Made for a real working day.

Choose from the current menu when you order. Availability and prices can change, so the live menu is always the source of truth.

Hot lunches

The menu includes choices such as chicken curry with rice, lamb curry with rice, fish and chips and rotating Cafe 1 Classics.

Sandwiches and paninis

Choose a cold filled sandwich or a hot pressed panini when you want lunch that is easy to take back to work.

Wraps, rolls and salads

Choose a wrap or filled roll, or look for lighter salad and cold-food options on the live menu.

Breakfast for lunch

Our breakfast and Desi breakfast categories are served all day, so lunch does not have to mean giving up your favourite morning plate.

Lunch that fits the time you actually have

Some days allow a proper sit-down break; others leave enough time only to collect a prepared order. Café 1 supports both. Dine in at the café, order at the counter to take away, or place the order online before you arrive.

The range covers filling hot meals and compact desk-friendly choices. Availability can change during service, so use the live menu to make the final choice rather than relying on a saved menu image.
