“ Very nice, definitely one to try if you're in the area. Steak and eggs were lovely. Mushrooms on toast were great but a lot of kale to eat in one sitting! Coffee is pretty good too ”
“ Gather Café is a well-kept favourite in Braddon, tucked away on Mort Street away from the bustle of Lonsdale Street. It has a calm, relaxed vibe which makes it perfect for a peaceful brunch or coffee catch-up. The menu focuses on locally sourced, sustainable produce—and you can really taste the difference. We ordered the Gather Smavocado, the Duck Salad, and the Crumpets with Eggs, and everything was delicious. But the surprise favourite for me was the crumpets—so simple but absolutely perfect. I think I’ve found my new favourite breakfast! Although, I think I need to go back and try the Dragonfruit Bowl to compare. The coffee was really nice and the staff were friendly and welcoming. It’s always a bonus when the service matches the quality of the food. The café itself is beautifully designed—modern and airy with lots of natural light and attention to detail in the decor. It’s a space that makes you want to linger. It has dog friendly tables outside. The outside tables are Wheelchair accessible however I can’t attest to how accessible inside. There is car parking nearby for a fee or you can easily walk here from the city centre. It is also located close to local hotels. Highly recommend checking this place out if you’re in Braddon and after something a little quieter. ”
“ Great cafe with amazing Avo Toast and coffee to its perfection. Service needs a little more courtsey because (1) Our TA coffee was served 20 minutes before TA food which made coffee cold. Apology is how far it went. (2) 2nd day we went with full family of 7 but despite full table available was asked to seat outside. We ended up doing TA coffee only. And kids ended up playing on walkway while waiting so didnt end too bad. ”
