Poached Breakfast Cafe Rawai
When it comes to high quality and specialty coffee in Rawai, you might not think of Poached Breakfast Cafe Rawai right away. But, you should. We take our coffee as seriously as a heart attack and we pride ourselves on our coffee knowledge and quality.
We have an extensive coffee list on our Aussie inspired menu that aims to please all you caffeine connoisseurs out there. We test our coffee daily to ensure you’re getting the very best cup every single time.
If it’s an exceptional specialty coffee in Rawai that you’re after, you’re gonna want to check out some of our delicious drinks starting with our iced orange espresso. The sweetness and tartness of the orange juice blend perfectly with the depth of our espresso – it’s well worth a try.
Of course we’ve got the delicious Italian style affogato – a scoop of vanilla ice cream, topped with warm espresso. Somewhere between a dessert and a coffee, this drink is delicious and is popular in Italy for a reason. Grazie mille for this one Italia!
Last, but certainly not least, we’ve got the ‘After Eight Iced Cappuccino’. For those of you who love those famous choc-mint treats that somehow taste exactly like Christmas, this is the drink for you! It’s a refreshing, familiar and playful specialty coffee in Rawai that you will fall in love with. We just can’t stop ordering them!
Now, there’s nothing like a super duper breakfast to go with that specialty coffee in Rawai, and we have all the breakfast treats you could dream of.
For those of you who love a bit of a healthier breakfast, we’ve got our Prana Chai Granola Parfait, tucked into a little glass and served with fresh yoghurt, fruit and berries. Of course we have our homemade kiwi and coconut muesli with berries, yoghurt and Manuka honey – there’s nothing like the taste of homemade, am I right? Don’t forget to try our quinoa power porridge or our chia seed pudding. Both of these are packed with nutrients, protein, gut healthy ingredients and, most of all, FLAVOUR.
If you like your breakfast ‘egg-centric’, that’s kind of our jam. ‘Poached’ – it’s in the name, isn’t it? We’ve got your breakfast classics like the bacon and egg roll, house eggs your way, Big Al’s Brekky (which is basically just a fried breakfast, Aussie style). But we’ve also got some fun alternatives that you’re going to want to try!
Try our breakfast burrito with spicy sausage, smokey scrambled eggs, zingy Monterey Jack cheese and a tomato and avo salsa. Arriba! We’ve got some fantastic sweet potato and zucchini fritters topped with smashed avo, tomato chutney and a poached egg.
Of course, we can’t talk eggs without mentioning our customer favourite: the pulled pork eggs benny. This is my personal favourite. Picture this: slow cooked pulled pork shoulder that falls apart in your mouth, 2 creamy poached eggs, rich and zippy apple cider hollandaise and tart green apple slaw, all loaded on top of a slice of our homemade sourdough bread. It’s perfectly balanced, totally decadent and, trust me, you’ll be dreaming of it for weeks after you’ve eaten it!
If none of this has been up your alley, we’ve got waffles, French toast, burgers, salads, sandwiches and more which we serve all day long. Our menu has the best tension of healthy and hearty, sweet and savoury, filling and light. Oooh and don’t forget to order a serve of our warm banana bread. It’s the best thing you’ll eat on this island, I promise you that – and it’s a great accompaniment to a specialty coffee in Rawai.
