TPND is my favorite cafe! I love having this cafe so close to my apartment so I can go everyday. Everything I've ordered from breakfast and brunch to cocktails and coffee has been absolutely delicious. The variety of food offered is extensive and wonderfully presented. The owners and staff are very friendly and attentive. The espresso martini from the Bottomless brunch is one of the best I've ever had, if not THE best. The pancakes are heavenly and I have a dirty chai latte multiple times a week! The pastries are so good. You must try the biscoft cinnamon scroll! Will does fun foam art on the hot drinks and always has a smile for his repeat customers. Sameer is kind and thoughtful, always remembering what I like to order. They're dog-friendly and have a lovely patio overlooking Alexandria park. I cannot recommend this place enough and I look forward to every visit.

Unbelievably good. High quality food. Clearly sourced with care. Prepared perfectly. Gluten free and vegan literate kitchen and staff. 5 star service. Park view. Quiet for the central location (behind main streets but close) lovely decor. Clean lines. Minimal plastic . Scandinavian design style. Music that’s not disruptive/ not the radio/ not echoing pop. All up a classy lunch brunch or snack stop with a Scandinavian casual vibe. Great tea options. Perfect in terms of cafe. There are others but this is gold

Sarah was fantastic with her service! I feel like this is a hidden gem within Sydney’s inner suburbs. If you’re looking for a place to get quite “fun” and enjoy great food, definitely enjoy the bottomless.

Fantastic cafe! Spoiled for choice in the Alexandria area when choosing a place to eat, however, TPND I have to say is the place to go. We've had the full English (includes beans) and the eggs Benedict many times and it's always very tasty, the service is also notch and incredibly friendly! Thoroughly recommend the bottomless brunch too (pictures attached).

I discovered this café two years ago, and it was such a pleasant surprise! The coffee is absolutely delicious, the service is outstanding,always warm and attentive,and the food is an explosion of flavors . The portions are very reasonable for the price. Even though I live in another suburb, I never hesitate to come back for my cappuccino and the chicken, bacon, avo & cheese toast or avo and poached eggs . Thank you, Sameer and Will, for consistently maintaining such high standards in service and quality!

This is hands down my favourite cafe in Alexandria! The service is impeccable with attentive and lovely staff. The atmosphere is perfect and relaxing. There’s both outdoor and indoor seating with views of the park. Will makes a great coffee and the food is excellent. I highly recommend the “bowl” - it’s so delicious and healthy. The chicken burger and smashed avo are also super delicious.
