I’m a little bit reluctant to spread the word about Flat White. For a long time now it’s been my favourite Eastern Suburbs brunch spot. It’s always busy. I’d hate for it to get any more popular. But keeping such a gem to myself just feels too selfish.

So on the morning of my littlest sisters wedding, I generously shared my secret with my ski patroller sister who was back in town for the big event (complete with heat rash) and my almost rock star brother – who managed to have a two course brunch – poached eggs with a pork sandwich chaser – talk about an appetite.

Flat White now has two new fans.

loved

the pork sandwich – a serious contender for the best sandwich ever. rich slow cooked melt-in-the-mouth pork with crunchy crackling, crisp apple, chutney and rocket
the lamb sandwich – super moist slow slow cooked lamb with chuntey & rocket
the middle eastern influences in the menu – especially the poached eggs with za’atar and spinach – the perfect thing for when you feel like a proper breakfast with a bit of a twist
breezy, buzzy cafe vibe

didn’t love

having to choose from such a tempting menu
the super generous serving sizes – too much of a good thing means I always end up over eating.
undercooked button mushies – a rare occurrence
the omelette has been a little disappointing in the past

ate

poached eggs on toast
slow cooked pork sandwich with crackling and apple
poached eggs with za’atar, feta, pinenuts and spinach on toast with a side of mushrooms

on previous visits have also tried
the omelette
7 hour lamb sandwich
the big breakfast – seriously big with excellent black pudding & chorizo

value

OK. On the pricey side for cafe food but you’re paying for quality – and it is Woollahra darling

reservations

none taken
even when it’s really busy and seems like there are heaps of people waiting for a table it doesn’t ever take that long to get seated.

perfect for

breakfast or lunch
