About Silver Fox Cafe

Mortdale regulars bypass typical strip fare here for creative brunch plates and serious coffee. Past the narrow front counter, the dining room opens into a sheltered rear courtyard garden away from street noise. The kitchen swaps standard English muffins for toasted croissants—stacking them with poached eggs, avocado, and balsamic glaze—or plates Balkan-inspired Ajvar chilli eggs alongside loaded brekkie bowls. At the machine, baristas extract espresso over chilled Paragon metal spheres to preserve delicate coffee aromatics.

  • Croissant Eggs Benedict: Eggs Benedict comes stacked on toasted croissants with avocado and a light balsamic drizzle.
  • Sheltered Rear Courtyard: A deep hallway leads to a sheltered outdoor garden terrace away from street noise.
  • Paragon Espresso Extraction: Espresso extraction over chilled Paragon metal spheres locks in delicate volatile aromatics.

Why Choose Silver Fox Cafe

Distinctive breakfast recipes, specialty espresso engineering, and a peaceful garden retreat define the Silver Fox experience.

  • Eggs Benedict on Flaky Croissant

    The kitchen updates classic brunch staples by serving poached eggs and creamy hollandaise on a toasted croissant with balsamic drizzle and rich toppings.

    The Eggs Benedict on a croissant was a standout, with perfectly poached eggs, creamy hollandaise, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze that added a unique twist.

  • Flavor-Forward Mediterranean Brunch

    Dishes like Baba's Bowl and Ajvar chilli eggs bring Mediterranean depth and inventive spices rarely found in standard suburban breakfast menus.

    They’re unlike the typical cafe food you’d get and this had more Mediterranean flavours.

  • Quiet Garden Courtyard Retreat

    Extending past the indoor hallway, the rear terrace provides a peaceful, weather-protected garden setting away from street-level traffic.

    less noisy given its long hallway leading to a garden area.

  • All-Weather Outdoor Dining

    The covered back courtyard lets diners enjoy natural daylight and garden surroundings regardless of rain or cooler temperatures.

    sat at the outdoor back area which was very nice, it was bright but sheltered so it wasn’t too cold either.

  • Innovative Paragon Coffee Extraction

    Specialized equipment including chilled-metal-ball Paragon extraction and high-end grinders delivers extraction precision and distinct aromatic brightness.

    The espresso is extracted over a “gold”, cold metal ball, which modifies the volatile compounds sufficiently to produce a far superior espresso.

  • Swift Service During Peak Hours

    Even during peak long weekend rushes and busy Sunday lunches, orders leave the kitchen promptly with attentive table service.

    Even during a very busy peak period, the service was incredibly quick, with our food coming out so fast.

Beyond the menu

Distinctive service rituals, innovative preparation methods, and spatial nuances experienced at Silver Fox Cafe.

  • Paragon Cold-Ball Espresso Extraction

    Espresso shots are extracted over a chilled metal ball using a dedicated Paragon system alongside commercial precision grinders to elevate taste profiles.

  • Toasted Croissant Benedict Base

    Eggs Benedict swaps traditional English muffins for a toasted croissant base paired with avocado and balsamic glaze.

  • Chef-Led Table Hospitality

    The kitchen team personally steps out to check on guests, pour water, and serve plates directly to the table.

  • Weather-Sheltered Garden Terrace Retreat

    A long hallway extends past the front dining room to a bright, weather-sheltered outdoor terrace that buffers patrons from main strip bustle.

Before you head over

Helpful pointers on seating, pacing, and ordering for your visit

  • Head to the rear courtyard for quiet seating

    Follow the hallway past the busy front dining space to find the covered garden terrace, providing a quiet, weather-sheltered spot away from Morts Road street noise.

  • Rely on quick turnaround for tight schedules

    If you are visiting between appointments or on a tight schedule, order fast-moving signatures like the Eggs Benedict on croissant; the kitchen turns plates out promptly even during busy rushes.

  • Customize your milk preference for specialty drinks

    If ordering tea, coffee, or milk-based drinks like matcha, specify your preferred milk type such as oat milk early on so the delicate flavours are not overpowered by standard full-cream milk.
