    If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, Melbourne must be blushing. Melbourne is known for lane way cafe's and hole in the wall coffee posts, it seems Sydney wants a piece of the action.

    It's far from unique but it's still emerging as an espresso trend in Sydney, Joe Black... Read more

    Not to be confused with Joe Black in Surry Hills (they're no relation), this little hole-in-the-wall is a brilliantly Italian coffee haunt in the middle of one of the CBDs busiest intersections. Blink, and you'll miss it.

    You'll be drawn in by the charismatic and very friendly barista... Read more

    Wonderful espresso. Apparently there is a name change and an upgrade of facilities. Can it get better?

    a great find thanks to bean hunter. we stopped in for an afternoon coffee and was not disappointed. it is easy to miss being just a black door in a wall, we almost did, but well worth the hunt. coffee was perfectly done with great flavour and body. the service was legendary as well.

    What a great whole in the wall. Great friendly service and the guys on the coffee machine make an awesome piccolo and are a good laugh.

    Great setup but the coffee was 'meh' but what do I know - just a latte drinker.

    Grant makes a kick ass Mac. He's running some slick machinery and is always happy to tweak the brew to your taste.

    A great little coffee bar in the cbd.The barrister and chef are really friendly, welcoming and fun.Having had several lattes, a couple of delicious sandwiches and muffins, I highly recommend it. If you're a little tired of your usual local, definately give Joe Black a try. You won't be disappointed.

    5 Lattes
