Ordered the zucchini fritter and the omelette. The fritter was very oily, when you chew it in your mouth you can feel the oil soak into your mouth. The chorizo was also a bit hard. The omelette was quite basic.The only thing I really liked was the toast and the fresh orange juice.
For me it’s always exciting to find a place serving really good and tasty salad. I ordered the one with quinoa, cauliflower and stuff, and I even added grilled chicken and poached eggs on top. I have to say it tastes like heaven! I couldn’t remember that I had any salad in my life tasted as good as that.
Eugene’s is an absolute gem! The interior is gorgeous! Not like so many cafes around that lack soul and follow a prescribed formula – this place is a true original. But it doesn’t stop with the decor – the food is fresh and creative. I had the green salad and it was delish! Coffee was bang on… Will be back to try everthing else!
Eugene’s at Bronte My friend and I went today to experience what others has experienced here. We have noticed Eugene’s at Bronte bad the best coffee, brownies and egg benedict. Its true when you experienced it. I could see people non stop coming to get take away coffee Price was reasonable and the portion was big enough for my tummy to easily filled. Hipsters Fritters and Magic Mushroom were our favourite for (now); wanted to try the infamous pancake but no more room. Should try next time and def be back soon!
Just down the road from Three Blue Ducks, in the opposite direction of Bronte Beach, is a lesser-known, hidden gem. Eugenes still has the same focus on high quality, seasonal produce that Three Blue Ducks does, yet you wont require a highly strategic game plan to get a table, nor the same amount of cashola.Eugenes breakfast game is strong. Ive had the hipster fritters, which means I now vote Greens, wear plaid and am growing a beard. LOLs aside, the patties of quinoa, feta and zucchini, served with la boqueria chorizo, poached eggs, guacamole, kale and chamoy, were quite delicious. The Double Roasters coffee is also on point.With a ceiling rose, marble tables and sconce lights, the place is a study in Art Deco style. Its also incredibly small, meaning its cosy and you sit intimately close to strangers. If you intend on discussing over breakfast the details for a jewellery heist or Tim Worner-style affair, probably best you find somewhere else. On a hot summers day, youre going to want to hope youve worn Rexona. Although the breeze coming through the front bi-fold doors might save you.Dont leave before raiding the cabinet of take-home salads, cakes, lasagne, quiches and pies. All very gourmet. Oh and if youre wondering, like I was, Eugene is a real life person. eatplaylovetravel.com.au
This cafe is very popular in Bronte – more so for the breakfast options rather than lunch. The decor is inviting and it is a comfortable space if you are solo. I would recommend it for somewhere to work from during the day however if there are a few tables filled it can be very noisy. The coffee was nice and will suit those who like it creamy. If you like your coffee strong you will want to order a double shot. I went for the smashed avo with a side of spicy chorizo. This had a large serving of avocado and feta which was seasoned heavily with lemon. This dish could be improved with fresh tomatoes or dukkah. The la boqueria chorizo had a good amount of spice. My girlfriend went for the hipster fritters which for $22 gets you two poached eggs, toast, kale salad, chorizo, guacamole and 4 fritters filled with quinoa, zucchini and feta. It is great value however the fritters do need to be paired with the guacamole as they are lacking on their own. All of the meals coming out of the kitchen are beautifully presented and you could certainly sit back at Eugenes and watch the beach goers walk by for the best part of the morning. As you go to pay feel free to treat yourself to some of the delicious looking sweets including the Belgian chocolate and walnut brownie
Visited Eugenes expecting very large things. Unfortunately, Eugene’s did not meet my expectation. Upon arriving, we were seated next to a couple who had brought two of their dogs with them and were cradling them up as though they were their children. The dogs were pretty close to us and sneezed a bit which grossed me out quite a bit while we were eating- but, it is another ‘pet friendly’ cafe around the Bronte area. The service here was OK. I ordered the magic mushroom dish which was quite nice, however, the friend I visited with ordered the pie which was not freshly made and was a bit bland. The food here is not too bad and, for the area, it’s one of the better cafes, however, I just couldn’t get past the actual dining experience and hated being surrounded by pooches. Since I’ve heard so much about this place, I could have been unlucky and visited on an off day but the atmosphere of this place is really what let it down…I didn’t feel like I could enjoy my meal at all. I miss the days where people could visit a cafe without having to bring their furry friends along.
