. Plates were cleared without intrusion.
At the conclusion, the staff also politely greeted us farewell.
This was our second visit and we can recommend anybody dining at the Canopy.
Customer for life. I love this place. The staff are incredible and are very generous - especially if they remember you.
The food is always consistent and is really well-priced for a CBD cafe. It's got a great vibe any time from a Monday morning to Friday after work drinks.
The baristas out the front are SO friendly and seem to genuinely love their job which always puts a smile on my face.
Muffins never seem to taste fresh but the banana bread is delicious.
Im in town for work and Canopy is a few doors down so Ive been eating here quiet a bit the past few days. The place is great. All the staff are super friendly and one of the guys remembered my coffee and brekkie order after just one day! Generous serving of eggs for brekkie and the pizza is amazing - tasty and once again, decently sized.
The only thing i wasn't particularly fond of was the coffee. Otherwise, highly recommend Canopy.
I love having breakfast here! great coffee, CHEAP BREAKFAST (i added so many extras!) and lovely waitors !!
I'm a regular amazing peopl.... I'm a regular
amazing people
amazing coffee
try their Spanish omelette it's also amazing ! hahaha
Really good eggs on sourdough with half a roasted tomato for only $8. We added Salmon, spinach, avocado and mushrooms for a delicious breakfast.
Cafe staff attentive and poliet.
Fantastic Dinner and Wine. Highly recommend the Scallops and Chorizo or stuffed Zuchini flower for Entre, and the Lamb for Main. Cheap Prices. Stayed at the Pullman hotel up the road, nice and close. Oh and try the Duriff wine. Sensational. Not sure about the music selection but other than that the service and food was a hit
Wow!!. 8 course degustation with matching wines was an unbelievable adventure. Must try!!
Great breakfast special. The canopy has a breakfast special that is just under 10-.
Included is coffee as you want it; eggs cooked as you choose, toast of your choice and bacon. All was cooked to perfection. They even sprinkled some fresh sprouts over the eggs. It was a great value.
Great Breakfast!. We had a lovely breakfast here on a Saturday morning recently.
Friday Afternoon Pizza and Wine. Pizza and Wine. Well the weather was nice, weird for this time of year but what an outlook. Pizzas were nice thin crust italian style and we had a bottle of white Italian wine that the waitor recommended. A little noisy because of the traffic. Good atmosphere and great for a feed and drinks afterwork. 8 out of 10.
The Canopy - 8.5/10. Being a fan of Italian food an culture i thought i would try this 'Modern Italian' cuisine. The fitout was a wood and concrete feel and while it looks and feel expensive it was really well priced. I had the Procutto pizza(and there was plenty of proscutto) and my partner had the hand cut fries as a starter and we both had the Lobster Fettucine for mains. Not enough wines to choose from on the menu however there was a couple of nice italian bottles. Finished off with Dessert overall i gice it a 8.5 out of 10.
Glad this place was open for a salmon bagel before jury duty. The staff are friendly and there's a good selection of fresh sandwiches to choose from. The toasted salmon bagel was very nice for a breezy morning.
Very convenient location, near Hyde Park—-which needs more cafe actually!
Coffee is nice.Haven’t tried the food again for a while

Love the food was so yummy bread was soft thick and fluffy. And bacon was not too crispy. Also the server was really nice make me fell cozy and comfy.
Nice cosy place - great friendly staff and well priced drinks!
one word DELICIOUS!!! We went here for breakfast and ordered eggs Benedict, waffles, fritters and granola with fresh fruit. The meals were a great portion and very tasty with friendly service A+++ highly recommended.
Fulfilling waffles and nice addition to the outside dining - with blankets! First restaurant I’ve ever been to feature blankets, cafes take note!!
Great welcome! Food outstanding quality and value for money. Coffee ok staff helpful and genuinely friendly. Highly recommend and will come again.
