The Golden Hours at Dad and the Frog Café
There’s a time of day at our Surry Hills café that regulars have come to love — we call it The Golden Hours.
From mid-morning through lunch, the sun finds its way down our laneway, warming up the alfresco area and garden space just right. It’s that sweet spot where time slows down, the coffee hits just right, and our team is in the groove serving up your favourite breakfast, brunch, and lunch dishes.
A Café Built Around Connection
For the past three years, Dad and the Frog Café has been a little pocket of sunshine for the local community. Whether you're catching up with friends, ducking out for a solo lunch break, or easing into the weekend with a leisurely brunch, this space has become a go-to for those moments of connection and calm.
Every morning, we set up our outdoor garden with intention. Clean tables, fresh water bowls for your pups, and the smell of great coffee in the air. Our crew knows how to bring that relaxed, welcoming energy — always casual, always attentive, never too much.
Why Locals Call Us the Best Café in Surry Hills
We’ve been lucky to be called one of the best cafés in Surry Hills — not just for our menu (though the chilli scrambled eggs, eggs on the run, crispy hash browns, and avocado & feta have their loyal fans), but because of how people feel when they visit. It’s not just about the food — it’s the vibe, the warm sun on your skin, and a team that genuinely cares.
If you're looking for a place to reset, refuel, and reconnect, our golden hours are your golden ticket.
Make the Most of the Sun
