Such great spot to enjoy coffee and cakes. The staff was super knowledgeable about coffee and…read morecakes and I really enjoyed his lectures on menus they served. We ordered a long black, flat white and green tea. They were great. The server was from Albania and he was so kind and friendly. He reminded me of Robin Williams. I love the vibe and will come back again.

chocoholics ahoy - this is your Mecca!…read more A fancy chandelier light cafe with a passion for chocolate and chocolate based happiness. Sink into a comfy brown leather couch as you decide which treat you will try today.... This is a place worthy of a visit on 'cheat day'! They have a range of desserts including pancakes, macaroons, fondu and cakes! They also will serve you tea with your cakes or if you prefer a tasty cocktail (try the love-tini)! This is a popular place in the dining district and worth checking out if you have room after dinner!

This place is extremely popular. So I thought that I'd give it a go. This place is alright but…read morehonestly not worth the amount you pay for it. Toast with Avo and egg is $20. For that amount I expect the breakfast to be slightly life changing - and if you know, my life hasn't changed. But most importantly let us discuss the coffee. The coffee at Small Town at Avalon is a lot better than here. Saying that, the coffee isn't bad. It's just not great. Even the food. I think you can get better food for cheaper at Coffee Brothers or Small Town. It is a nice sitting area and has a great vibe. But honestly I'll probably head somewhere else.

Wasn't too busy when we came and drinks were yummy! We asked to put a few croissants aside for us to take when we leave and they were very accommodating! Able to split the bill here as well if you need to pay on different cards. There's some street parking nearby if you aren't coming from the neighborhood. They also have a bathroom but it is outside of the actual building, they will give you instructions on exact location upon asking. Would definitely come back!

It's small and homey and there are old photos and signed prints and posters on the wall, snaps of local personalities and the like that let you know these dudes are up to their neck in the local community, not above it or behind it but right up in there man, and for a cafe that's the only place to be. Has that for locals, by locals vibe and that's okay with me. And the coffee? Top notch. Really and truly bro.

I'll definitely come back until I've tried all their sandwiches. Today, I had #7, suggested by…read moretheir barista, and love it! Swapped the turkish bread for dark rye, and it made a difference. The combination of salami, olive paste, cheese, artichoke and greens was an explosion of taste in my mouth. And, it was served on a plate (not a bloody chopping board, as every other cafe seem to deem appropriate these days) - extra points! The coffee was strong and not at all bitter. I had 2 :) Table service and friendly staff completed a great experience.

This place is on my shortlist for places to go for coffee and avocado toast in Sydney! The…read moreShortlist is located about a block and a half from the Redfern Station, along Abercrombie Street. It's tucked behind a garage door that allows for tables to spill out on the sidewalk. There's ample seating indoors and a back area, so you're sure to find seating. They offer coffee, all espresso style, it seems. So if you need a flat black, this is the place to go. The food was delicious, and the avocados were fresh, with a drizzle of lemon oil. Delicious! The sourdough was amazing and the service was fantastic.

Yeah, this place is pretty awesome, it's a shame that I really can't drink coffee any more. Well, that's a bit of a furphy, but I usually pay for it for the rest of the day. Yeah, I love this place. I can even go out the back away from everybody else and actually read my book, and have a table all to myself as well. Makes me want to live in Redfern - actually, no it doesn't.

I drop by here now and then as I have a work site nearby but popped in on a Sunday morning at 8am and the place was boomin! Locals are swinging by for some great coffee and decent eats no different to what is being dished up in the inner city. Prices are the same as what you would expect from an inner city hipster cafe so its not cheap.
