Tropicana Caffe

Fast, fresh food & great atmosphere. Birthplace of Tropfest Film Festival

From Tropicana’s humble beginnings in 1980, it is now known to be one of the most iconic cafes in Australia. Located just a short stroll south from Sydney’s renowned Kings Cross, Tropicana is situated along the popular Victoria street restaurant and cafe strip. Tropicana Caffe is open from 5am to 11pm every day and offers a wide variety of focaccias and salads, as well daily changing pastas and Italian-style main meals.

HOMEMADE CROSTOLI 🇮🇹

It’s the indulgent dessert form of pasta, made of eggs, butter, flour and sugar. Instead of being put to boil, the dough is deep fried until golden and sprinkled with icing sugar. The result? A crispy, flaky sweetened treat that melts in your mouth!

Our small family business is extremely sad to receive the news last night that a positive covid customer came to Tropicana between 12-2pm Friday 18 June.

We are now closed so our venue can have a deep clean and all staff have been tested and are isolating.

We urge any customers who were there that day to please get tested also.

Tropicana will reopen Saturday 3rd July.

We would absolutely love and appreciate to have all of your support so we can remain open for good.

Thank you and see you soon.

Love from your Tropicana family ❤️
