Running a café as parents changes the way you think about hospitality. At Dad and the Frog Café, we’ve built a local hub in Surry Hills where families feel genuinely welcome—from pram parking to kid-friendly nooks to water bowls for your four-legged bestie. If you’re searching for a Surry Hills cafe that nails breakfast, brunch, coffee, and a relaxed lunch, you’re in the right place.

Parenting is hard enough, sleepless nights, unpredictable routines, and the constant juggle of adjusting to your infant’s ever-changing body clock. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is stop, reset, and give yourself a moment to breathe. That’s where we come in.

Spring in Sydney is always special, but this year it feels extra exciting. With the Sydney Marathon bringing thousands of runners and visitors from around the globe, our little corner in Surry Hills is buzzing again. As a registered local business with the City of Sydney, we’re proud to be part of this international event and even prouder to welcome new and familiar faces through our doors.
