I’ve been wanting to visit this cafe for a long time but I’ve been busy. I’m glad to say that my visit was really worth it. The food was delicious and the coffee was great! Very friendly service too.
Everything I had was a pleasure to eat but my favourites were the roast duck noodle bowl and breakfast burrito. Delicious dishes.

Huge portions, delicious coffee and ample seating, the perfect neighbourhood brunch spot! We ordered the baked eggs which came with some truly delicious chorizo and the egg white omelette with smoked salmon, which came with the largest portion of smoked salmon I have ever seen. The coffee did come out after the food which was odd, but it was so delicious and there was quite a queue of people for takeaway coffee so totally understandable. Overall great experience and will definitely be back.
I love fried chicken and to be able to bring it forward to a mid-morning meal of brunch with the Southern Style Fried Chicken Eggs Benedict was perfect. The chicken had a tasty, crunchy coating, the eggs were perfectly poached, the kale nice and crispy and the whole thing was doused with sriracha hollandaise. The biscuit it was perched on was perhaps a little too big as I couldn't finish it, but I'm never going to complain about having too much food! I also had the Serious George smoothie which has the magic combination of banana and peanut butter with dates, chia seeds and coconut with soy milk and coffee. It was super thick and really filling. Great service and the cafe has a cool vibe, particularly out in the street when the jacarandas are flowering!
For a solid big breakfast, this is your place. Portion sizes are generous, produce is quality, what more do you want in a big breakfast. Highlights were the the bacon, fresh eggs with a deep yellow yolk cooked to your liking and they use pepe saya butter.
I ate the vegetarian version of the big breakfast which I thought was equally as good as the regular version (with meat). The ingredients were quality and again, a big, hearty portion.
And it’s a big brekky that isn’t decorated in flowers, it’s the real deal!
I will be dropping back for visit again soon!
Quality! It Shouldnt Be That Hard! Love A Wonderful Mouth Full Of Wholesome FOOD!

My best friend and I had just had her hens night the night before, and her wife to be was like let’s try this cafe, she googled it. It had good reviews and we said why not.
It’s a small cafe that pumps out amazing food! It’s so busy but the turn over is quick. It’s what you want on a weekend so you can get out and enjoy your days off. I was surprised that the food tasted amazing for how fast it came out!
I had a egg white omelette with salmon. To die for! Recommend it!!
My friend had maybe the vegetarian breakfast but changed it so she can have scrambled eggs instead! It was amazing the only down fall was! The bake beans where so so spicy it was crazy....
My other friend had some kind of poached eggs with pesto. It was the most amazing pesto I have ever tried!
The coffee was delicious made with love to perfection.
Love this restaurant highly recommend it
Good coffee, great food and excellent customer service is what makes the First Drop Cafe a gem in Sydney's cafe scene. Their ever changing weekly specials are always a must try. Be it 'dine in' OR 'takeaway' First Drop always delivers! Keep up the good work.
One of the best cafes around Redfern/Surry Hills area. Great staff and service, the food is always up to scratch and tastes amazing. Simply put it they know what they are doing here.
Nice cafe with comfy seating inside plus outside seats. Service was quick, standard prices, good size meals. I had the eggs benedict with ham, I really enjoyed this, hollandaise sauce & ham was yum & the eggs cooked well. My partner had scrambled eggs with bacon & toast, which was a big size. The place was not too packed for a Sunday lunch.

I am leaving nearby this cafe and pass in front of it everyday in the bus but never had the time.during the week to stop there. Last weekend i finally decided to give a try after seeing so much attractive pictures on my instagram. We decided to order a fresh juice with watermelon, apple and mint and it was perfect as it was quite warm. Mr took an iced coffee with cream and icecream. It was just delicious. For once the whipped cream was sweet ( which is always the case in France) and I love this extra sweetness.
For the mains we took 1 burger and the special salad with scallop and bacon. And this dish was amazing. 3 avocado toast (very generous) and 5 scallops with feta,bacon abd a lot of chilli. Just perfect. And it change so luch from the classic salad you can find in other cafes. The Big Mick burger was good too. Mr told the sauce has exactly the same taste as the Big Mac. Which is a compliment because here the bread and the meat were good too so this give rise to a very tasty burger. The fries were ok. Maybe better with sweet potato fries. But just because we love them!!
I was too late so the muffins were sold out. But i will come back for sure !!
A piece of heaven in Redfern. A relaxing place in a very special location. Good coffee, terrific staff, fantastic food, nothing trying to be pretentious...One of the best options for a Sunday morning.
We found this little cafe through google reviews and during our short trip in Sydney we come back 3 days in a row.. Lovely staff & gorgeous food!
Highly recommend it! ❤️
Quality coffee, served hot which is exactly how I like it. This is slowly becoming my everyday coffee stop when I'm in the office.
I haven't yet tried much from the lunch menu, but I had one of the sandwiches the other day which was packed with lots of filling and flavour. I believe it was the Californian. Some of my work mates also had a sandwich and the amount of filling was consistent across everyone's.
I definitely recommend a visit if you're in the area.
Have been coming to this gem for years and love it each time. Spacious seating with lots of pet friendly areas. Expansive menu with something to suit all, including a range of yummy cocktails. The owners are awesome and it’s so good to see things up and running again after what I’m sure has been a long two years.
BEST CAFE EVER!!!! If I could give it 10 stars I would 🫶🏻
Exceptional service, food, coffee and vibes - just an all round excellent experience and somewhere I will time and and time again return to. Can’t recommend the First Drop enough, their positivity and willingness to help with anything is always something that’ll leave you feeling fantastic after any brunch.
You’ll find no better cafe in the area - First Drop is the ONLY stop! 😍
This place is a great and fellows who work here are great too. I've had the Big Mick burger twice and I'm keen on trying their sandwiches next. I don't drink coffee but I understand it's particularly good here
