Best Sydney Suburbs to Open a Café in 2026

Thinking of launching your dream café? Here are the top 5 suburbs in Sydney where demand, foot traffic, and community support are booming.

☕ 1. St Peters

Trendy, artsy, and full of young professionals. Underserved café market near Sydney Park. Locals love to spend on good coffee.

🌿 2. Caringbah South

Affluent suburb, family foot traffic, and no real café scene yet. Plus, loads of new housing = morning latte rush.

🚉 3. Redfern

Still gentrifying, still growing. Great for edgy, aesthetic café concepts with grab-and-go plus sit-down blend.

🧑‍🎓 4. Macquarie Park

Loaded with uni students and new office hubs. High weekday foot traffic, but few standout cafés. Big opportunity.

🏖️ 5. Coogee

Tourist and local beach blend. Huge brunch crowd. Rent’s high, but margins are there for quality operators.
