Absolutely love this place! The coffee is consistently delicious — smooth, rich, and full of flavor. Their food selection is also top-notch, with a great variety that’s always fresh and satisfying. Whether it’s a quick bite or a relaxed meal, they’ve got it covered. Hands down the best coffee shop in the area — nothing else comes close!

Amazing food! I had the pork shred and egg Benedict. Both are very tasty, the egg perfectly cook. Surprising me, I love their ice matcha, will definitely come back next time.

Went here for Sunday brunch, our waitress was fantastic, she was very attentive, but also gave us time to decide what to order. I ordered the avocado smash which was nice, but had way too much avocado, I had to take about 4 tablespoons off for it to be edible. Coffee was amazing, I normally get the jitters from coffee, but this was strong, tasted nice and no jitters! Family had pancakes and the pork sandwich. Pancakes were delicious, pork sandwich had a strange flavour, perhaps the oyster sauce which seemed like a strange sauce for the sandwich

Just lovely! Came early in the morning, was greeted straight away, really generous serving sizes too. Will definitely be back and bring someone to share the massive portions with!! Shout out as well to supplying ham over bacon - a welcome aspect to their menu. Thanks gang - will revisit soon!!

Very happy with the introduction of Thimble Cafe to Lane Cove. I enjoyed it so much on Friday, that I went back on Sunday for a great coffee and a sensational Açai Bowl. Food options are great, coffee is delicious and the staff are lovely.

Amazing staff, service and food! Good job! Note: Milkshake was too weak and 99% milk only
