About Loftus Lane Cafe Cocktail Bar

Tucked off Bridge Street near Circular Quay, this floral daytime hideaway swaps out traditional high tea stands for rotating floral Ferris wheels. The tables come laden with smoked salmon brioche buns, dainty finger sandwiches, and cocktails topped with cotton candy clouds. Brunch regulars lean hard into the Southeast Asian fusion side of the kitchen—most notably the spicy tom yum angel hair pasta loaded with king prawns. Match it with an iced fairytale latte or a Thai milk tea cocktail rimmed in peanut butter.

  • Ferris Wheel High Tea: Savoury bites and sweets arrive arranged on a decorative, rotating carousel stand beside custom cocktails.
  • Thai Fusion Plates: Standout savoury brunch plates include spicy tom yum angel hair pasta and basil king prawn pasta.

  • Signature Thai-Fusion Pastas

    The brunch kitchen blends Western brunch classics with bold Southeast Asian profiles like Tom Yum and fragrant basil pastas.

    The tom yum (angel hair) pasta with king prawn was sensational. Hands down one of the best fusion pasta dishes I have ever eaten.

Before you head over

Practical guidance on timing your high tea seating, ordering across menus, and arranging celebration bookings.

  • Arrive on Schedule for Staged High Tea

    High tea ferris wheels are arranged and plated ahead of arrival, so arriving on time ensures smooth seating without standing by while tables are staged.

  • Explore Thai Fusion Brunch for Substantial Savory Dining

    If you prefer hearty, freshly cooked dishes over pre-set tea pastries and scones, consider ordering savory Thai fusion options like basil king prawn pasta or tomyum pasta from the brunch menu instead.

  • Coordinate Special Event Details in Advance

    For celebrations such as bridal showers or birthdays, consider booking a private reservation package to coordinate dietary adjustments and drink inclusions in advance.
