Scoundrel opened at the end of 2023 in a converted Saint Asaph Street warehouse, and the room keeps much of the scale and informality of that setting. A 1950s Austin truck, low couches, abundant plants and a view into the coffee roastery make it feel assembled from characterful pieces rather than designed as a conventional dining room. The beer garden and dog-friendly policy extend that relaxed approach beyond the main indoor space.

Daytime service gives the venue a cafe identity before the tacos and bar take over. The Scoundrel breakfast combines eggs, hash, black beans, mushrooms, pea and avocado guacamole, greens, salsa and bread, while waffles with bacon offer a sweeter-savoury alternative. A flat wrap, Buddha bowl, mushrooms on toast and chicken burger spread the choices across handheld food, vegetables and more filling plates, all supported by Rad Roasting coffee from the adjoining operation.

Soft-corn tacos are the thread running through the menu. Chicken, pork and beef fillings sit alongside plant-based combinations such as charred vegetables and chickpeas, with toppings bringing texture, freshness and heat. Most dishes are already vegan or gluten-free, or can be adapted, which gives mixed groups genuine choice instead of a single token alternative. The taco format also makes it easy to build a meal gradually or share several flavours around the table.

Evening food shifts toward snacks and larger comfort dishes. Garlic flatbread, hummus and pickles, miso broccoli, cauliflower, pork-belly bites, poutine and mac and cheese are designed for grazing, while chicken and waffles, a taco bowl and sharing options can carry the meal further. Desserts, tap wine and beer complete the transition from daytime cafe to night venue, without losing the informal, communal mood established by the warehouse room.
