Penny Coffee Co
Dutton Park
Penny Coffee Co is a foodie’s delight, a specialty coffee café serving top-notch fare from its colourful corner location in Dutton Park.
Housed in a formerly abandoned building on Annerley Road, the new owners have transformed the dilapidated shop into a modern, contemporary café. Bench seating and little tables fill the cosy space with additional seating in a small, sunny courtyard.
The all-day menu includes drool-worthy dishes like miso scrambled eggs with salt-baked salmon and coriander, mint and cucumber salad, confit mushrooms with pumpkin hummus on sourdough served with poached egg, grilled haloumi and roast cherry tomatoes, eggs.
Penny with double yolks on smoked paprika potato hash with dill hollandaise and the highly recommended French toast - cinnamon brioche served with poached stonefruit, toasted almonds, chocolate soil and malted honeycomb ice cream.
Coffee on pour includes a house blend by local Parallel Roasters as well as single origins from Light Coffee. Non-coffee drinks can choose from a range of Storm in a Tea Cup teas and tisanes, 9 spice chai, hot chocolate, fresh orange juice and organic soft drinks.
