Exceptional cafes for breakfast
1. Ninetys

For those of you lucky enough to be able to sit down and revel in hearty breakfasts (i.e. not running late to the office), Ninetys is a good shout. Opening at 8am, Ninetys isn’t only ideal for lazy mornings, but it also has a great variety of scrumptious breakfast items for the early risers amongst you. While each branch has different menus, Ninetys’ Aussie-style toasts and burgers are the must-haves.
Pro tip: We always go for the Ninety’s Brunch Board, because you can try a bit of everything and it never gets boring! Not only do you get to choose between rice and house-made sourdough for carbs, but you can also customise proteins and sides with this breakfast option. Our personal favourites include the Grilled Miso Eggplant and Sous Vide Char Siu; the Black Truffle Scrambled Eggs and Braised Wagyu Beef Cheek are also always worth paying extra for.
