About Pixie And The Hawk

Pixie And The Hawk brings playful, high-wire cooking and serious coffee to Torrensville without an ounce of CBD posturing. Run hands-on by Emma and Rhys Davis—Rhys running the room while Emma works the kitchen—the space feels like a plant-filled living room with a soundtrack you will want to Shazam. The draw is an irreverently named menu that rivals Melbourne's best morning spots. Travelers regularly fixate on 'Everyday I'm Trufflin'—a charred, soft potato rosti stacked with sweet onion jam, crispy kale chips, and a crunch of saltbush dukkah. For sweet-meets-savory, pancakes arrive topped with buttermilk chicken and rich red curry butter. Pair them with a Five Senses pour or an oat mocha.

  • Inventive Brunch Plates: Pun-named plates pairing unexpected flavors, like buttermilk chicken pancakes with red curry butter and potato rosti with saltbush dukkah.
  • Specialty Coffee Focus: Carefully pulled Five Senses espresso and balanced oat mochas that consistently outpace typical cafe standards.
  • Hands-On Hospitality: Cozy, plant-filled Torrensville space hosted personally by founders Emma and Rhys Davis with curated background playlists.
