About Ellie May's Nook

Sunlit and easygoing—Ellie May’s Nook anchors Cammeray mornings with dependable espresso and zero counter pretension. Regulars count on cups pulled with clear acidity and deep aroma alongside thick mochas. Out front, the north-facing patio catches early rays and welcomes neighborhood dogs while tables settle in for brekkie. The kitchen keeps pace with fresh chicken sandwiches, açaí bowls, and baked passionfruit slices, while owner Ellie May greets familiar faces and cues up standing orders before they even reach the register.
