Book NowAbout The Vernon Coffee
Beans roasted right on the floor every morning make this Woollahra corner spot a standout for your daily caffeine run. Regulars drop by on morning dog walks for expertly pulled shots and warm banter—orders often started before anyone speaks. The kitchen sticks to simple staples done well: bacon and egg rolls, Iggy’s bread, and daily baked muffins. Grab a sunny outdoor seat curbside and pick up a bag of whole beans roasted on site before you go.
- On-site daily coffee roasting: The team roasts their own beans on premises daily, tailoring lighter roasts for clean, balanced extraction.
- No surcharge for non-dairy milk: Alternative milks and non-standard options like decaf come without the usual pricing penalty.
- Sunlit, dog-friendly street patio: Sidewalk seating catches morning sun, welcoming leashed dogs during neighborhood strolls.
