Art Cafe

You'll spot Art Cafe from across Bonn Square by the constant stream of people clutching proper-sized coffee cups and the inevitable queue snaking out the door during weekend brunch hours. The walls are packed with rotating local artwork that actually changes regularly, giving you something new to stare at while you wait for your mate who's inevitably running late. The coffee here is serious business – they know their beans and aren't afraid to tell you about them. The brunch menu hits all the right notes without trying too hard: think generous portions of eggs Benedict that don't cost a fortune, and pancakes that justify the weekend walk from Jericho. It gets properly rammed on Saturday mornings, but the staff keep things moving without making you feel rushed. Perfect for laptop sessions during quieter weekday afternoons when the tourists have buggered off.
