About The Wren Courtyard

Set in a converted heritage house on High Street, this bustling cafe serves up hearty all-day breakfast plates in leafy courtyards and art-lined rooms. Regulars head straight for the plant-filled back terrace or snag a sidewalk table in the sun. The kitchen plates serious morning staples—notably the towering Mighty Murray big breakfast and stacks of banana crunch pancakes—backed by a dedicated separate prep line that gives coeliac diners genuine peace of mind. Four-legged companions get greeted with dog biscuits at the door, while tables fill fast with zucchini fritters, hot breakfast wraps, and strong house espresso.

  • Dedicated gluten-free preparation: A separate kitchen prep station ensures safe, cross-contamination-conscious meals for coeliac diners.
  • Converted house setting: Choose between a leafy, covered garden courtyard, sunny front footpath seats, or upstairs dining framed by local art.
  • Pet-friendly courtyard: Canine guests are welcomed into the undercover courtyard with complimentary house dog treats.
