Overview
Bloom is a destination café that has elevated the brunch scene in Thebarton with its thoughtful design, wood-fired menu, and locally grounded ethos. Housed in a strikingly renovated warehouse, the venue offers a unique fusion of industrial character and botanical warmth — complete with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and polished concrete softened by lush greenery and soft textures.
The open kitchen, anchored by a wood fire oven, drives much of Bloom’s creativity. The menu features familiar brunch staples reimagined with bold techniques and local produce — from fire-roasted pumpkin with whipped labneh to sourdough crumpets, grilled flatbreads, and smoky slow-cooked meats. There’s a focus on big flavour, vibrant presentation, and seasonal adaptability. Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options are available and treated with as much care as the rest of the menu.
Coffee is brewed with the same attention to detail, with beans sourced from respected local roasters and prepared via espresso and filter methods. House-made juices, teas, and signature drinks like turmeric lattes or seasonal spritzes round out the drinks offering.
Bloom’s expansive interior flows seamlessly into its sun-drenched courtyard, making it as appealing in winter as it is on a breezy spring morning. Service is professional yet approachable, and the atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between bustling and laid-back.
Popular with locals, weekend brunch crowds, and those seeking a weekday work break with serious style, Bloom delivers an experience that’s as much about environment as it is about the plate.
