It's pretty close to a Coles for shopping afterwards and a fruit shop as well. The decor is quite chilled and inside the cafe it's riddled with heaps of magazines and anime comics. You can even buy a phone case while you wait! Didn't expect it at all but it's pretty cool! There's plenty of parking especially around the 9am mark! The iced latte really hits the spot and it's nice and filling. I've had it once before at another cafe and it felt really runny. So this one really hits the spot. Will definitely be back to try everything else soon.

This is like my study hiding place and simply relaxing for sometimes, just sometimes. Free internet and good seating arrangements, it's very convenient and comfortable for me. I always order these three drinks: caramel latte, Vietnamese coffee (with condensed milk) & lychee black tea. The last time I ordered something else, I feel like I just committed a crime to the list of my life decisions. I am not much of coffee drinker, as you can see most of my coffee are flavored (call me a fake coffee drink/ wink wink). So all you expresso or double shots survivors, I'm sorry to announce that you gotta try it to judge the coffee yourself. There are not so much food on the menu, just some packed sandwiches which you can ask them to toast for you if you want. The cakes are moderate. I tried a few. Opera cake still tops it all. Beware: if you need a quiet place for night coffee. NO. Don't come. It opens late till 11pm but they are packed at nighttime with mostly young target markets.

I'd definitely be back for a frappe or some ice cream later on! The people that worked there were pretty nice too...

The Yumington was a sweet breakfast treat that filled the brunch craving. Coffee was excellent and worked well with brunch. Not too bitter - a Goldilocks blend, just right.

I found Extraction Artisan Coffee almost 4 years ago by accident. And what a wonderful chance…read moremeeting it was. Located at the back of an industrial area near Springwood, this hidden gem of a coffee place is well worth the visit. You will return time and time again. Apart from the amazing range of gourmet food, their house blend 'Gratitude' coffee which is roasted and produced on-site is to die for. Extraction caters for all dietary needs, and it is very proud of the fact that it uses and respects sustainable practices. I love the way that it supports local industries including the dairy and meat farmers. I also love the fact that the staff are continually being involved in community events, and they excel in the way they give back to the community and inspire their customers to do the same. You feel like family. Ordering at the counter is fast and helpful and the table service is amazing. Everyone is so friendly, and continually making your dining experience wonderful. Coffee, friends, food and good times are the essences of Extraction. There are so many different places to sit and enjoy reasonably-priced coffee and food. Large, small and medium tables are surrounded by couches and antique chairs. The decor is eclectic but not pretentious. Apart from the exquisite range of coffee, Extraction also has their amazing range of cold drip coffee plus a huge assortment of tea if that's your thing. Go and try Extraction Artisan Coffee. It's a great place to meet people, relax, chill out and enjoy yourself surrounded by friendly and attentive staff. And on a personal note, for breakfast, you can't go past the vast array of choices, but for this man, the scrambled eggs are done to perfection and the locally produced bacon is exquisite. I love this quote from their online menu which really sums up the whole Extraction experience: "Sharing food and enjoying coffee together is the equivalent of saying you matter."

Zarraffas is one of the very few franchise coffee shops I frequent and for one big reason, their…read morecoffee is standardised! Doesn't matter which one I go to I know I am going to get the same coffee every time. They keep their machines clean (ergo no bitterness) staff are friendly and they don't over extract the beans which is important for someone who doesn't add any flavours or sweeteners. This zarraffas is the one I frequent the most and it has a great atmosphere! I normally take away but it is often filled with the sound of chatter and laughter which is lovely. The outside seating is very popular too though the only real view is of a car park! They have a great drink menu, I love the iced americano (which is espresso over filtered water with ice; no awful over extraction) it's so smooth to drink, great for summer and the cafe breve which is a really decadent cappuccino with cream, so naughty but so yummy! Such a guilty pleasure. Love it!

Although not a matcha themed cafe they do have a variety of hot & cold drinks & a cute range of desserts to try - some leaning towards the asian variety. I've read past reviews where some say that the matcha lattes for them was not strong enough, but I guess I got lucky when I had mine the other week? - As I found it hard to fault anything. Service was good & friendly, & I find it a clean, well presented place to go to relax & catch up with friends. Just make sure you don't go in their most busiest hours as I believe there is limited seating. Other than that, definitely order the creme brulee as its memorably amazing & choose the hojicha menu items if you appreciate matcha flavour as they dont disappoint ! :)

I've had durian, wildberry and black sesame gelato. The durian gelato has to be my favourite so far! The bun is delicious with condense milk too! I think I'll be here pretty often ;]

It's a little cafe in a plaza that does great food and drinks. They recently started their new menu which features a lot of variety for everyone. Whether you're trying to go all out for breakfast, be health conscious or even love a sweeter breakfast e.g. their amazing looking red velvet pancakes. I really mean it when they accommodate for groups: they offer platters for 2, 3, 4 people and even crazy platters for $99. Our dishes were so good - all components paired well together (poached eggs and fried haloumi cheese? Uhh yes, always yes!), and my green smoothie was a healthy delicious combo too. The decor is cute and the majority of seating is outside (option to be covered by shade rollers). It's table service and they do have specials that are always intriguing to try. I can see myself coming back here over and over because of their food and how it's conveniently on the Southside. Keep it up guys :)!
