    What attracted me to Crave Coffee was its unusual exterior and location. Situated on Maddox Street,…read more(Nothing unusual about that), it has the appearance of a warehouse, a small outlet for coffee related paraphernalia and the coffee itself. Then, if you follow the instructions and go upstairs, you'll find the actual cafe in a sort of loft, hovering over the warehouse section of the business. I entered the establishment, unsure of whether I was supposed to be in there, the place was empty. Apart from the massive sign which read, "Now Open" there was no way of knowing whether it was open or not. (Give me a sign lord!) I walked upstairs and was met by the barista, I asked if they did milkshakes, I wanted a shake badly, eager for something refreshing to sooth my dehydrated skin. I could feel the dryness in my hands. They didn't serve milkshakes, "Coffee" she said, was all they did. (That and food.) I told her of how I had already had four coffees that morning. This was no lie, I had one when I woke up and then I had three meetings, all involving a caffeinated beverage. I succumbed, such was my desire to find out about this small and mysterious cafe. However, in order not to further destroy myself with these caffeinated treats, I decided to get a Macchiato, a small coffee (Still probably with the same amount of caffeine.) The coffee was really, really tasty. I sat with a bottle of tap water and sipped some water with my coffee at a ratio of ten to one in order to get some liquids into my body, other than the rain.

    This is arguably the Best Coffee in Sydney!…read more Fresh Roasted on site and used in many of the best cafes in Sydney. I turned up today to buy my regular kilo bag of their signature "Lindt Blend" beans (for home) and find that they have expanded to the restaurant space next door! (...good to see the same team that has been doing it for years) The Breakfast is Great. I had the Chorizo with scrambled egg and sourdough. Still the best Coffee. Now with more room to hangout for Coffee and Breckky or Lunch. They also do a mean takeaway coffee at the front. (Okay so I'm excited for them!)

    Walking up William St towards the Kings X coke sign, a landmark that defines the area, we cross the…read moreroad and veer to the right as we are headed for our destination, Frankie's Beans. Being in the Cross, the name could mean anything, thankfully for us it refers to coffee. With two highly rated cafes on the bean hunter App, 'Frankie's Beans' and 'cafe with out a name', we had to check this place out. We arrived at the cafe, looking back down William St, this cafe perched on the hill has a good outlook of the city skyline. Inside the cafe, it has a modern Scandi theme, with light coloured wood and whites. There is plenty of coffee paraphernalia to keep you distracted. We meet the friendly Frank and select a table outside and take in the view before ordering. We had been hearing good things about the coffee at Frankie's Beans. Frankie heads out to his roaster every Monday to experiment and create his award winning specialty coffee. The pour over method, the preferred drinking method of many coffee aficionados wanting to taste the flavours of the coffee. These flavours can be influenced in many ways, be it origin, variety or how they are prepared. The pour over method can be a timely process, but Frankie is an innovator and has modified his coffee machine to produce a pour over type coffee in an efficient manner. The process is call FAB, short for fractional atmospheric brew. Pop in to see Frank, he will happily explain the process in detail. After hearing so much about the FAB we are intrigued and must try. Frank suggests we try two single origin varieties with a single origin from Elsalvador and Costa Rica. This was a way of sampling the FAB method as well as an experiment to taste the difference first hand. The experiment worked both brews were very different in taste and appearance, with the Costa Rican's fruity characteristics being my preference. This being a brunch visit, some food was also in order. Frankie's Beans has a range of sandwiches, cakes and breakfast options available. We had it on good word that their toasties were the bomb. Deciding on the Rueben and the Slow cooked lamb with Tzatziki, we were not disappointed. Asked to pick which was our favourite, almost an impossible task. However on this day the Rueben won for me, but this may change on any given day as both were fine examples of a toastie. Having also heard about the 3 Colombians blend, for milk based coffee. A triple blend single origin, being in the East I ordered my usual latte. A smooth coffee drinking coffee with a strong flavour, perfect to drink without sugar. A great cafe worthy of a visit for coffee lovers, we left buzzing and not only from the coffee consumed. Frank is a top guy and his staff friendly and welcoming, they have great coffee and do kick arse toasties. Suffice to say we will return and be hunting down the 'cafe with out a name' for a coffee as well.

    Located in Kings Cross Sydney. Me and my wife had a very good breakfast. The barista (didn't get…read morehis name) made me a good cappuccino. Before we left the cafe, I gave a compliment to the barista and said "I love you bro". We all had a good laugh.

    Finally! A place where I don't spit the coffee out and cry in a corner that there's nowhere out…read morehere that makes coffee ala like there is in the inner west. Not overpriced and really rather yummy brunch & lunch options. Seating inside and out. Heaps of free parking and genuinely pleasant staff mean that I dare say we will be here more often. The cafe is tucked behind Bunnings next door to the climbing gym. If you are in the area and need a caffeine or food hit. Check these guys out.

    Modern Australian with streaks of Mediterranean weaved in. The menu is a play on classics with…read moresome really nice enhancements. Having just opened before Christmas it's the new kid on the block at Woodville Road in Villawood. Right across from the epicentre of Bunnings, AMF Bowling, Skirmish, Indoor Rock Climbin, Cross Fit and Real Estate agency, it will be impossible for this place to not become a local favorite! So much familiarity with dishes like the old salmon and capers combo we love, and The Woods Pantry (TWP) is really clever not to rock the boat too much, addin little touches like the dill caper cream cheese topping, pickled onion and lemon preserve. Such minor changes with powerful flavour sensations overall in the dish. Much is the same with the Vanilla French Toast which combines caramel and passionfruit - genuis!!! Adding pistacchios into the mix we maintain the Mediterranean touch that seems to appear throuhout the breakfast, lunch and dinner menus. Again this is done with the old CLT which is jazzed up with lemon marinated grilled chicken breast smothered with a layer of hommus! For me, the definite favorite was the Breakfast Mezze with the many components to play with making every single bite different and better than the next. Your flatbread fillings include eggs, lebanese beef sausages, potato rosti, haloumi, marinated mushroom, labneh, and the fresh crunch and zest from cucumber, olive and tomato. Nice modern fitout with wide open spaces with a view into the busy centre complex, it's great casual hangout space that you'd definitely come back to regularly!
