I was fortunate enough to stay around the corner from the Top Shop. Made it very easy to pop in for coffee in the mornings. The actual shop looks like a house with indoor & outdoor seating. Many good breakfast items to choose from including the yogurt & the pastries. Very famous Byron coffee shop so definitely stop by at least once on your visit. read more

Always filled with a local crowd, which I think is a great sign. Top shop for relaxed, delicious fare. Go there for a breakfast catchup, take your food (all served in takeaway containers) and eat it in a spot on the grass in the sun, or on one of the communal tables. Best acai I have had in Australia by far! read more

The Top Shop - Acai with granola, banana and strawberries - Fast Food Near Me - Byron Bay, NSW

I'd give it 5 stars for the taste of the food and great Byron Bay atmosphere: families, kids, dogs, couples, singles, friends all casually hanging out. However, despite food being good and Byron Bay being pricey, food is truly overpriced here. 15 AU$ for sliced avos on toasted bread with an egg sunny side up and a slice of lemon really is way over the top. Plus, I'd appreciate an effort for the environment: yes, the dished are paper, but they still create waste. Real dishes and cutlery would be a better choice from my point of view. Staff are friendly. read more

What a great little "hole in the wall". I didn't find this place in my guidebook and it's in the middle of the neighborhood a few blocks from the main shopping and eating area, but wow was it busy! This is definitely a local hot spot for breakfast or brunch and from the looks of the foods can see why. All the pastries look absolutely delicious, the cold pressed juice looks refreshing and everything on the menu sounded awesome to me. I was tempted to try EVERYTHING, but I came with a mission. Now I am in love with acai bowls. We have a bunch of places in California that compete with one another to be the best so the quality is really good. I have a favorite place in my hometown that tops the other nearby and tops the one near my university. I also have one in Hawaii that I love because of all the fresh tropical fruit. So I am the type that expects some pretty fancy acai bowls with lots of different fruits and flavors. When I saw the picture on yelp of this bowl and how highly regarded it was, I was confused. It is a bowl full of the acai with one strawberry and half a banana and a few blueberries with a bit of granola. How could this even compare to my tropical fruit ones? Well it absolutely blew me away on my first bite. The flavor of this acai is so powerfully sweet you'll think you went to acai gelato yogurt heaven. The sweetness is stronger than any acai bowl I've ever had. I definitely agree with the other yelper that they probably use the frozen acai rather than the powder and it's obvious. I mixed in my fruit and granola and was taken to a world full of natural sugar. There's not a lot of seating so sit at the big square table and get ready to sit next to people or get it takeaway. That's one of the bummers. But they have outside seating (limited) and magazines you can read if you desire. The service was really nice even though it was busy. I would DEFINITELY recommend this place to anyone who enjoys acai bowls or loves breakfast foods. The locals seem to enjoy it and that's key when looking for good food. If I'm ever back in Byron I will come back and explore the menu more while still getting my acai bowl. It was the perfect after sunrise hike treat. I will still enjoy my tropical fruit bowls, but for the pure taste of the frozen acai, this is THE place to go. read more

The Top Shop is another highly recommended cafe for the best breakfast and the best coffee in Byron Bay. However our experience differ. We enjoyed the laidback vibes with a quick burger for lunch. I thought The Top Shop burger was really tasty and better than the one I had in the Main Street Burger Bar, however my partner disagreed and thought the patty was flavourless. Anyhow, I thought the burger size was a little small for $15 and the bun wasn't soft enough. The little paper tray and plastic cutlery also made eating hard to manage as we sat on the uncomfortable high stool with not much space around us. The coffee was also a slight letdown, it tasted ordinary to me. read more

Probably the best flat white of a dozen I had during a week in Byron. They provide blankets if you want to sit on the grassy area outside and enjoy the day. Nothing this pure could exist in America. read more

We found this place after some yelping for good joints on the way to Byron Bay. We were immediately struck with the sight of their acai bowls. The following day we found our way to the shop to grab a couple of bowls for breakfast. The presentation was great, but my immediate thought was - this is the smallest acai bowl I've ever had, and I've chased acai bowls all around Australia and the United States! Diving I to the bowl with a biodegradable wooden fork (nice touch), I was immediately hit with the sweetness of the acai and the richness of the granola! To the novice: there are different types of acai. There is the type that most places use in smoothies and bowls (eg Earth Bar in LA), and then there is the frozen type I used to keep in my freezer and eat like icecream. It's expensive but outstanding. I would put money on the fact this is the expensive home freezer stuff! MmmmMMMMmmm and the freshness of the strawberries and bananas was faultless. It's not a 5-star acai bowl because it cost $12.90 for literally half the volume of the popular $9.90 Earth Bar bowl. So I was left wanting more - I could smash 2 no problem. Having said that - I'll definitely be back. Friendly staff, great food, good atmosphere. Great work. read more

This place needs to invest in an air con, or at least a few more fans! I'd heard from the locals that this place has awesome burgers, but in the sweltering heat as sweat was rolling down my back the thought of anything hot to eat was unbearable, so I opted for a yogurt bowl. It was jam packed with fresh berries, chia seeds, flax and almonds and was the perfect hearty and healthy breakfast. The coffee was also a standout- they get their beans local in Byron! It's a shame I missed out on what's supposed to be their signature dish, but I enjoyed what I had and would go back. It's a nice touch that everything is served in biodegradable containers and that they seem super conscious of the environment there (maybe that's the reason behind no AC?) read more

Great fish burger, good produce and coffee. Juices great. Tucked away and very popular. Byron pricey though. $15 salad and burger. Food excellent though and staff great. read more

I really love this place! It's away from the main street in a nice relaxed area. Very convenient on your way to the lighthouse or the beach. I went here twice. Ordered the Mexican burger the first time. It was quite interesting, as the patty was made out of beans. Surprised me as I didn't look carefully at the menu, but still tasty. The next morning I returned and orders acai bowl after watching the sunrise at the lighthouse. Went with the classic, but I probably would have ordered a different one had I realized there were different style. The acai bowl wasn't as tart as I usually expect them to be. More on the sweet side. Delicious nonetheless. Prices tend to be on the higher side for what you get, but it's understandable when you see how environmentally friendly they are. Everything from the spoons to the toilet paper in the bathroom is eco-friendly. That on top of the lovely decor of the place made it a place I'll highly recommend read more
