Two Chaps

Overview

Two Chaps is one of the best things you'll find behind a garage roller door in Sydney. The Chapel Street cafe has a strong following among vegetarians and pastry lovers, and for good reason — everything on the menu is vego and the kitchen bakes all its own bread and pastries. Plus, almost everything can be done vegan or gluten-free.

There are two menus on offer, the day menu and the Two Chaps night menu. The day menu features pastries, brioche burgers — such as the spiced pumpkin version with onion jam, mint coconut yogurt, and pickled beetroot — as well as a seasonal salad bowl and eggs on sourdough. For drinks, there are a range of coffees and teas to choose from and an array of cold drinks, including smoothies, cold brew and a fruity frappe, if you're feeling fancy.

You can drop by and purchase the aforementioned baked goods each day — along with one of three daily sandwich options — or sit in for what is one of Sydney's best brunches. Keep in mind — the cafe kitchen closes at 2:30pm daily.

Alternatively, the night menu features a set dinner menu, alongside vegan and gluten-free alterations. Think stracciatella with grilled radicchio; handmade polenta with porcini sauce and rosemary oil; and cauliflower gratin with confit leek and pangrattato.  For dessert, the roast banana mille-feullie and the mandarin granita are the perfect way to end a satisfying meal. For vegan and gluten free alternatives the friendly staff will guide you through the ever changing options.

The set menu requires reservations, so make sure to book either the 6pm or 8:15pm time slots. There is also a BYO policy with a small corkage fee.
