    Delicious coffee but the smashed sandwich / avocado toast was quite underwhelming. Loved the portion of avocados but it was Simple and boring!! It certainly needs seasoning and additional ingredients

    Avo smash is popular but the best thing on the me I is the cured salmon sandwich. Great cold brew and the cookie that comes with the hot drinks is delicious!

    Far too many good options for just one visit, I'll definitely be coming back. The flat white, Vegemite toast, avocado toast, and avocado omelet were all amazing

    The Smash was an amazing breakfast. Really good coffee as well, and they serve Australian flat white and piccolo.

    Small space and no lunch menu available on weekends. Get the sweet uncle fred: toasted banana bread with ricotta, strawberries, honey, and toasted almonds.

    Try the Smash for breakfast: smashed avocado on toast with lemon and chilli flakes. Have it with an egg!

    The chicken + squash + arugula salad is a lunch I get at least once a week. Absolutely lovely with a hefty amount of dark and white chicken meat 👌🏼

    The flat white is obviously amazing, but come for breakfast and impress whoever you bring with. Outstanding everything.

    My first stop from the LGA airport for avocado toast and a latte. ☕️ Well worth it. Great food, pastries, and service.

    Just opened today! Delicious menu and friendly staff. Try the Sweet Uncle Fred--toasted banana bread with ricotta, strawberries, honey, and toasted almonds--and a piccolo latte. Happiness.

    A great little Australian inspired cafe in the heart of manhattan. Awesome avo-toast. Check the sun dried coffee.

    Awesome layout, delicious espresso, and super friendly baristas with Australian accents. What more could you ask for? (Maybe a location anywhere but Midtown.)

    Flat white is my favorite. All the food is delicious. Place gets super crowded and aggressive which is annoying. Try & go off peak times.

    top 3 flat white in the city 👍🏼👍🏼 too small for working - even eating is a bit uncomfortable due to small tables. but get FW to go and savor it while walking around the city!

    Uses rotating counter culture coffee. Piccolo with olive oil cake makes for the perfect breakfast. Avocado feta smash is great too.

    Iced latte is amazing. Staff are great. Lunch is a hidden gem here. Wasn't a fan of the avocado toast but everything else is phenomenal.

    Get The Smash for avocado toast on steroids & a proper flat white (less milk than a latte).

    If you are in to cold brew this is the best in midtown east, and trust me I'm obsessed with my iced coffee. Right up there with Joes and Birch.

    Convenient for those commuting. Avocado smash is good but no different than what you’d make at home & yogurt is dec. If you’re seeking legit coffee you’ll be happier with Birch Coffee a few blocks up.

    Amazing place in the midtown east for quick bites. Gets super crowded though, and very limited seating. Not an ideal study space.

    Best looking PBJ sandwich ever! And these Aussies sure know how to make great espressos.

    Midtown gem. Ask for a cortado and pair it with the banana bread. They can toast it for you.

    Undercounter Espresso Machines by Modbar are rather unique. Coffee great, food great, Aussie chaps behind the bar pretty great too. Winner.

    Amazing avo toast. The place is a little small, but you’ll find a spot as there is a fast turnover.
