Been looking for an excuse to try out The Station in Wahroonga since it took over from the previous…read more(forgettable) cafe, and was interested to see it's a Gabriel cafe. While there was no single origin coffee on offer, the mac I had was surprisingly good. Character notes other than chocolate and nuts are rare in blends from the larger roasters, but this one managed to avoid the over roasted taint, and still retain a nice blend of sweetness and acidity. Obviously I would prefer a black coffee option like a single origin coffee, but this cafe is finally a viable option in Wahroonga. Passion: 7/10 Crema: 7/10 Coffee: Gabriel

So after hitting the Butcher Block, my friends recommended the Station, which is just round the…read morecorner. In all honesty I prefer the Butcher's Block - but this cafe does come at a close second. The coffee here is from Gabriel's. And sadly no single origin beans are on offer. The brew a nice cup either way. But I think the pull here is not the coffee, but rather the food. The food here is a good - I've only come for breakfast. They generally don't do any take away food, so this is more of a sit down place. The beacon, egg and avo toast is good, and the homemade oats are really good. Just a warning this place is small, and most of the times the tables are reserved. So either reserve before hand or be prepared to wait for a table. The staff here are friendly, and constantly apologize to you if you are waiting. So even though not as good as the Butcher's Block, it is still worth a visit.

A glass cabinet of freshly baked goods greet you at the counter. There are three Pottery Green Bakers located on the North Shore of Sydney - one in Gordon, Lane Cove and this one in Turramurra. This is my second visit to Turramurra's and both times there has been a queue out the door for takeaway coffees and baguettes. If you are looking for a table, go around the queue and ask one of the friendly staff. They will whip you up a table (inside or out) in no time. It's table service too. Good strong coffee - I ordered a strong regular and it nearly knocked my socks off! My friend has the baked eggs every time he comes here - which is weekly; my other friend always goes eggs her way, scrambled with a side of bacon; I've gone for the provincial board which was delightful. The crowd is mixed - young, old, families, couples and friends. Basically a nice café for everybody.

Would definitely go back to try other items on the menu. The best part of the meal was the iced chai smoothie. That was perfection.

The coffee is outstanding and I just knocked over the best bacon and egg toastie I have had today. Actually it probably beats every B&E toastie I've had all week, hell, all year. Three Williams is the only place that can compete. Great place !

I recommend their huge chocolate chip salted cookies. Delicious!

Monday Morning is a lovely, cute café popular with the locals because of its comfortable, clean…read morespace and welcoming vibe. All the food was demolished by everyone and the sliders proved to be a popular choice for most. Everything was very fresh and delicious with beautiful plating. The Green Bowl is a vegan dish so actually originally doesn't come with eggs, and is made up of all sorts of greens like kale, asparagus, avocado, peas, cucumber, etc. I've heard from somewhere kale being described as angry lettuce, it needs to be tamed to be delicious, and I couldn't agree more. Here it was incredibly tame and cooked perfectly to be enjoyed with all the other ingredients and turned out to be a very healthy, delicious bowl of goodness. Kind of like eating a garden; a green garden. And of reasonable price and quantity.

This place gets 4 stars if you ignore the coffee. If I was assessing the coffee this would only be…read more3 stars. So in summary, you come for the food and the cafe atmosphere, however, there is better coffee in other places. Sadly they serve Publo & Rusty beans. Now in the past P&B would have raised high hopes, however, recently their blend has consistently been disappointing. So, in other words, the coffee was average at best. Yet, saying that, the food and serve here is quite good. This is a very local cafe - and so not overly hipster. Which is a good thing. This place is extremely busy at peak times. However, food is served quite quickly - which is impressive. Also the service is lovely and polite. So it makes a great place to come for brunch. But again you might be prepared to wait.

From the outside this new addition to the area looks like a small little takeaway store, but like…read morethe tardis ... it appears to be bigger on the inside. I am kind of amazed that yet another cafe would open up in this area given the existing mass of options already available but perhaps they have their own niche. Where the other cafes are quite large and serve a wider range of food options, this somewhat smaller cafe can focus more of the coffee. Given that this is their focus, it is great to find that they indeed make a great cup. Finally receiving a mac not overwhelmed with milk makes Fridley a happy camper. :-) Cafe Summary ------------------------ Passion for Coffee - 8/10 Coffee beans - Columbus Crema (1=burnt, 10=velvet) - 8/10 Special coffees avail? - N/A

Meet the new kid on the block…read more Columbus Coffee hails from New Zealand, a pretty far cry from the leafy surrounds of Wahroonga. But this Kiwi had better be ready for a dance off, for the village already boasts beans from Campos, Danes and Toby's Estate. They've started out well. The staff are relaxed, friendly and obviously proud of their product. They've also matched the (annoyingly) inflated Wahroonga prices. $4 for a large skim cap - would you ever pay that in the CBD? But Columbus also comes with some serious game. The coffee is silky smooth, with hints of caramel and its served at the perfect temperature. And while setting up next door to Pastadelli is a clear shot across the bow, I think Columbus might just have what it takes to conquer Wahroonga.
