Food was ok, but expect to get your order for 40min. An old woman asked how was the meal when checked out, I was being super polite and honest to compliment food first then said a bit long wait for the food. Surprisingly, the old waitress with purple dye on hair said in a loud voice, our food are freshly made, so 40min wait is normal 😤. I was hoping she at least apologised for a bit, but this was the attitude I got. After a few hours I still keep thinking of how rude she was. I checked the google rating before going to this cafe and rating 4.5 is really not bad. However, 4 is for the food we had (Cok Madame and Zucchini fritter), and 0 for the old waitress’s attitude. So it’s for sure I’ll never come back again, and i wish you keep the waiting time longer and longer 😂

It is located on the side of the road. Parking is not easy as there are no parking lots around. But, the streets have parking on the sides so during non-peak hours there should be spots. Seating is available inside and outside for more than forty people. Food is really good, they have some signature dishes which are definitely worth trying. Staff are friendly. Service does take some time but not too long either.

Lumiere changed ownership last year. They change menu and chefs. It was a real institution but it is still a good place to go. The location is great, close to Oxford Street in Surry hills. They have a huge terrase with some direct sun mid morning for a few hours. The menu was not online so I am adding it in my review.

Great food and great service. I visited Lumiere Cafe today for brunch and it was fantastic. The food and coffee were great. I ordered an acai bowl and it was delicious. The serving size was a lot bigger than I expected with great selection of fruit. Special thanks to our server Toby, he was absolutely amazing.

Really enjoyed the hotcakes. Thanks a lot. Amazing. Good coffee, and the milkshakes were great.

Appalling serving size with 5 thinly sliced chorizo as per picture. Paid $27 for this dish on ubereats.

My zucchini fitters were the bomb. Served with salmon, poached egg on a bed of rocket and a delicious sauce. Fantastic coffee and selection of cakes. This can be a very busy place. Staff were very efficient. So a big thanks to everyone and our server Tim.. cheers guy's we will be back...

Good atmosphere, friendly service and delicious meal prefect for start a day.
