I’ve actually driven from the other side of the city where I work, just for the coffee… Expresso wasn’t quite hot enough but Cappuccino was excellent.
Great coffees and prompt drinks service; fantastic to have such a good option in this area on a Sunday especially. There is a limited food menu, but at busy periods even bagels are very slow to come out - order only if you’re in a two-coffee mood.
Best long mac ever - absolutely perfect.
I love sitting outside on the garden box.
Open on Sunday.
Brilliant!
Had the best service experience here:
I went to order for my girlfriend’s mother, a large, skim, flat white with half a shot of coffee. In my embarassment I neglected to mention the skim part. She really didn’t want to drink full cream, and the waiter/barista offered to make her a new one without hesitation.
Totally my fault and situation rectified with a smile. Such a great place.
Fabulous coffee, fabulous people, I’d love this to be my local. They did my preferred doppio ristretto to a tee.
I think I’ve found my new preferred cafe.
Brilliant coffee! The flavour on this one here is nice and strong, perhaps owing to taking closer to 40ml than 30ml of a doppio ristretto. A brilliant blend with a distinct lingering taste.
Funky decor and staff. Very friendly and happy to chat about their product (they are certainly passionate about it).
About 6km from my office but that won’t stop me from coming back!
5 stars.
Not just the good coffee - its open after 4pm on Saturday and the service is unique! Love it.
It really is a good thing when the barista steps out to offer you 2 different espresso’s and asks you for your preferred shot…
These guys really do care about making superb coffee and the bottomless portafilters on their La Marzocco ensure the fattest, creamiest crema you’ve ever had ;)
Go there. They are awesome. Boom!
This new Canberra café is the most stylish, lavishly built hole-in-a-wall I’ve seen. Thankfully, their coffee matches their fit-out. Strong and rich, and clearly made with a lot of care.
On a sunny day, it’s great to sit outside around the raised garden bed and take in the lovely New Acton surrounds.
Right now, they serve coffee only, but I’m told there will be some food offerings to come.
Definitely worth checking out!
Deliciously strong and smooth coffee. Open seven days. (Bless them for being open on a Sunday when good coffee is so hard to find!)
They don’t serve any food and it’s very hole-in-the-wall. So it’s best visited when you’re on the run. They’ve only been open for a week so the food thing may change.

Really nice coffee today! (Maybe I’m just lucky? This was a flat white.) Looks like they’ve changed to Ona beans now, which they also have on sale.
The food seems a little bit $$ and pretentious for what it is. Lunchtime DJ is very cool, but noone else…

Excellent coffee from a very cool hole in the wall in New Acton

This newly opened bicycle-themed restaurant serve up delicious simple pizzas and coffee to match. Their blend is rather sweet coffee, no robusta here methinks, and wonderfully oily such that it lingers on the tongue.

It’s just kind of all right. Their long black is drinkable and not bad enough to make you want to lie down in the street and give up. Not really any better than that though.
