Best of Woollahra – Cafe Parterre
If you haven’t had a chance to pop in to the new Cafe Parterre, you need to now! I am loving the new cafe and can’t get enough of their delicious fresh bread and fantastic coffee – and lets not even start with the perfect peaceful space surrounded by everything beautiful!
Recently featured in Broadsheet: “Parterre specialises in antique objects that Haigh sources from flea markets and dealers in Europe. It’s all one-offs: one day there might be French windows from the 19th century or a zinc farmhouse table, the next day something completely different. The cafe occupies the courtyard behind the shop. There’s heated outdoor seating and a communal table inside a glasshouse that was imported from Belgium.

The menu has a small selection of breakfast items – Bircher muesli, avocado with herbs on toast, a breakfast salad with smoked salmon – and tartines (toasted sandwiches) for lunch. The croque monsieur with Dijon mustard, béchamel, gruyère and leg ham is a French classic, but of the other tartines, Owner -Haigh says, “the Australian version of French cuisine is more relaxed.” That means customers can order their chicken, celery, honey, almond tartine, or their tomato, basil, mozzarella tartine without the bread. Although with bread from Organic Bread Bar, you probably don’t want to do that.”
Definitely a must to visit for a lovely relaxed lunch or even just a coffee with friends!
