    Interesting, as I was waiting for my coffee I was thinking negative. The service was crap, the take away cups were crap, the ambiance was crap even the music playing was crap so expected the black stuff to follow suit.

    Not so, the coffee was actually quite good. Who knew?

    Good enough to drink, not good enough to recommend.

    The big let down are the DiStefano beans, surly and bitter they aren't exactly going to set the world ablaze with favourable comments.

    The barista does a good job, milk texture and impressionist latte art are all... Read more

    Staff and food are great, but the place is often shrouded in darkness- with it's dark walls and limited lighting. More of a coffee after desert kind of place methinks. But if it's just the coffee your after it doesn't do to bad a job!

    Was always hesitant to go to The Depot as it seemed to have a yuppy vibe. I eat my words. Had a mocha and some tapas and they were all delicious. The mocha was creamy and at first a little sweet, but very tasty. Good service. Can't wait to try a regular coffee. Will definitely be going back.

    Food is nice but has more of the "wish I was at a night club vibe". They're trying really hard to be a ritzy / trendy cafe ...but it's over priced and the coffee is not the best. It wasn't busy but everything took forever so perhaps the staff were bored and fell asleep out back.

    Come here every weekend for breakie and coffee. A definite pick for Darby Street!

    Coffee was great! After reading the reviews, thought I'd try this place. It wasn't busy, so I had no probs with service. Coffee was hot, foamy, one of the best I've had in a while.

    So this place is an excellent restaurant, they do great food and have great atmosphere and service. But, let's face it, coffee is not their primary business. It is however, available most hours of the day and light years ahead of the rubbish served by other well known places on Darby purporting to... Read more

    Beautiful room, good food and great staff. The barista knows what he\'s doing but the Di Stefano coffee does let things down a bit. Top place though.

    Friendly staff providing a great menu. Coffee is to die for. I go here very regularly
