About Carport Cafe

Tucked down a residential side street in Cannon Hill, Carport Cafe trades commercial bustle for a leafy courtyard hideaway. Morning regulars claim mismatched tables beneath overhanging palms and tree shade, ordering at the counter before settling in. The kitchen bypasses stingy cafe portions with oversized, hearty staples—think stacks of sourdough piled high with avocado and feta, eggs benedict blanketed in warm hollandaise, or spiced mince alongside house-made bircher muesli. Cold-pressed juices, iced coffees, and thickshakes roll out steadily to unhurried tables filled with weekend chatter and sleepy dogs.

  • Leafy garden hideaway: Diners sit among climbing vines, potted greenery, and eclectic mismatched seating tucked off a quiet side street.
  • Hearty, oversized serves: Known for hefty breakfast plates, from piled avocado sourdough to generous eggs benedict.
  • Easy counter service: Counter ordering keeps table turnover breezy and visits welcoming for dogs, kids, and weekend groups.

  • Hidden secret garden setting

    Entering from the suburban street opens into a lush, shaded garden hideaway featuring canopy trees and outdoor seating.

    From the street you can’t see very much, but when you enter it opens up to a large garden area.
