    Amazing! Great service, great people (staff and other customers), dog friendly, and amazing food. The decor is cute, food is fresh and coffee delicious. I plan to go here the next 2 days I am in Sydney and then I'll just have to crave it from home. The avocado smash is amazing- loved the one with feta. Toasties are great. Lots of vegetarian combos and everything made fresh so they can accommodate dietary requests. Worth going to, even if it's out of your way.

    I was told that this is one of the best brunch spot and it delivered. We went late on a weekday and had a 10-15 min wait. And wait was well worth it. We sad inside and got a view of the madness in the kitchen, preparing delicious toasties and fast! I don't envy the chefs. We had the prosciutto toastie and open face trout sandwich. The prosciutto toastie blew me away. One of the best ever. The trout sandwich was great too but paled in comparison to the toastie. Got sides of green juice (bottled) and orange juice (glass, made in-house). The coffee drinks hit the spot too. Overall, a must try, if you are in Sydney!

    Beef brisket .... tasty & substantial
    Mick A.

    The food is a real knockout here, and the coffee is pretty damn good too. I really love the casual ambience .... it is tight and small with people on baby stools around little tables; and people look engaged and happy. This discrete laneway is an ideal location for this place. The food is wonderful...consistently so too. The salads for me are the standout. There is the Ocean Trout, the Tuna, the Chicken, Ziad (chickpea) and the Beef Brisket. I can vouch for them all....and if a sandwich is your preference then the Beef Brisket is amazing. This is a substantial sandwich...generous in volume and tasty too; and then the Gypsy Ham is delicious, so too the Salvatori which is an open sandwich with ricotta, tomato and more. You can opt for the Cheese toastie, Chicken or Tuna sandwich all of which are enjoyable. You can do brekkie here too..... Coffee is excellent...you ask and they deliver your wish! The people serving here are great. There is a pride in their food and service, and they are joy to interact with. A Potts Point favourite of mine... .

    Breakfast Rice

    Room 10 is one venue responsible for charming the pants off me and ensuring that Potts Point remains firmly in my top 5 Sydney suburbs. Wander down Lankelly Place and Room 10 is a spot that if closed, you'll miss. Appropriately, there is only room for about 10 people within this cafe. I'd be confident in saying there'd be Double Bay wives who have closets bigger than this cafe. But don't let the size (or lack thereof) deter you from spending time getting acquainted with their velvety house blend or selecting a freshly made toastie or granola (made right behind you on the kitchen bench) from their health-packed menu options. I'd waited more than a year to try their Rice Breakfast. They were closed for renovations the last time I was in Sydney. This combination of quinoa, red rice, stewed rhubarb, blackberries, banana, fig, yoghurt and cinnamon was the answer to a light breakfast I'd wished for. It was fresh, light and filling. Oh and as other Yelpers have mentioned, Room 10 is home to surely some of the friendliest and least "I'm to hip to have a smile on my face" staff I've had the pleasure of talking with in Sydney. For once the expectation I'd placed upon this innocent cafe and it's rice breakfast stood up to my hopes and said, "Challenge Accepted."

    Cute, cosy and intimate with amazing coffee and a thrown together ambience. If you like space this isn't the place to be but it has a great atmosphere with friendly and helpful staff. Good food which you can actually see prepared as seats are available in the kitchen.

    Amazing cappuccino
    Rob P.

    This place lives up to then hype! One of the best cappuccinos I've ever had plus one of the best sandwiches as well... Ham, egg, cheese, and a spicy sauce. So good. I just wish they had wifi, though to their credit Andrew tried to set me up with his phone's wifi hotspot.

    Toastie with Smoked Salmon
    Casey Y.

    I heard a lot of people raving about this place so I had to check it out myself and it ended up being really delicious. I ordered a Toastie with salmon. The sandwich was like an Eggs Benedict un sandwich mode. Everything was perfectly cooked and the poached egg ran down smoothly. One thing that I like was how the sandwich stayed in tact during my whole time eating it. A thing that annoys me is when a sandwich always has their insides pushing out and everything ends up falling apart. Customer service was really nice as well. I really recommend this for brunch!

    Tuna Sandwich and fresh orange juice.

    Super location for a healthy and cheap breakfast. Staff is friendly and fast. When you sit inside, you are basically sitting in the kitchen. We had a avocado sandwich and a tuna sandwich. Both super delicious. Definitely worth a visit when you are near Kings Cross In Sydney.

    best beef sandwich and ham toastie ever!
    Xia Z.

    My wife had beef sandwich and me a ham toastie. both great, best ever, 5 star! The waitress is both enthusiastic and helpful. The location is a bit hard to find. Just trust the Google map and remember there's a 10 sign above.

    So Room 10 is not just a creative name - the entire establishment is the size of a small room. 10 people can fit inside. (Ok fine, so maybe it's a nod to the address, but I'd like to think otherwise.) But what's that old "it's not the size of the ship" adage? 'Cause damn, do the fine folks behind this establishment produce incredible things from such a humble shop. Fantastic breakfast. Incredible coffee. It's a small menu, big flavours, focus-on-the-important-things-because-they're-all-we-have-room-for type of place. And I'm completely into it. It's brilliance, understated. And dare I say - it's the best coffee I've had in Sydney thus far. Indeed, I dare. Get there quick, while there are still seats available... 9 and counting...

    Walking through Kings Cross in the middle of the day is a surreal experience, it's as if the whole world (within the X) went quiet, no longer are there tooting cars, loud clubs, and interrupting bouncers, it's a tranquil slightly off-beat day time adventure. Room 10 conveniently places itself in Potts Point, which is still on the main strip of Kings Cross the notorious night life district of Sydney, if you're unfamiliar. Within a cosy little side street, adjoining hostels and laundromats, is a hole in the wall breakfast & coffee bar. With ample outdoor seating Room 10 does fit more than 10 people - so you can take your extended family of 12. The long L shaped kitchen within the cafe ensures that you always see how/who and what people are ordering. The service is great, and the waitress is always within a metre in this tiny place, constantly replenishing your stock of tap water, and/or coffee. I had the Avo on Toast - and was asked if I'd like the linseed sourdough, which was fantastic! With ample avocado to spread evenly (more than just a green hue) across the toast. Most coffee's look great, and are very carefully constructed, although at the time mine was slightly burnt on the creme. I will go back again, and give them the benefit of the doubt.

    Room 10 is far enough from Kings Cross but still close enough to people watch.

    A first rate breakfast cafe that also sells cute socks…read more Think seriously about your sock collection before you leave. * * * Much of the fare consists of open faced sandwiches. These are open faced sandwiches to die for. Huge. Massively photogenic. (Food photographers - prepare to work your way down the menu.) Fantastic execution. I had the Lamb Eggs - which are lamb kifta, poached eggs and many other wonderful things. My wife had the Wasabi Salmon - which is smoked salmon, wasabi-infused labheh and many other different wonderful things. We were both ecstatic. If you get coffee, go for the house special, simply referred to as Magic. It is a ristretto latte that will make you a ristretto convert for life. Just to be scientific and rigorous, I had a plain old latte right after that. The plain old latte could not compete. Now, of course, the cost of all of that experimentation, is that I have had a week's work of caffeine. I am writing this Yelp review firmly attached to my ceiling. But these are the sacrifices one makes for science. * * * Good drinks. Fine breakfast plates. And I even bought Rusty Rabbit wear to take home. * * * Food and clothing are both fundamental human needs. Rusty Rabbit doesn't cover housing ... But Rusty Rabbit covers most of the other requirements for living nicely indeed.
