Description

This tiny cafe in Surry Hills is a popular spot among locals working in the area. With only about 10 seats, half of which are outside, the space is cozy but stylish. The coffee is decent, though not necessarily remarkable. However, the real highlight is the specialty cakes, such as the caramel disk with hazelnut chocolate. The cafe is known for its focus on great coffee, with a barista who confidently claims to make the best piccolo in town. The atmosphere is described as small and cozy, making it a great spot to enjoy a long black while listening to some vinyl. Overall, visitors appreciate the refined blends and quality service at this coffee roaster/cafe, making it a standout choice in Sydney's competitive coffee scene.

Jan15 - Went there for a coffee and got free muffins!! The coffee was good and it has nothing to do with the free muffins. This is a rather small place which is not a bad thing. thewhatsupguy.in

I visited a few times and it was a great experience. They are special coffee roasters and make great work in Sydney. This place is small and focuses on your best, the coffee. Try your great coffee!

Clicked on this tiny cafe in Surry Hills to get a much needed coffee. Looked like a popular place with the people who worked in the area. Literally about 10 seats, with half outside, had a very small room. Coffee was decent, but not memorable enough to become regular.
