    Espresso was a tad bitter, latte a tad too hot and somewhat unremarkable.

    I was surprised at how good this was! The tiny shop and crowded seating in the arcade made me think the coffee would be equally rushed...but my piccolo was delicious and beautifully-presented.

    Scalding flat white and slow service.

    I agree with Coffee Expert, best coffee I've had in Sydney! It was a little hot but the flavor made up for it. Food was ok and the service was outstanding.

    Found this little gem while our shopping and decides to stop for breakfast. The food and service is great, but the coffee is just okay.

    Coffee was great - beautifully made. Food very ordinary and quite expensive. My breakfast bacon was burnt to a crisp and still sent to the table.

    My daily brew. It appears the discerning bunch from the office go there. The cats behind the bar know my pref for a strong one in the morning, and unlike other nearby venues they manage to keep the milk perfect all the way back to the desk. Sitting in is good too. Almost reminds me of Wien and the... Read more

    Great price. Good coffee. Good people. They forget your order every now and then but all in all, it's a good, reliable bean fix.

    Weak and too milky, flavour was non descript, below par for standard cafe coffee

    I have to agree with Trees - flavour was very mild and milky. I went in a quiet period so it should have been at it\'s best. Shall continue my search.

    Good coffee and great toasted BLT. A regular stop for coffee when at Pitt St Mall.

    Food was good, portions were quite generous. Coffee was pretty decent - nice consistency, flavour and just the right temperature (hot but not scalding).

    What an absolute delight, lovvvvveeee this little spot!
    The staff are great, same faces, the meals well above cafe standard and best of all the coffee is the best I tasted in Sydney!
    Born and raised in Italy I set a pretty high bench mark for a good coffee and this place goes above... Read more

    I have become a regular at this café and my day is not complete without a strong coffee from here.

    The coffee is full bodied, without a burned or bitter after taste and presentation has been faultless.

    They even have a couple of "old school" coffee machines on... Read more

    I have a passion for well made strong flavoured coffee. I thought I was in for one when I ordered my standard double shot cap here.

    Granted I came at a busy time. Customers beside me for the 10 minutes i was waiting were getting very grumpy about the delay in their lunch arriving.Read more
