    I had a Piccolo of the daily Single Origin: a sour-noted Mexican. Smooth, strong flavour with a lingering finish. Very nicely shot and presented with a clean latte art. If love to have this as my regular local.

    Very sleek looking operation. You could almost blink and miss this place due to its contemporary Fitout. Coffee is a hit. Very sweet and smooth, managed to get a lot out if the alchemy beans. Worth stoping by if you're around

    I've made a few visits since my first review.
    Time for an update.
    On Sunday I'd been to The Opera House to see my daughter finish one of the charity runs that morning and decided that I'd like to revisit Plunge for lunch as the food has been consistently excellent.
    I took my... Read more

    The new decor is decidedly Newtown, but the food remains excellent. Beans are from Alchemy and have that fruity acidity that Hazel does so well. Great coffee and food; well worth a trip to Summer Hill!

    Stopped by today for a t/a flat white. Decent coffee again, not spectacular but a decent place to go on a Sunday when everything else is closed. That's not to say it doesn't deserve stopping by anytime :)) Could have been slightly better in extracting the full flavour, but not bad!

    As a non local I wasn't sure where to try but Plunge by far looked the most inviting. Very friendly staff and top marks for my flat white. Flavour, crema lovely. Even had to get a take away as I left, still great quality.

    had a few coffees there the other day, flat white was full of chocolate and caramel, amazing! the piccolo that followed was 1 of the best I had this year, the balance was near perfect. the espresso was sweet and full of ripe fruit. they use beans from coffee alchemy, and I think they are doing an...

    Always good coffee. Did see someone having the scrambled eggs for lunch yesterday- looked very good. Little chocolate and raspberry cake was delicious.

    Consistently good coffee, pretty good food. Premium food price, but that's Summer Hill.

    Summer Hill has some top class food and coffee. This cafe is always busy and quite fast with service. They take their coffee seriously and usually do a first class job and obviously keep their customers satisfied. I drop in whenever I'm in the area and have never been disappointed. The food is excellent too.

    Busy place, coffee good, service is a bit patchy especially on weekends. New decor is not to my liking but I go back for the coffee

    Strong Espresso but bit cool in temp. Cappuccino bit milky. Used to be stronger. Change in staff probably. Shame. Hot chocolate ordinary. Indoor/outdoor. Usual cafe food but alot better than other Summer Hill offerings.

    I usually only visit Summer Hill for dinner, so didn't know Plunge existed until recently.
    I popped in for breakfast about 2 weeks ago.
    My coffee order came quickly and my flat white tasted nice.

    Then my breakfast arrived: Scrambled eggs with bacon and toast.

    Good standard of the Alchemy blend here. Awkward getting take-away as wherever you stand you seem to be in the way! Good friendly baristas, the manager/owner is a little miserable though :)
