Coogee Courtyard

Coogee Courtyard is a relaxed and welcoming spot tucked just off the busy Coogee high street. It’s a great choice for brunch with friends or family, offering good coffee and a chilled atmosphere close to the beach. ☕ Coffee: Well made with neat latte art and smooth flavour. Their more premium coffee options were also good value for money. 🍳 Food: The menu covers all the classic Australian brunch staples — everything was tasty and well-prepared, though nothing particularly stood out as exceptional. 😊 Staff: Everyone was friendly and helpful when they came by, but service felt a bit disorganised. We had to flag down staff several times for ordering, napkins, and cutlery, and noticed a few other tables in the same situation. 🌿 Decor & atmosphere: Hidden amongst bustling shops, it opens into a surprisingly large and airy space with a relaxed vibe. It’s a calm escape from the bustle of Coogee’s main strip. 🚶 Location: Super convenient if you’re spending time in Coogee — just a short walk from the beach and surrounded by shops and cafes. Parking, however, is very limited nearby. 🧒 Kid-friendliness: Well set up for families, with highchairs available and a dedicated kids’ menu. Overall, a lovely spot for a casual brunch in Coogee — I’d happily return every now and then for the relaxed vibe.

Always great food and service! Plus can we order coffee on the skip app to avoid the queue. Coffee always yummy and has freckles with it, great to keep the kids happy and the affectionately known it as 'the freckle cafe'.

What a great relaxed atmosphere this one had and the plants throughout added an extra level of privacy. Very welcoming, food, drinks and service were excellent too.

A nice beachside cafe. We ordered chicken sandwich, chicken pita pockets (both well filled) and coffee, it was really nice. It's quite spacious with indoor settings. The staffs are also nice.

We ordered Steak Sandwich and Cheeseburger. On arrival the burger patty looked disappointing as it was one smashed burger patty (contrary to "Juicy beef patty" in description), while Steak Sandwich looked promising - so we decided to share half half. While the burger delivered what it looked like, the steak sandwich was chewy and raw in portions. So I suggest that owner goes either reconsiders prices or addresses the food. There were many staff on the floor, a bit more than necessary, so perhaps cut a bit on service cost - as its a cafe, and focus on better portions. I understand its Coogee and rent are not cheap, but still - unless you are stuck on beach hungry, its not justified.
