The Grounds of Alexandria is always busy, especially on the weekend so we were happy that we were able to get a table in the cafe fairly quickly as we'd just picked up a very hungry teen from the airport. Food was tasty as expected for the price but nothing to really rave about and the cakes were a feast for the eyes (though really too much buttercream). The downside was that we had to ask several times for a menu, my husband's meal came significantly after the rest of the mains, we ended up getting our own water as it never showed even after asking multiple times; even taking into consideration that the wait-staff was busy, we felt a bit neglected overall. However, the decorations and ambiance of the venue is fantastic.
It is one of the best places I have been to in Sydney! The atmosphere, service and food is lovely! Love how it is pet friendly as well. I visited it with my hub, parents and fur babies (a husky and a cat). Evah who served us was exceptional. She was so kind and lovely! Definitely a 10/10 visit!!
Been here a few times, amazing location, amazing food, amazing atmosphere. Different zones and areas to enjoy. Had breakfast in the Cafe, was exceptional. Had the breakfast tacos and the bircher museli, and a very smooth coffee. They currently have a Mexican theme, and it's executed very well. Plenty to entertain kids, a lot of seating available. You can bring dogs into the venue (cats too apparently!)
It's always nice to stop in every now and again.
Weekends are busy, but just after lunch is the best time to get a seat... you just have to hope the cakes haven't sold out!
Great coffee, nice atmosphere, and excellent deserts. Lunch isn't bad and worth a try of you are peckish

I absolutely love the story of The Grounds, the concept of having something very green and farm-like in the middle of such an industrial suburb.
The food itself is very good and not too expensive (but certainly not cheap either).
Loved the Christmas decorations and walk as well (despite the crowd!). The Christmas pastries were excellent.

Great photo spot within Sydney area. Always beautiful decorations, lots of visitors. Love the coffee! Dog friendly is a bonus! Love to get back there sometime with my pooch🐩. For wedding reception here, it will look so elegant and vintage, feel like a princess in the enchanted forest👰👸!
The place was so nice! You can have brunch, take photos here. They will change the themes from time to time. In January 2024, they still decorated in a Christmas theme.
The food here was normal but the coffee was fantastic. The prices here were on average.
They provided breakfast, lunch and take away menu. Take away food are more cheaper!!!!
Last but not the least!!!
Card payment will be charged 1.5% extra!

Incredible atmosphere 👏
Service good, but felt rushed during our meal. Our food showed up intermittently, with three plates arriving - one not showing up until making our waitress aware.
Food was presented beautifully, however the consensus on the table was food was only warm.
The entire experience is beautifully presented, there has been no expense spared with interior design and plants wall to wall.
Going in the afternoon, midweek is a must to beat the crowds.
You need to dine in, in order to walk the candy lane at Christmas 🎄
Recommended spend per person is:
Adults $30pp
Children $15pp
