    the buckwheat banana bread is eeexcellent. also, they tend to char their bacon to a crisp so if you like yours soft-fried and floppy like i do, you'll have to request that.

    Everything is great here. Brekkie is healthy and filling, the coffee is fantastic and the staff are good Aussie blokes. What's not to love?

    Great coffee, both the espresso and the long black came out unburnt and very low acidity

    Airy cafe with healthy foods. Coffee was not my fav but the passion fruit yogurt in the granola is amazing

    The vibe resonates Bondi beach chill. Lovely place with fantastic juice, grub and coffee. The exposed brick wall interior is stellar.

    Got the flat white and avocado toast and it was delicious. I added an egg but that was $3 extra. Next time, I can do without the egg.

    Yup, another semi-precious Aussie coffee shop. Feels just like Happy Bones, but with more seating and an expanded menu.

    The breakfast here is fantastic. Consider either the yummy granola or the famous egg-avocado-toast combo

    Avo toast (of course) with an over easy egg. Get their flat white or their outback cap

    Avocado toast with a sunny side up and a flat white next to it. Perfection 🍳

    The Bitches say: A. This place is a hipster, Instagram-loving haven, but the food was anything but overrated. Healthy, delicious & reasonably priced dishes are the main reason to give Two Hands a try. Read more

    It’s good, but not sure if it’s worth all the hype. Avo toast really well balanced in flavors, but too much avocado in proportion to bread. Smoothie was blend.

    If you order the outback cap be sure to read about the tim tam slam. It's the proper way to drink it ;) http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Tam

    Avocado toast gets the spotlight, but the breakfast roll is the secret star of the "let's be healthy" brunch game

    Quality of food here was questionable. Acai bowls seem to be pre-made and our toast on the avo toast is so hard you'll break your teeth!

    Great place. Only complaint is they don't have half and half. If you serve coffee that's a big UGH in my book!

    While the food felt healthy and filling, it wasn't particularly stellar in any way. The açai bowl was tasty but not impressive. The avocado toast with a sunny side egg has a nice spice to it.
