There are two coffee stands within the David Jones Food Court, one very trendy and nice, which I have visited often to be always disappointed, and this one, at the bottom end of the Food Court, that offers better coffee and better service.

I go there mostly to grab a coffee when I am in the malls or browsing around David Jones and I crave a really good coffee that is creamy, consistently well prepared, and strong without being bitter.

The girls attending to the place are always delightful, and very fast and smiley no matter the many customers they have to attend to.




The place only has five stools to seat around, which are usually taken, so ordering is always a matter of you being in point, around the display cabinets or over somebody's shoulder, trying to catch the waitresses' attention.

The salads are interesting a priory, but they have always looked dry and unappealing to me, so I have never feel tempted to order any. They have a small selection of cakes, which are average.

This café has the advantage of being subject to David Jones' opening hours, which are extended with regards to most cafés in the city. So the place is perfect to grab a coffee at awkward-late times in the city centre.

To me, this is mostly a take-away café - a very good one.
