    Mixed feelings about this place. First coffee I had there shortly after opening was excellent, but then a few months later we were very dissapointed! Unfortunately this put us off, mine was bitter and watery and the other bitter and not hot enough... not sure if I was just unlucky or the barista... Read more

    Decent coffee and a very cozy place. I'm only bothered by the 70 cents surcharge for soy milk . Seems a bit excessive.

    Great little cafe, friendly service and delicious coffee - nuff said? Coffee was actually quite nutty and really unique. Don't know what beans they use, but it was really interesting. Will definitely visit again when I'm back in Newy.

    Yum. Long black was delicious. Sourdough toast with hommus and tomato was very generous and delicious. One of my top ten favourite coffee places.

    I had a toastie from here, and ordered a coffee. Finished the first but barely touched the second. Shame really, I love coffee and to not be able to drink even half of my coffee is saying something.

    I also like it here. It is the perfect little spot to enjoy a perfect coffee. I look forward to returning and encourage everyone to try it out.

    Finally I've made it here. Working for a competitor around the corner my Monday to Friday shift have stopped me from making it over.
    Definitely worth the wait. I had a delicious short black that was very well rounded and reminiscent of the Brazil Daterra we pour. I followed with a strong fw... Read more

    Great iced latte. Really refreshing to find baristas that rock it the right way. Well done folks.

    This place hits the spot! From the awesome outdoor furniture to the well extracted long black. Friendly staff and the barista knew what she was doing. Nice location as well.

    Fairly hit and miss in the 10 or so times i have been. There are better options within a 5 minute walk. Will also mirror other comments that the service is somewhat cold, a smile goes a long way!

    I've bean here a few times and everyone is always lovely and the coffee beyond yum! Small breakfast menu but avo on toast is perfect! I am always going back!

    While the coffee was extracted nicely, and the milk just right, it wouldn't hurt the staff to acknowledge the customer and maybe try cracking a smile... was happy I'd ordered takeaway, definately a cold vibe going on that day!

    Nice strong coffee in a cool little cafe. Small food menu but tasty.

    Love this spot. They roast their own and the Suspension bean is one of my favourite in newcastle. Always pour a good double riss shot, but my last flat white was just on cool side for me, sculled it before I'd got back to my desk, slightly only slightly warmer would be good. Cakes are to die for... Read more

    Epic little spot, furnishing and decorating is so cool. Dude in there has a beard so good, almost as good as his chops on the tools which were top notch. Double rizz tastes like honey, delicious!
