Knead Patisserie
Milk was a bit scorched and my flat white was a lot stronger than the norm, otherwise quite drinkable. Really lovely pastries. The shabby chic furniture is cute but really uncomfortable.
Coffee is average. Drinkable but not much better than instant, in my opinion. They use, from memory, a “premium” blend of Lavazza. Cosmorex would suit their scene a bit more and maybe a better machine.
Good staff.
I go here frequently for their pastries and tarts. The bear claw is a yummy cinnamon and chocolate tasting croissant. The snail has the perfect amount of cinnamon and raisins. And they get creative sometimes - the zuchinni and marmalade cake is delicious!
Love it! Coffee is very good - and the creme brulee tarts are to die for!
Coffee is consistently better than most and the frangipani tarts are to die for.
The coffee here is not bad: espresso’s a little thin. On the other hand, the baguettes are incredible, the best I’ve had outside France. So, with amazing bread and average coffee, they’re replicating the Paris experience perfectly.
Patisserie at the belconnen markets. Long black is pretty decent. Raisin scroll is ridiculously good.

Good, strongly flavoured flat whites (possibly a bit too hot). Nice hot chocolate - not too sweet.

Friendly and casual, but I don’t think these guys get too many espresso drinkers. Too thin. Tamp harder. The Jindebah beans don’t help. It’s only a few hundred metres to Beppe’s at the markets. Go there.

I wish it tasted as good as it looked. Also I really dislike cups with handles for midget fingers!
