Fable Coffee

The verdict

Darlinghurst has a new neighbourhood café and it’s just become one of our faves. You need to head here if you’re a lover of good food, coffee and vibes (so all of you). But be warned, you’ll be making a repeat visit. 

Owners Phil and Jessica have been on the Sydney food scene for years, with regular stints at Northern Beaches farmer’s markets. Needless to say, everything on the menu here is fresh AF and there’s even a fridge full of locally sourced goodies to take home for later. 

You can keep it clean here with the blessed morning bowl which is a mish-mash of fruit and veg (in a good way), like blueberries, grated apple, broccoli, nuts, seeds and organic quinoa. If you need something a bit heartier, order the zucchini rosti. Topped with avocado, tomato and a combination of creamy and herby sauces, we dare you to finish the lot without rolling home afterwards. 

The only mandatory is coffee—order two.
