Best Brunch in Darlinghurst: A Local's Guide to Stanley Street

26 April 2026·4 min read

Stanley Street, Darlinghurst is one of Sydney's best dining strips. Here's what makes Cappadocia Cafe stand out — and what to order when you visit.

Darlinghurst has always been one of Sydney's most vibrant dining neighbourhoods, and Stanley Street sits at its heart. If you're looking for something beyond your standard eggs benedict or smashed avo, Cappadocia Cafe offers something genuinely different — a full Turkish and Mediterranean menu with healthy options, specialty coffee and a welcoming atmosphere.

Where Are We?

82-84 Stanley St, Darlinghurst NSW 2010. We're a short walk from Oxford Street, Kings Cross station and the Paddington end of the strip. Look for us between Crown St and Forbes St.

What to Order for Brunch

  • Turkish Breakfast Board ($32) — the full spread. Perfect for sharing or if you want to experience the Turkish breakfast tradition properly.
  • Acai Bowl ($18) — for something light and energising. Blended acai-berry base with seasonal fruits, granola and coconut.
  • Cappadocia Burger ($20) — 150g Angus beef patty, lettuce, tomato, caramelised onions, fried egg and aioli. The non-Turkish option that everyone orders.
  • Falafel Bowl ($24, VG/GF) — for plant-based diners who want something substantial.
  • Chilli Scrambled Eggs ($22) — smashed avo, fermented chilli, mushrooms and roasted tomatoes on sourdough.
  • French Toast ($22) — baked brioche and croissant with lemon curd, white chocolate, vanilla ice cream, cherry jam and fresh fruit.
