What Heneedsfood likes about South End Cafe:
Loving it. Hands down the best cafe on King Street this end of Newtown Station. The service is fantastic even when all tables are taken. There's always a smile.Food is delicious and leans towards flavours of the Mediterranean and those delicious-looking pies in the cabinet are hand-made onsite.

What Henderson Casper doesn't like about South End Cafe:
Not good breakfast.. We usually like this place, but are increasingly disappointed with the food. We ordered the South End breakfast.

A nice, friendly little cafe. Great coffee, helpful staff. I do like small cafe's like this. It is intimate and personal. I recommend a visit.

I had the veggie brekkie here and it was delicious! This place has a really local vibe, where the staff know a lot of the customers and stop to have a chat.

Located in a cozy corner cafe, the South End offers a variety of breakfast options, cakes, pastries, and good coffee, making it a perfect spot for those walking near Sydney Park. The establishment has a loyal following who appreciate the great meals, friendly staff, and changing special menu. While some have had mixed experiences with the food at times due to undercooked bacon or burnt banana bread, the overall consensus is positive. Diners have praised the stylish presentation of dishes and the attentive service, making it a must-visit for a quiet breakfast or brunch. Despite occasional issues with food quality, the South End remains a popular choice for locals and visitors alike.
