Charming
Neighbourhood gem
Vegetarian-friendly

Now walk-ins only for Brunch, with Dinner bookings from 5pm & all day Sunday

Evelyn’s is an easy-going local restaurant serving brunch classics by day and refined, small plates by night. With the kitchen centred around a charcoal Inka grill, live fire cooking adds personality to the dishes, taking inspiration from Levantine and Pan-asian favourites. A go-to for the local neighbourhood and travellers alike, the food is seasonal and humble while the intimate setting ensures that the focus is on the food and experience. Evelyn’s accepts bookings for Dinner (from 17:00) and all day Sunday (full roast menu), with Brunch operating on a walk-in basis.

Below Evelyn’s, The Daisy is a Parisian Pigalle-inspired bar with local resident DJs playing every weekend. Enjoy 20% off your bill pre- or post-dinner when you show your reservation. Expect late-night escapism with a plush, loft party energy and a refined drinks menu. The Daisy welcomes walk-ins, but booking is highly recommended.

The place was a bit small and it was extremely loud. There were other empty tables, but the waiter decided to place us right next to two other customers where they were literally screaming their heads off. I booked my table in advance and they put us in this really bad spot. I would not visit again.

We had a fab visit here - and we would 100% recommend to anyone. We came Sunday morning and ordered the chicken sando & eggs royal and it was incredible! So nicely presented and tasted AMAZING! The aesthetic of the restaurant is stunning too - it’s such a lovely place to sit and I will definitely be visiting again!

I normally love Evelyn’s and often choose it as a brunch or lunch spot but left feeling pretty disappointed. The food didn’t seem as good as other wise (coffee was great). But, we were asked to leave our table only 1 hour 10 minutes after the original time of our booking, before we’d finished our drinks. If it was busy & we’d overrun our time, I’d be completely understanding- but being asked to leave before we finished our drinks and 20 minutes before we were supposed to leave felt pretty unwelcoming.
