Consistently excellent coffee at a reasonable price, complemented by friendly staff and great service. My go-to spot whenever I’m working in the office.

The worse cafe experience ever.

Not only does the male barista( Asian with short-hair who claimed to be the owner) make terrible coffee, either too bitter or too watery, he also reacted rudely when he overheard my conversation with the cashier where I was asking if I can ask another barrister (who makes very good coffee) to make coffee for me after I had the terrible coffee this man made in three consecutive days.

I quote: ‘this is my shop! I make all the coffee!’ in a furious way..🤬

I was literally shocked. Will never visit again. Obviously, he’s SKILLFUL enough to let out negative feelings on customers. I hope he could be so with coffee-making soon.

Truly the worst experience ever..

Timing is everything here. I arrived at 8:05 and ordered breakfast, there were a few people here but not many. Got my coffee and Benny pretty fast. From 8:20 more people started to come, by 8:25 there was a coffee line if 6 long, by 8:30 it was about 10 and progressively getting busier. People were getting served pretty fast, good vibes and very positive staff. The coffee and food was really good although I have had better eggs Benedict, sauce was a little bland. But overall a good experience and great staff. Obviously a popular coffee spot. Would come back. If I did find Roma tomatoes in eggs Benedict kinda weird as well, just ate those first, they were nice and fresh! Lastly very well priced compared to other options in the area, $15 for the Classic Benny!

Despite my visit coinciding with the office worker lunchtime rush, I was attended to immediately on arriving at this busy venue. The friendly staff member quickly took my order, a small flat-white coffee, a lemon curd muffin, and a BLAT sandwich. All up, $17.20, very good value these days.

The outdoor seating area was quite comfortable, despite the windy and rainy weather, the area is protected by a shade sail structure. My items, including a complimentary cup of chilled water, were placed on the table after a very brief wait.

The coffee was nice and hot, and flavourful without being too strong. The BLAT sandwich was delicious, featuring fresh and perfectly toasted bread, the ingredients were all great, including a generous amount of bacon. The muffin was fresh and moist, the lemon curd was quite tangy.

Disarmingly good coffee. They are using a subtle blend with a gentle fruitiness to the beans. More importantly, they make the coffee and milk so well that you can taste it!
The seating is fine and in a nice quiet area with some plants, but it's not the area they have focused on. They are clearly focused on making some of the best coffee in the city.

Absolutely love this cafe.
The staff are incredible and friendly. One of them remembers my order even though I only visited once a week or less.
Excellent Belgian chocolate mocha. All time breakfast favourite to date is Find Salmon Like You (scrambled eggs with smoked salmon on croissant).
