About 5 Loaves 2 Fish

Neutral Bay’s tucked-away laneway cafe delivers inventive brunch staples spiked with sharp Asian culinary twists. Locals head past the main strip for plates that skip the predictable cafe playbook—think chilli crab scrambled eggs laced with XO sauce or white truffle scrambled eggs folded with enoki mushrooms. The room hums with early morning energy, welcoming dogs on the sunlit terrace and catering thoughtfully to toddlers with tailored kidware and banana avocado plates. Pair a strong flat white with a hefty bacon and egg roll on a lazy morning.

  • Inventive East-meets-West brunch: Gourmet egg creations feature bold additions like chilli crab with XO sauce, kimchi, and aromatic white truffle.
  • Family and pup-friendly comfort: Thoughtful setup includes outdoor tables for dogs alongside dedicated infant snacks, child plates, and high chairs.
