About Citizens of Brew Ha

A long-running Subi institution on Rokeby Road, Citizens of Brew Ha pairs serious espresso with a bustle of neighborhood regulars and courtyard chatter. Longtime patrons count on brisk counter service for morning flat whites, while the kitchen serves up generous plates of Benedict Royale, golden corn fritters, and spiced shakshuka. Across the front tables, dog-friendly sunny patio, and back room stacked with daily broadsheets, it remains an easy daytime anchor for casual work meetings or quiet weekend catch-ups.

  • Counter-Service Rhythm: Order and collect at the counter to keep morning coffee runs moving briskly across indoor and patio seating.
  • Print Newspapers & Spacious Seating: A large back room and courtyard setup equipped with stacks of three major daily Australian broadsheets.
  • Hearty Kitchen Fare: Plates from the dedicated kitchen feature poached eggs, Benedict Royale, corn fritters, and house-made shakshuka.
