11 iconic Sydney cafes and bakeries to tick off your list (feat. this great-value big breakfast)
These are the legends of Sydney's cafe and bakery scene – a non-exhaustive collection of the places that have stood the test of time, whether through consistent excellence, innovation or hospitality.
Some, like bills, have become internationally renowned, expanding to far-flung cities such as Tokyo and London. Others, such as Yum Yum Bakery, have thrived in situ, building a loyal customer base spanning multiple generations.
This category is one of our most loved entries in Good Food's Essential Sydney Cafes and Bakeries of 2025. Presented by T2, the guide celebrates the people and places that shape our excellent cafe and bakery scenes and includes more than 100 venues reviewed anonymously across 11 categories, including those best for food, tea, coffee and matcha, and where to get the city's best sweets, sandwiches and baked goods. (These reviews also live on the Good Food app, and are discoverable on the map.)
For those who've been to these before, maybe it's time for a revisit. If you've never been, consider this your hit-list for the next few months.
