This place is excellent! The matcha latte was high quality. I asked for a less sweet version and loved it. Everything we ordered was fresh, flaky, and delicious, e.g.  the kouign amann, bulgogi pastry, and the truffle caramelised onion pastry. The vibe is great with both indoor and outdoor seating. When we visited, they were playing Taylor Swift’s Reputation album which I love, and they even had water available. We’ll definitely be back!

I have been here a couple of times and enjoyed the consistently good coffee and food. Here is a snapshot of what I think of ENA:n- The food is good. Love the textures and flavour for croissants. The hazelnut filling was so spot on in terms of flavours. The spice in the kough annan was a good strong flavour too but not overpowering, which was nice.n- Coffees are good there too; cold or hot. I enjoyed the maple oat latte as the maple syrup used was fragrant and love the fact that the coffee tasted good.n- Staff are friendly. They are efficient in keeping the place clean.n- They accept both cash and card.n- They have complementary table tap water.n- There are limited seats available but they do have indoor and outdoor seatings.n- Love the tasteful decor, layout and colour scheme. The air conditioning in the cafe is a lifesaver on a hot day.n- They are located close to Pacific Highway and close to Crows Nest Metro Station + buses that pass by Pacific Highway.nnI highly recommend anyone wanting good coffee & croissants to check out this cafe.

Not a big bakery person, but recommended by a local housemate to try Moonphase, a Korean-style bakery — and it definitely did not disappoint. I’m not usually into sweet food, and while I thought the Bulgogi could’ve been a tad sweet, and the Chisu had a sticky glaze that was a little much, you can tell the precision and skill in how they bake their goods is top-notch.nnThe staff were genuinely friendly and hospitable, adding to the overall experience. The space is cozy, with a few nice tables to sit at, and it’s clear the local Korean community loves coming here for breakfast. Cool vibe, great spot to drop by if you’re in St Leonards.

My mate pre-ordered black sesame croissant for me, it's so delicious and with all that black sesame and jam filling, it's still crunchy. If there is a croissant Oscar this one will definitely win! Also had watermelon splash filter coffee, it does taste like watermelon, amazingly refreshing speciality coffee, I can't love moon phase enough and I will try everything!

Moon Phase in St Leonards delivered an outstanding experience, both in flavour and presentation. The Maple Latte was exceptionally well-balanced, offering a rich, smooth coffee base complemented by the gentle sweetness of maple. The flavour was indulgent without being overpowering, and the texture was creamy, smooth, and deeply satisfying.nnThe Strawberry Croissant showcased excellent craftsmanship. Its exterior was crisp and flaky, giving way to tender, buttery layers inside. On top, diced strawberries, cream dollops, and custard were artfully piped, adding colour, freshness, and a luxurious mouthfeel. The strawberry filling itself had a fresh, natural sweetness that paired perfectly with the pastry’s rich flavour profile. The balance between crispness and softness was particularly noteworthy and very enjoyable.nnThe highlight, however, was the Pistachio Croissant. Unlike the traditional crescent shape, this one was stretched into a beautiful swirl, giving it a distinctive appearance and even baking throughout. The pastry was light and delicate, encasing a generous pistachio filling that was aromatic, nutty, and subtly sweet. The flavours were refined and harmonious, with just the right level of richness. My partner, who is not typically drawn to pistachio pastries, described it as the best they have ever tasted, without hesitation or doubt.nnOverall, Moon Phase delivers pastries and coffee of exceptional quality, with a clear emphasis on balance, texture, and flavour. From the first sip to the last bite, every element reflected careful attention to detail and a commitment to excellence. Highly recommended for those seeking a premium pastry and coffee experience in Sydney’s vibrant café scene.
