Well, it came down to this one, and honestly, this one was nowhere near better than the previous I had visited. In a way, the breakfast options were limited, and not really what I was looking for, though I decided that since I was hungry I would make a choice nonetheless. The service was okay, but I found the tea to be a little too strong. It really isn't one that I'd be hurrying back to any time soon.

This was the best meal I had in Newcastle, and it was only a brunch. But hey, smashed avo is the…read moregreatest thing ever, particularly when it's gussied up with some fancy herbs and fancy toast and a good crank of rock salt that sucks into the green mess and jazzes it up like a saxophone welded to the place where your arm is meant to go. Bonus points to the old beardy fella busking across the road. Dude was singing the blues like his dog ran away and his wife just left with his best friend and all he had left was his guitar and a pocket full of stories. Also next door there's a donut place where you can get maple bacon and nutella donuts for a cheeky dee-zert after coffee and toast. That never hurts.

For a bakery 80% empty of its stock, you may be surprised at my 4 star rating. I arrived at 7am, 30…read moreminutes after they opened, and was met with mostly coffee orders, a few savoury pastries and 3 sweet options. I asked when the display would be filled and was told as they are made fresh it would be around 10am. I often feel guilty leaving places without a purchase and had come this far so what the hell! I decided on the cinnamon scroll and Nutella dobundt (baked donuts). I envisioned microwaving their staleness away but this never came to be. When I was given my tray it was very heavy and the bottom was warm from the food. Travelling back home gave plenty of time for my mouth to water over the inviting, homely, cinnamon aroma filling my car. Eating with a cuppa and fresh fruit; the scroll was incredibly soft and fluffy with a slightly caramelised base and good filling ratio. The Nutella dobundt was equally as fresh despite not eating it until the afternoon. Didn't indulge on the Nutella. Just the right amount. Cake texture with a dusting of donut sugar. I must return when the store is full. So far I'm impressed.

Always delicious pastries and love the coffee. Very friendly customer service. Support your local…read morebusinesses

Our party had sausage rolls, a quiche, a couple of meat pies and 4 gourmet donuts. I loved my chicken/ leek pie and enjoyed the decadence of the Niutella stuffed donut I shared.

This hidden gem tucked away in the back streets of Balmain makes vegan and gluten free cakes,…read moredoughnuts, patisserie and serves coffee and a few savory items. Staff here are super friendly and helpful. The quality of the baked goods here is excellent and I couldn't tell it was vegan at all. Loved every bit of it. Would come back here anytime. Rare to find bakeries that make vegan baked goods and this would make it quite unique not just in Sydney but around the world :-)

I grabbed a Nutie donut from a (temporary?) store in the food court on Pitt Street. They have…read morerandom pop-ups all the time, but this one looked pretty established. Anyway, I had seen this gluten-free, vegan, cookie monster donut alllll over instagram and I'd been craving it for days - well, more like weeks. I was in the CBD today and knew that my time had come. I found the store and oogled all of the donuts on display. The cookie monster donut was there and it was calling my name. The other donuts looked amazing as well, but to be honest, I needed that cookie monster donut in my life like yesterday. The others just couldn't compete at this stage. I ordered the cookie monster donut so quickly, the guy behind the counter seemed surprised that I didn't have questions or ask for recommendations. But hey, I am just a strong independent woman, and I know what I want. He wrapped up my little monster into a cardboard box and I was on my way, trotting down Pitt Street, dodging cars, to get the instagram photo I'd been dreaming of - my little monster in front of the Sydney Harbour Bridge (can you tell I'm not from Sydney?!). I snapped my photos so quickly and then started tearing apart that donut right on the wharf. It was delicious. The consistency is more cake-like than donut-like, which I am guessing is because of the lack of gluten. Either way, if I didn't know it was gluten-free, I wouldn't have guessed. It was amazing. I highly recommend getting yourself a Nutie donut at some point in your life (or your trip to Sydney). I can assure you, that won't be my last Nutie donut.

Old-fashioned milkshake anyone?…read more Ever noticed that no matter how much things change, you will always love the food you had as a child? My cousin always preferred making her own milkshake from stirring ice-creams till they melted away, as milkshakes are otherwise very liquidy and watery. But, none of that at Krispy Kreme. Here, their milkshakes are thick and creamy and tasty! I bet, if she had one here, she would probably sue them for stealing her concept! Available in Chocolate, Strawberry, Caramel, Vanilla and Banana. I've tried the 3 oldest flavours - Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry. Love them all. Krispy Kreme has a very good deal in summer for milkshakes and doughnut combos. Definitely looking forward to trying their Caramel this season..
