Fact-Tree Cafe

Ordered eggs bene and mocha — absolutely superb. This was truly a hidden gym in Sunnynook. Eggs bene was served on hashbrowns and had bacon, mushrooms and pouched eggs with hollandaise sauce. Large meal, good value ($ 17) and very tasty.
Mocha was nice and chocolatey, just the way I like it. Not bitter at all, and complemented the meal very well.
Friendly staff
Highly recommend this place.

This is such a cute café, in such a random suburban spot!
Came here for a weekday brunch has my friend and I happened to both have the same day off. She loved this place as its her local so we headed down around 11am, it was pretty busy for weekday which was good but surprising. We snagged a table inside next to the counter. The décor is cute, fresh and light.
Service was really nice and were asked for our coffee orders right away. Looking over the menu was hard as there were so many options that looked amazing. I decided to go for the salmon eggs Benedict on homemade hash brown as that hash brown sounded so good. My friend grabbed the chorizo omelette. The food took its time to arrive, but we were ok to wait as we had nothing planned for the day, maybe just something note!
The food was delicious, and huge servings. The hash browns were my favourite part of the dish because they were so crunchy — definitely recommend trying those! The omelette looks massive and also came with some ciabatta bread.
Overall the café was really good, a little slow. I will definitely be back!

My friend lives a short stroll from here so it was more out of convenience that we turned up but glad we did! The menu is so nice and simple — think smashed avo on toast, French toast option, muesli option, eggs any style which means you can get what you want without compromising. Coffee was slightly tangy? Not sure about that but was still drinkable. Lost one star for that unfortunately. The service was top notch.
The little details really counted here. Cute teaspoons and garnish on the cabinet food and attentive service really made it a stand out and I will be back!

Fact-​tree café is an unassuming, neighbourhood café located in a random block of shops right smack-​bang in the middle of North Shore surburbia. You’d never know it was there unless, well, you knew it was there.
Décor-​wise it’s pretty cute. A big wooden tree that doubles as shelves spans one of the walls, the coffee comes with heart-​shaped teaspoons and they’ve got terrariums with plastic dinosaurs on the tables.
The vibe is upbeat and friendly. You get the feeling that it’s a favourite amongst locals and given it’s size, would be packed on the weekend.
As for the food, they’ve got an extensive brunch & lunch menu handwritten on those cool paper rollers. Unfortunately I was running short on time so I opted for their bacon and vege stack to takeaway. It came heated with a generous pottle of homemade tomato chutney. Flavour-​wise, it was nothing new but it was pretty damn tasty.
I’m not 100% sold on the location (…yet) but the breakfast menu looks to good not to head back for a lazy weekend brunch!

Had the eggs benedict and a spicy chai. Good cosy café. The eggs bene was on a fried potato hash. A good difference to most other cafes.

Great coffee, devine shakes, great food and delish deserts! I love this Café :)
Although parking can be a real pain during peak times but don’t let that stop you!

This place is truly local, you would be hard pressed to know it was here if someone hadn’t told you. It’s also changed hands since the first owners. They’ve made a few changes — the comfy couches have been reduced to one, replaced by another long communal table and stools, and the décor has lost some of it’s slick coolness. That said, it’s still a great spot in the suburbs to meet friends. There’s a good choice of cabinet food, along with a brunch/​lunch menu. We had the chorizo frittata, perfectly good but not ‘hot’ as we had asked for.

The food here is generous, fresh and delicious. The service is also friendly but sometimes slow (walked in past a waitress looking at me but had to grab my own menu at the back of the room and seat myself haha oh well)
my extremely late «brunch» companion ordered their equivalent to the «big breakfast» and it was stacked beautifully and looked amazing. I ordered the vegetarian breakfast as i was fairly sick and couldn’t stomach meat or its fatty oils (cries) but it was cooked so well and the poached eggs were perfection, everything was flavoured well and the portions were so big we had to rest there for awhile after finishing our meals.
I ordered a spicy soy chai latte because i usually LOVE the spiciness of it but this one they served must have had some cray cray chai to soy milk ratio because it burnt my throat and i still feel it a couple of minute later too. I took my drink to the front counter and asked them gently (because i hate asking for changes) if my drink was double or triple shot of chai. indicating it was extremely spicy. they kept insisting to top up my milk but i was a bit difficult and thought that wouldn’t dial down the spiciness (as i only drank a few sips) so asked for a sweet chai instead. They willingly gave me a new drink which i am so thankful for and so i award them a 5 star.
When i worked at the café i would rather the customers walk away happy rather than unhappy with their order (s)… and that’s what these guys did. Thanks Fact-​Tree! definitely coming back and recommending others to come here (but maybe stay away from the spicy chai haha)

Holy Crap! This place was so good I almost wrote this review before I’d finished eating. We were on a rare trip to the shore and stumbled upon this café by accident… Prompt service and the food was out to our table in less than ten minutes. We ordered two of the fact tree breakfasts, and an amazing date and almond smoothie. The food was well presented, and plentiful. The café made great use of the space and the tables were incredibly clean. Overall an excellent café, many inner city places could learn a thing from Fact Tree!

A huge fan of Fact-​Tree! Love all of it– the food, interior and space.
Came for a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon and scored a lucky park– as almost all of them were filled. Was taken aback by how full the inside was– all the tables taken and only one outside table left! Never had to wait list for a café before! Lucky it wasn’t too cold or rainy that the outside table worked.
Fell in love with their entire All day breakfast and Lunch menu. Everything in the cabinet looked yum and they had a wide range on the Drinks menu. Friend & I ordered things out of the cabinet and shared– we had a great beef lasagne and chicken mushroom risotto cake which both came with salads and a tomato sauce/​salsa on long clean white flat plates. Beautifully presented! Shared the lemon cupcake, which was very frosted in white with almond flakes on top and sour yogurt to dip with. Nice!
Ordered the unique– Date, banana, almond smoothie which was such a good choice. Came in a decent sized glass jar– very filling and had a cool white spiral in the centre with chunky almond or date bits. Excellent flavours– definitely need to try their other smoothies! Friend received the cutest heart shaped spoon with her hot chocolate, which we were thrilled about. Never seen anything of the like.
They have great seating– small outdoor tables with colourful folding metal chairs, couches indoors with long tables as well as standard tables with seats. Neat wall of shop items at the back, behind the counter and decorations along the wall. Neat wood cut coasters and random facts attached to the smoothie jars and sugar pot on the table.
Must come back again. Very cool place!

A great little café, tucked away. Good Coffee.
You must try the homemade hashbrowns.
Also get here earlier as it gets really busy and you’ll be waiting for a while to get a seat.

The artwork is very cool at Fact-​Tree Café, as is the interior décor, all designed by Chloe.
Josh and Chloe run this very funky North Shore café in what is now a renovated corner block in a tidy suburb. The café is home to locals for breakfast, brunch, lunch or afternoon catch-​ups. The coffee is amazing, cold drinks are served up in jam jars which I thought was very creative, actually creative is a great descriptive for the café.
Their food is all home made in their kitchen and it is very delicious. Some exceptional brunch choices are Waffles with Apple & Rhubarb and Muzza’s Mini Big Breakfast at Fact-​Tree; I’m loving their eggs Bene on home made hash browns with the yummy addition of spicy beans on toast.
Sweet treats galore, try any one of them they are mouth-​watering.
To me these guys have created a perfect recipe for success.
