Allpress is a funny cafe...... They work hard on an industry image of first class coffee, but I think their coffee could be better.
I asked for a double ristretto and received a funny look so I pointed to the large menu behind the girl at the cash register before receiving a re-assuring smile.
After a reasonably short wait I received a single ristretto. Hmmm.
Putting aside that crappy service my ristretto was ok, although a little bitter for my liking. This was very surprising to me because Allpress get rave reviews from so many of my friends.
I have had worse, but I am not sure if i woul...
One thing I missed the most when I left Sydney was Allpress coffee... I used to head to Allpress every morning on the way to work for a large latte and sour cherry toast with jam. Yum, it's making my mouth watering writing about it. When I am in town I stop by for a coffee and get some to take away with me. Then I can at least pretend! Quick service, great atmosphere, maybe a little noisy, but I love the hustle and bustle of this busy cafe. Service is always prompt and not a burnt coffee in sight!
Like • Share • ReportOne of my favourite places. Go there almost on a daily basis and the coffee is almost perfect every time. Only time it hasn't done well in my books is when it is overly busy, but that's forgivable. Also need to mention that the service is top notch.
Only thing I wish was that they had a wider variety of food.
