Why it's worth checking out
The Lookout brings a quality cafe to Ithaca Road in Elizabeth Bay, by the harbour in inner Sydney's elegant east. With 328 reviews behind its 4.4 rating, it has built a loyal following.
The appeal is a relaxed cafe in a lovely harbourside location — somewhere to settle in for breakfast, brunch or a coffee with lovely views close by. Elizabeth Bay's elegant, leafy streets, close to the harbour and Potts Point, make it easy to fold a visit into a wider day out.
Cafe menus, specials and trading hours change over time, and weekends can get busy. If you're after a particular dish or specific opening hours, it's worth confirming the current details directly with the cafe before you head over.
