About Curl the Whisker Cafe

Perched right by Thornleigh station, this retro spot delivers punchy Campos espresso and a towering breakfast stack that fuels the morning commute. Regulars phone ahead so their flat whites are waiting on the counter—steaming and ready before the city train pulls in. The kitchen leans into generous portions, led by an egg and bacon stack piled with avocado and sweet caramelised onions on light Turkish bread. Beyond standard espresso pulls, the counter turns out house chai, vibrant turmeric lattes, and thick green tea blends for a slower morning unwind.

  • Signature breakfast stack: Heaps of bacon and egg stacked with avocado and caramelised onion on light Turkish bread.
  • Commuter-ready Campos coffee: Fast-paced takeaway Campos espresso steps from Thornleigh station, with phone-ahead orders for morning commuters.
  • Specialty alternative lattes: A focused non-coffee menu spanning chai, turmeric, taro, and green tea lattes.
