Book NowAbout The Bunker Cafe Dulwich Hill
This Dulwich Hill sanctuary pulls serious Campos shots alongside crisp Reuben toasties in an airy, jazz-soundtracked space. Locals treat the light-filled tables as an effortless remote work outpost—tucking into four-hour laptop sessions without anyone hovering. Behind the timber bar, staff dial in double ristretto piccolos, pour housemade strawberry iced matchas, and bag retail beans ground on request for your morning stovetop moka pot. Pair a rich oat flat white with a pressed spinach melt or grab a sunny street-side seat with your dog.
- Work-friendly setup: Spacious layout with acoustic wall treatment welcomes uninterrupted multi-hour laptop sessions alongside bagels and filter coffee.
- Custom retail bean grinds: Staff bag specialty retail beans and grind them in-house to suit home brew methods, from filter to stovetop.
- Dog-friendly outdoor tables: Sunlit street-side seating welcomes pets, complete with a dedicated water bowl for neighborhood walks.
