AI Summary

Family-run CBD cafe near Southern Cross Station, open from 6am, famed for its steak sandwich.

A small, quiet side-street cafe with a genuine family-run feel, run by the Lau brothers, offering both grab-and-go counter service and limited seating.

Open from 6am on weekdays, lactose-free milk available, BYO cups accepted, and a solid grab-and-go range of bagels, muffins and focaccias.

Classic Australian cafe breakfast fare rather than a specific cultural cuisine - the drawcard is the family-run feel, not heritage cooking.

Strong value - reviewers repeatedly call it reasonably priced for CBD breakfast, with most meals in the mid-teens to low-$20s, though a couple flag pricier items like the $28 avocado toast.
