    Had a double shot. Had to drive to Woolies in Mayfield to stand in the cold section. Highly recommend. Intense and a consistently good cup.

    Everything is terrible about this place. Bad food, bad coffee, bad service. Unless you know the people who work there you WILL get ignored.

    Best coffee! Satisfisfactory service. Love the honey ricotta with banana bread or fruit toast. Comfy, recycled couches, leafy courtyard, relaxed atmosphere. Sometimes feels like a daycare centre though.

    Great coffee. And pretty good atmosphere. They don't always have the best service though. And not always friendly.

    After all the hype I called in to Suspension on the way to a meeting, I gave them more than enough time (15mins in fact) before I asked how long my coffee would be, the attitude I got handed back will ensure I will just keep going to my local haunt instead!

    I have visited this a few times since my last review and unfortunately the standards have dropped noticeably. The quality of coffee has slowly declined, the cleanliness has become a noticeable issue (flies!), and the food while acceptable needs some sprucing up. Hopefully they pull up their socks...

    I've never been disappointed here, which cannot be said for many places. Great short black.

    My take away took a long time considering it didn't seem that busy. It did give me plenty of time to notice how dirty it was. Grungy is one thing but this kinda put me off the coffee. I wouldn't rush back.

    The image portrayed is likable. Coffee good, but the service is shit along with the attitude of the baristas. Always chatting to thier friends and not even an aknowledgement you are in their cafe.

    Nice atmosphere kinda urban hippy. Coffee is strong must use a large group, good for the morning kickstart but needed more flavor to be great

    Simply not good enough. Looks like a place where you get good speciality coffee but my hopes for a nice brew disappeared when the waitress didn't know what I meant with a single origin...
    We got out coffees quick, the only good thing about them. The milk was way too hot and my espresso was... Read more

    I really enjoy the layout and style of this cafe. Coffee is nicely prepared. I haven't had much success in friendly service - sometimes I find it awkward while placing my order.

    Been here three times and have had double ristretto piccolo Each time. Place feels a little grungy but trendy at the same time, however if you love coffee they do it very well.

    Was in the area so I thought I'd check this place out again. Didn't think much of the re-furbish (locker wall nice tho). But I was here for a coffee anyway.....and was disappointed. I'm really not sure what they did wrong. Combination of bad extraction and milk not quite right. I was hanging... Read more
