JaphAugust 27, 2016Best coffee in Sydney! Great ristretto, excellent pour over. Lovely service too. Make sure you try the banana bread with espresso butter!
Sara RadakovicMay 9, 2019Great place for lunch, I really enjoyed my avo toast - one of the best I have had lately ! Little bit overcrowded during weekends so prepare yourself for a long line
Tammi KwokOctober 26, 2014Get the Good Food Month Breakfast Club menu. For $20 you get a dish of smoked trout, avocado and poached egg parcel on organic quinoa, herb, nut salad, watermelon shot and honeycomb geisha cold drip.
Roisin O'NeillNovember 24, 2018Gluten free goodness bowl was delicious and nutritious! Their avocados are really creamy. The coffee was awesome and you should try their kangaroo sausages- so tasty. Superb service to boot! Love!
kate kMay 26, 2017Beanie Man toast with lardo is awesome - the marjoram salt adds a lot of dimension. The black garlic paste is also very flavoursome. It doesn't look huge but it'll fill you up.
Neel HajareJanuary 10, 2020Batch brew is pretty good (no individual brew though) and the mushroom toast was good too
Ignacio GimenezJanuary 18, 2018Cool vibes. Excellent for breaky/brunch. Banana bread and coffee are super good.
Gavin BSeptember 22, 2015Dripping with hipster vibe, this place clearly knows how to attract a coffee loving crowd. With the house blend & the single origin of the week, I ended with serious options paralysis.
Jenny JaakkolaMarch 15, 2015The black metal brekkie is absolutely incredible!! Coffee is also awesome, but the brekkie really surprised me!! Cool venue and vibe and good location. Gets crowded though bcs of popularity!
Malea GadourySeptember 3, 2014Great coffee, excellent breakfast! I got the avo & feta on toast and this was the best breakfast I had in sydney during my trip.
Lars GinnerupSeptember 23, 2018People queue for coffees here. Food is fresh, updated new classics as avo toast with beetroot hummus. Environment thoughtful with steel straws.
Essa SharafJuly 4, 2017Tea is a must! Banana cake with espresso butter is amazing! Avocado toast with beetroot humus was delicious 😎
BommyMarch 18, 2019Lovely sidewalk seating with unpretentious staff. Peanut butter toast with a decaf long black is perfect.
Jon ChooJuly 10, 2015In my short trip to Sydney, I've tried more than ten coffee shops and this serves the best flattie yet.
DaiSeptember 25, 2014The granola is amazing as well as the coffee. In fact get any thing on the menu. Lovely service too
Single OJanuary 5, 2015Sideshow is open Mon-Fri 7:30am-2:30pm for all your takeaway coffee needs. The cafe will be back up and running from Monday the 12th. Happy New Year!
Adam BurrowsApril 18, 2013Widely written about barista hole-in-the-wall outfit near Central/Surrey Hills, and for good reason. I had a pear and ricotta muffin which outshone the coffee.
Elliot ChanceSeptember 9, 2015Great coffee, and if you have the time - some very unusual ways to make it.
- Sara TaylorJuly 16, 2018Tiny little spot, but people cycle through quickly. Excellent vegetarian breakfast options and delicious coffee.
Georg Ph. E. H.September 4, 2014If I have to name the best coffee shop in Sydney it's definitely single origin ! Best coffee in town !
Hyemin JungSeptember 22, 2017Rye toast + @ of so many options available. Blended ice tea collections are scentful
I'm a sucker for their Avo + Persian feta combo. A must with a 65deg egg. Coffee always excellent
Jeff BowenMarch 31, 2023Get “The Flight” (sample three coffees) and the banana bread with espresso butter. 👌
BakaSheeP 램March 11, 2015Coffee are good...can smell the aroma before you reach the cafe. Quiet place and nice spot to chit chat with friends.
Joao FerreiraDecember 2, 2017The best coffee, and the food is amazing as well, be sure to drop by for breakfast.
MiloJanuary 15, 2016Excellent coffee and small bites. Very popular Saturday - best to go early or on a weekday if you can
Stephen GarrettMarch 4, 2020The roasted tomato was a highlight but enjoyed most of the food. (Would pass on the fritter) The batch coffee was fantastic.
Namhee ChoFebruary 1, 2017Their single origin pour over was too light and hot for me. But I loved their avo toast
Gaik IgitkhanianOctober 27, 2014One of the best coffee shops I have ever been to! I paid 24 dollars for a salad and coffee, but it's worth a try.- Nicholas StocksDecember 19, 2017One of the best cappuccinos I've ever had, hands down. Bacon roll is delicious too
- Sher Reen LJuly 31, 2011Excellent coffee, excellent banana bread, excellent muffins. There's nothing to fault at Single Origin!
If you want to start the day happy, then have ice cream for breakfast and order an affogato :) The ice cream is thick and creamy, the coffee rich, aromatic and viscous and the combination just divine!
Andrew EveryNovember 11, 2014Great coffee, friendly team. Top up on beans here and try the savoury muffins..- While there are many wonderful things on the menu here, not least the exceptional coffee, if you're hungry order the Reuben sandwich for lunch. The very definition of delicious and great value too!
