Cafe 143

Those chasing the perfect microfoam will tell you straight up—Cafe 143 pulls the most consistently dialed-in shots in Bronte. Pouring Mecca beans and slinging a house-made nut milk that absolutely ruins you for anything else, this dog-friendly coastal hangout is a total triumph. Weekend queues get wild, but the barista crew is notoriously sharp. Orders get taken in line—your cap is often waiting before you even hit the till. The food? A tight, killer rotation of daily muffins, brekkie bars, and clever half-bagels. Savoury chasers line up for the legendary pumpkin toasties built on iconic Iggy’s sourdough, elevating local carbs with premium fillings. Toss in a cracking Wednesday market and an impossibly warm staff, and you’ve got the ultimate post-swim ritual.
