Brainwave Café

★ 4.6 / 5 (1083 reviews)

This hidden gem of a café may not catch your eye from the outside, but once you step in, you are in for a treat. Offering a fusion of Asian and Western cuisines, the dishes are described as delicious and the coffee is top-notch. The Thai influenced burgers and green curry with tofu are highly recommended. The staff are known for being friendly and accommodating, making it a welcoming spot for a quick snack or a study session. With uplifting decorations and a cozy atmosphere, this café is definitely worth a visit, especially to try their pandan and coconut soft serve ice cream. Whether you're looking for a quick breakfast or a relaxing spot away from the city rush, Brainwave Café is sure to impress with its quality food and exceptional service.

Was Tuna at Brainwave Café a mag?
omg this katsu-don was so much better than i expected! I ordered it with egg because i’ve only recently begun to slowly settle into a plant-based life. It was super tasty and the portion is huge for the price! so worth it! The boss was really nice as well. Will definitely be back to try the other dishes!! View all feedback.

What meeel dislikes about Brainwave Café:
The food is delicious and convenient to have in the Haymarket/CBD area. Some menu items are unique and not found in any other vegan restaurants in Sydney (such as hainanese chicken, jajangmyun, etc.). However, in terms of taste and price, I still prefer other vegan Asian/Chinese restaurants. View all feedback.
