How we picked best cafes in Mascot

Cafes are ordered by an average mark that counts for more when many visitors gave it, so one or two marks carry little weight. The picks then get a boost where the topic fits: brunch on the menu, weekend hours, outdoor tables and dogs. Each cafe's own page sets how its food and coffee are described. Criticism appears only when several recent visitors say the same thing.
