About
Bayleaf is a well-known café in the centre of Byron Bay, on the corner of Marvell Street and Fletcher Lane, open daily for breakfast, brunch and lunch. It has a strong focus on supporting Northern Rivers suppliers, with a seasonal menu built around local and organic ingredients where possible.
The kitchen uses ethically sourced meats from Eastside Butchery, sourdough from The Bread Social, locally grown avocados and sustainably caught seafood, alongside house-made relishes, spreads and the cafe's own Bayleaf Chai. Coffee is roasted by Blackboard, and from 10am the café also pours natural wine, local beer and cocktails.
