They menu sports lots of interesting sounding items and perhaps we made a poor choice. Our chocolate milkshake wasn't quite what we were expecting and we were a bit underwhelmed. While beautiful looking, it was really just chocolate milk with a heap of whipped cream on top-not the thick rich predominantly ice cream treat of the states. So had we chosen something different, perhaps I could have given a bit higher ranting. Note: order andd pay at the counter, get a number then they bring the food to your table

The counter service contributed to something of a lack of character; I didn't feel like I was getting the personal touch of some of Australia's best cafes, but if you need a dessert, it's certainly tasty.

We were staying just above the wharf and spent about 20 minutes walking over. They had a great array of crusty, sweet and savory pastries, pies, and breakfast items. Perhaps the most impressive thing was the fact that their list of specials took up an entire chalkboard. Everything from sweet rolls too, wallaby and rabbit, pie, to some delicious eggs Benedict and a big English breakfast. They had something for everybody, and everything was really good! The place is housed in a relatively old building with a lot of character! Not so old that you're worried that you would find petrified things in the wall, but old enough that you definitely know the place has had a chance to fall over and won't. The staff was really nice, took great care of us and found us seats very quickly, despite the place being busy. All in all, this is a must check out spot whenever you are in town!

Ordered a small flat white, what I got was more of a latte. Fine enough, but it had a somewhat plasticky aftertaste. A Very light espresso roast- if you like your coffee strong definitely get a double/extra shot. Based solely on the coffee, I'm not sure why they have the reputation they do. Given the explosion of cafes recently, it's a little surprising that the top end of Liverpool St has only this one cafe. I'd say they definitely get a lot of business from their location.

I'm trying this new "direct and honest" thing lately, so when the gent asked me how my coffee was on my last visit, I told him honestly that it wasn't the best, but it was drinkable. He took it off me, demanded my feedback, and came back a few minutes later with a much improved version. Just awesome service.

If this review were for the coffee only, I'd have to go with three stars. On some days, the coffee is DELICIOUS. On other days, it's average--or even sub-par.
