Soulmate

Cafe$

This venue is one of Good Food’s 100 Essential Sydney Cafes and Bakeries of 2026.

The bright mid-morning energy of this Newtown corner cafe spills onto the street, making it as fun for people-watching as it is for a meal. The breakfast burger is generous and filling, lox bagel light and fresh, and service is always with a smile.

Those game enough to try something new should order the liquorice bread – topped with salt flakes and a side of butter, its texture is closer to cake than bread.

Good to know: Arrive well before noon on weekends if you want to try the black sausage sanga.
