very nice flavour but a little on the weak/milky side first time round, second pass wasn’t too milky but still not giving required buzz. Good when you’re trying to pace yourself :-)

Disappointing.

Hole in the wall place that will obviously live or die by the quality of its coffee. Unfortunately the long black that I had was on the watery side, served up by a grumpy dude. I don’t mind grumpy if it is backed up by a ripper of a coffee. Otherwise it just adds that tingle of annoyance.

Not much more than a hole in the wall, but the best coffee I’ve stumbled across in Canberra of late. Had a smooth, tasty doppio in the intermittent Spring sunshine.

Catering for the serious coffee lover, they put a lot of effort into making you a good brew. Had a cappuccino and is was great if not a little sweet.

Déjà Brew claims to have the best coffee in Canberra, and I’m inclined to believe them; I would consider moving my employ to be closer to this café!

I prize consistency in my coffee, and at this place I’ve been greeted by the same barista every time. He’ll also take a moment to make sure his interpretation of your order aligns with your expectation. Now that is someone who cares.

I was in a piccolo latte phase when I first encountered Déjà Brew, and was that ever lucky for me! Never before have I tasted such silky microfoam. I’ve also since returned for my usual double macchiato, and it did not disappoint.

My only gripe with this place is that it is in a part of Canberra city that doesn’t get much weekend foot traffic. Definitely closed on Sunday, perhaps also Saturday.

    Not sure why they call themselves a café, they’re really just a cupcake shop that happens to serve coffee. The cupcakes were delicious, the coffee not so.

    People weren’t too bad.
    Place was disgusting last time I went there, the bed was damp underneath. Don’t you know you are supposed to air them out?
    There was scum up the walls, the coffee was burnt and tasted like the machine cleaner.

    Likely Canberra’s smallest hole-in-the-wall, Smooth Bean offers some decently made take away coffee at excellent prices. My double macchiato was just $2!

    Not bad, not good. The espresso I had was certainly drinkable but I’m not sure what to else say.
