Cafe set in peaceful leafy surrounds situated in Brays Bay Reserve, alongside the Kokoda Track Memborial Walkway. Brays Bay forms part of the Parramatta River. 

The Kokoda Track Memorial Walkway is a living memorial and a principal site of commemoration honouring all those who fought for Australia during World War II. The Walkway covers more than 800 metres from Rhodes Station to Concord Hospital in Sydney’s inner-west, and runs along the mangrove-studded shores of Brays Bay on the Parramatta River.

At the centrepiece are magnificent granite walls bearing photographic images of the Kokoda campaign.
