Mascot locals need not stray far from home for a caffeine fix and mouth-watering eats with Bourke & Hare sitting proudly on Church Avenue. This brightly lit, popular locale is filled with a welcoming ambiance, fitted out minimalistically with rustic recycled timbers, brick accents and mesmerising wall art, along with their emblazoned motto ‘Enjoy the Little Things.’ So, best to enjoy a special blend of Reuben Hills coffee in the alfresco dining area, while the little ones entertain themselves in the play area right next door, and watch the Chefs prepare scrumptious breakfast dishes of buttermilk pancakes with mixed berries, coulis and whipped cream or something heartier like the roti benedict - panko crumbed poached eggs with smoked bacon and Sriracha hollandaise.
