The Plaza Cafe Bankstown sits comfortably within Bankstown City Plaza, offering a laid-back spot where locals come for solid breakfast options and dependable coffee. This is a cafe that seems to attract a steady flow of morning and midday visitors looking for a casual start or a relaxed catch-up. The interior is clean and welcoming, with staff who appear attentive and well-presented — the kind of place where friendly service blends seamlessly with straightforward, satisfying meals.

Visitors here often come for the breakfast dishes that balance familiar comfort with a touch of variety, like their halloumi-accompanied poached eggs or the Middle Eastern-inspired options such as shakshuka and spiced hummus plates. These meals arrive thoughtfully plated, offering hearty portions that suit those keen on a filling start to their day. Coffee takes a solid lead here; strong and reliably prepared, it complements the breakfasts well and supports those who drop in alone with a laptop or meet friends over a casual weekend brunch.

The cafe delivers a practical setup rather than a trendy aesthetic. It’s especially convenient for locals who want somewhere easy and steady to grab a meal without fuss — the availability of free parking nearby adds to the appeal for those driving in from the suburbs. Kids’ menu items speak to families, making it a sensible weekend spot for parents seeking a place that welcomes children with simple, familiar options.

Early mornings through to mid-afternoon feel like the best times to visit, when the space hums quietly with a mix of solo visitors, friends sharing a breakfast plate, or small groups settling in for a relaxed meal. The presence of diverse breakfast items and a range of fresh smoothies and shakes also adds a subtle vibrancy to the menu, catering to those who want a refreshing start or a sweet treat alongside their coffee.

Overall, The Plaza Cafe ticks the boxes for people who value straightforward, well-made food in a clean and friendly environment. It fits neatly within the local vibe of Bankstown — unpretentious, reliable, and catering to a community that appreciates good food without the pretense or rush often found in busier city cafes.

I am very picky with my food and I Bought the omelette option and the eggs on toast. The food was delicious. (See images) The restaurant was clean and the staff were very friendly, neatly dressed and presentable something which makes a massive difference when food is being handled. Highly recommended and don't worry there's free parking not far from it as well. Highly recommended

Look at these breakfast plates they look incredible, especially the egg Benedict, Middle Eastern breakfast, and Shakshuka! The egg Benedict was perfectly poached with a rich hollandaise, while the Middle Eastern breakfast offers a delightful mix of flavors and textures. And that Shakshuka was off its head! It's makes you want to come back for more. As you can see, the plates are extremely fulfilling, and you're paying a reasonable price for a massive plate of food. Plus, the cup of coffee was the perfect complement, rich and aromatic. I'm already thinking about coming back tomorrow just to enjoy these dishes again – absolutely amazing, keep up the amazing work! Always so welcoming and have the brightest smiles

Great strong coffee and a delicious breakfast. Could have used less dressing on the plate but that may be a cultural thing? Haloumi is definitely worth trying.

The food was next level. My husband and I were blown away at the food, everything was cooked to perfection. I usually don’t order the roasted vegetables from other restaurants due to the taste being slightly off but it was absolutely perfect here. The owners/workers are also great people, really friendly and welcome with open arms.
