Brookvale Cafe Ditches Delivery Giants, Launches Own Service to Cut Costs for Customers

Cactus Cafe, located in the industrial heartland of Brookvale, is making waves by moving away from food delivery giants like DoorDash and Uber Eats.



Owned by Cedric le Page and Manu Marsan, the cafe has launched its own delivery service to reduce customer costs and retain more profits.

The move comes as a trial, offering online orders delivered within 30 minutes for a flat $3 fee. Cedric, who currently makes deliveries on foot, plans to upgrade to an electric bicycle as the service grows.

The cafe owners wanted to do more for the locals and people working there. They realised that launching their service would allow them to retain more profits and provide better care for their customers.

The cafe’s revised menu boasts a wide range of grab-and-go options, including the famous “breaky burrito” and “deluxe” bacon and egg roll. Lunch offerings feature burgers, wraps, poke bowls, and chicken salad.

Cedric explained that many customers in Brookvale are too busy to wait in a cafe, and the high fees of delivery platforms often drive up prices. By charging a flat $3 fee on orders over $25, Cactus Cafe aims to offer a more affordable and convenient option.



The cafe owners are pleased with the positive response from customers and the number of deliveries already being made around Brookvale.
