🍳 Morning Plates
Near Penn Station, office workers and locals queue for Australian boutique coffee and a brisk breakfast. The kitchen turns out ricotta toast with figs, avocado toast, shakshuka, and precisely cooked soft-boiled eggs. That gives you a short menu path from a light plate to a more filling order, with the fig and ricotta toast as the clear starting point.
Hosts pass menus outside during the brief line, then fast service gets people moving. Inside, the room is compact and suits smaller groups. The cafe serves daily from 8 AM to 3 PM, and the kitchen closes 30 minutes earlier, while takeout coffee runs until 3 PM for a last cup on the way out.
Find it at 441 9th Ave Suite 101. The quick pace works well for a morning stop, and the Australian coffee gives the breakfast menu its own accent. Arrive with a small crew, grab a seat, then let the hosts guide the order from there and finish with a coffee to go.
