Review by Pupsy - Dog friendly cafes in Ashfield
It’s hard to believe there hasn’t always been a cafe in this spot, considering it’s neatly on the edges of Ashfield, Dulwich Hill, Canterbury and Marrickville. It’s the understanding that a quality café should offer more than just good food and coffee coupled with an atmosphere that effortlessly blends into the neighbourhood that set Outfield apart. And that, to borrow from Richie Benaud, is marvellous.

A cafe that caters to kids without compromising on the quality of coffee and food on offer.
Review by Concrete Playground
After spending "many hours kicking the footy or pushing the kids on a swing and wishing we could get a good coffee nearby," Inner West locals Caleb and Belinda Maynard decided to make their hopes a reality. And the 1950s former baby health clinic in the outfield of Ashfield's Yeo Park was the perfect place to do just that.

Review by DAILY ADDICT
Parents sit barefoot enjoying a perfectly brewed flat white and an open-top artisan sandwich in the dappled sun, while babies freely explore the grassy hill. The aptly named Outfield is the new Ashfield cafe bringing a sense of homely sophistication from indoors to out, to an inner west park-side (well cricket pitch-side) suburban locale.
Review by THE SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
Armed with sparkling pineapple and passionfruit sodas and an excellent creamy flat white, our table swoons through the smash’s layers of avocado, furikake (a spicy Japanese seasoning), fat and crispy chicken pieces, fermented chilli and lemon sprinkled with dill on gluten-free bread.
Review by BROADSHEET SYDNEY
Outfield is in a cute ’50s brick building with porthole windows overlooking a rolling park lawn. Its clientele looks as though it’s just strolled in from a stock-image library in the category “local community”.
