5 Great little cafe serving good coffee n food. Had the special (bacon and egg roll with coffee) upsized to large coffee. Bacon and egg roll was delicious. Plenty of bacon, 2 eggs and a lovely fresh breadroll. Plenty to choose from on the menu n very reasonably priced. Highly recommend.
5 Fernz cafe at st Mary's was a very pleasurable experience. Scott was very friendly and the coffee and food is to die for. It's a clean hygienic happy place to be. I have been coming here now to fernz cafe for 6 months and I'm greeted with open arms and a friendly hello everytime. THIS IS THE BEST COFFEE SHOP ON THE WEST!!! AAA+++
5 I'm a regular to Fernz. It's a great little cafe in St Mary's. Staff are friendly and accommodating. It's small but enough table for groups up to 4 available with outside seating an options. They have a small menu, but means they can deliver on good food. Coffee is on point with lots of options available to taste.
5 Super friendly and the food is to die for. Made it our weekly Saturday morning breakfast spot.
5 Fernz is my favourite local cafe. The food is awesome - we especially love the grilled chicken sandwich & their smashed avo on toast. Their prices are fair and reasonable for such large portions! Their coffee is amazing, and they have great quality non-dairy milk options available I.e., Bonsoy and Milk Lab. The atmosphere is light and airy where you can watch Queen St from inside and out. Lovely customer service too. I can’t recommend this place enough!
4 So I found this little spot on Queen St, St Marys. Greeted on arrival. Clean and well maintained. Old school vibes. Plenty of seating inside and out. I ordered the big breakfast where I started with a coffee. I actually spilt it half way through where staff quickly came out, cleaned it up and replaced it free of charge. Very friendly staff there. Breaky came out on a large plate which made the meal look smaller in the pic. Although presentation could use some work, it was delicious and fulfilling. Simple when done well can still go a long way in my books. To add, it was the cheapest big breakfast I’ve had in Sydney. Let me know what you think if you’re ever in the area. Thanks Fernz! See you again soon
