They have moved from their former charming location at the back of William St, in Arcade 189, to this new charming location inside the New Edition Book Shop. They have also organised a nice outdoor seating area on the footpath, really charming, which attracts passers by, book lovers beyond their usual bunch of loyal customers.
Their coffee is bland and tasteless and uses Toby Estate's beans. The aroma is certainly good, so I don't know why the taste is missing! It is always in the list of most popular cafés in the CBD, but I think that can be explain for the fact that they offer a wonderful service, and the barista and his assistants are very welcoming and nice to any customer. To e honest, there are much better coffee in at least three different places around Urbanistar, which are favoured by coffee lovers, who want their coffee to taste of coffee, to start with, and to have certain level of creaminess and consistency..
I haven't tried their food.
It is a pity that the guys are so lovely, but the coffee doesn't invite to spend your money in their place.
They offer 3$ coffee to dining-n customers, which is a terrific price for a coffee in the CBD.
