Whole grain bagel sandwiches—one with smoked salmon and arugula, the other with salami, cheese, and lettuce—served with a glass of dark coffee on a wooden table - showcasing the best coffee and bagels Sydney locals love at Cafe C&M.

Let’s be honest – finding the best coffee and bagels Sydney has to offer isn’t just about good food. It’s about that perfect moment when exceptional coffee meets the ideal bagel, creating something magical that keeps you coming back for more. At Cafe C&M, we’ve spent years perfecting this art across our five Sydney locations, and the results speak for themselves.

Why Cafe C&M Serves the Best Coffee and Bagels Sydney Locals Crave

With locations in Bondi, Rushcutters Bay, Darlinghurst, Peakhurst, and our newest addition Bagels X Brew in Kirrawee, we’ve become Sydney’s go-to destination for coffee and bagel perfection.

“We didn’t set out to be known for having the best coffee and bagels Sydney wide,” explains Ming, co-founder of Cafe C&M. “We just focused on doing two things exceptionally well: sourcing the finest Campos Coffee beans and creating bagels that people actually crave.
