I read that this place is something of a local landmark and/or institution, and their website seems to confirm this - though this could always be bias. Walking in here though I do remember this place featuring in an episode of the Australian TV series "Rake". Ah, Cleaver you're so doomed... Excuse me, I digress.
Piccolo offers a range of foods from breakfast to light meals and some lunch-y options. Haven't tried their foods though.
Coffee is a bit disappointingly so-so. Hope the mob won't mind me writing this, For a landmark I would've expected more flavour in my cup. Nothing that really stands out with this coffee *sob-sob*. Plus, I didn't like the fact that my barista was smoking just before. There's something about coffee and hygiene where ciggies don't come in well. So they taught me at barista school. Is coffee better on Sunday mornings? And if so, barista school taught me about consistency as well. *sigh*
On a positive note, it's definitely a place of character with the photos on the wall, it's smallish size with two tables indoors and a few more out on the pavement. Easy to miss or walk past. read more
