Top Paddock
Contemporary
When the coffee bar here is in full swing, it's like the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Grind, grind, grind! Sell, sell, sell! Outside, dozens of dressed to-the-nines brunchers wait patiently on the lawn to land a coveted table in the impeccably designed space. The 5 Senses coffee is served with utmost care, including a house blend, single origins, filter and cold filter options – all excellent. The seasonal menu is right on-trend, from decadent chilli scrambled eggs with earthy mushrooms and goat's curd to sublime blueberry and ricotta hotcakes. Weekends are crazy: even this slickest of operations struggles to cope with the crowds.
