About The Flinders Street Project

Tucked into the quiet end of Flinders Street, this corner retreat trades standard morning fare for inventive Asian-fusion cooking beneath a canopy of wooden spoons. Mornings here move without the rush of the central grid. In the open kitchen, the pans sizzle with spicy Korean ramen, bao buns stuffed with soft pork belly, and breakfast dumplings served in fragrant sesame broth. Patrons settle into outdoor tables with dogs and laptops—nursing flat whites while eggs benny arrive topped with shredded ham hock and crisp South East Asian fried onions.

  • Inventive Asian-Fusion Plates: Morning menus detour from the usual cafe circuit with spicy Korean breakfast ramen, soft pork belly bao buns, and dumplings in sesame broth.
  • Wooden Spoon Art Installation: An overhead installation crafted from wooden spoons anchors the dining room, setting an unhurried, art-gallery tempo.
  • Calm East-End Corner: Set along the quieter stretch of the CBD with outdoor seating, dog-friendly tables, and Wi-Fi for remote mornings.

  • Artful Ambience and Bespoke Spoon Installation

    Intricate architectural styling, led by an overhead ceiling sculpture crafted from wooden spoons, complements the cafe's creative food presentation.

    The ceiling caught my eye, made entirely of wooden spoons, crafted into an intricate piece of art.

  • Tranquil Setting Away from CBD Crowds

    Positioned along the quieter end of Flinders Street, the venue provides outdoor and indoor seating with Wi-Fi, making it suitable for unhurried reading or remote work.

    This is the second time I have been here and is a little gem away from the hustle of the main Rundle area and extensions.

  • Peaceful Pockets for Work and Unwinding

    The cafe offers relaxed seating where patrons can comfortably settle in for coffee, read uninterrupted, or park a bicycle outside without street congestion.

    Plenty of seating options here and the street itself is not too busy that you couldn't read a chapter of a book or similar while you take a break.

  • Attentive Table Service and Dish Sharing

    The kitchen and floor team readily tailor plates to patrons sharing dishes and provide thoughtful solutions for distinct dietary preferences.

    The cook came over to ask if we were sharing everything and then made us a plate each of our half of each meal.

  • Seamless Group Breakfast Gatherings

    Friendly staff seamlessly seat groups together and time breakfast orders to arrive in sync, creating a welcoming, stress-free shared morning meal.

    Went with friends and the service was exceptional - staff were patient and coordinated perfectly to serve all our dishes at the same time.

Beyond the menu

Thoughtful touches and unexpected hospitality details that shape your visit

  • Custom Meal Splitting by the Chef

    When guests plan to share their meal, the chef personally checks in and plates individual split portions of each dish rather than serving full plates at staggered times.

  • Sculptural Spoon Ceiling Art

    An eye-catching ceiling installation constructed entirely from wooden spoons hangs overhead, transforming the dining room into an imaginative, gallery-like space.

  • Patio Blankets and Heaters

    Guests dining on the street patio are provided with heaters and cozy blankets to keep comfortable in cooler weather.

  • Attentive Dietary Accommodations

    The kitchen readily tailors breakfast staples to meet dietary requirements, including crafting gluten-free versions of their signature salmon Benedict.
