Overall it's a tiny place but there are plenty of spots outside to sit and enjoy your food and coffee. I ordered the ham and cheese croissant and a latte. The croissant was delicious, a perfect breakfast. The coffee was hot and perfect on a chilly morning and had just the right amount of milk. It was so good I ordered one to go, with an almond croissant. It was the best decision made on this trip. The almond croissant was out of this world, maybe it was the powdered sugar, or maybe it was the fact it's rum dipped. Either way it was amazing and will be my new breakfast go-to. Don't miss out!

The restaurant itself is on a corner and is really set up for takeout orders. We chose to eat there and were able to snag one of the few tables outside. The restaurant is very busy so it's best to know what you want when getting to the order counter. We tried the Classic Beef pie and one that had beer, beef and mash. Both were actually quite tasty. We tried them with and without sauce (sauce is on the side). I liked the sauce - not a ketchup (or tomato sauce as the Aussies call it) but close to it - my wife did not. The pies were quite flavorful and tasty and we were pleased both the the quality and the speed of service.

We had the mascarpone cake which was a pleasant sensation of texture and flavours. Mascarpone layers interlaced with coconut crisps (not quite crispy anymore since we had ours takeaway) and the strawberry slices came together to deliver a great combination. The cheesecake totally blew me away! Bear in mind that I had this takeaway at least 2 days after it was bought. Even then, the cheesecake slice was still beautifully moist and smooth. With just a hint of lemon/lime, the cheesecake delivered a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess! Cookies from Lorraine's were really good too! So so so glad our friends bought us these takeaway as I will definitely be looking it up next time I'm back in Sydney!!! Two thumbs up!!!

I'll name just some of the things on show- sumptuous squares of marshmallow, multi-coloured macaroons, delicate meringues, baby chocolate mousse cones, flourless chocolate cake and champagne infused trifle. Wow. There were even gold-leaf decorated cakes and a Sydney specific one called the 'The Opera Cake,' like it! There's a whole load of blurb about the founder of this bakery, and it's sister one in Woolloomooloo, which includes the words 'Masterchef' and 'award winning,' so you know you're in safe hands with this one. Though I have to mention the amusingly teenage shop assistant! Amongst all this baked finery he sat there looking ever so 'too cool for school' texting away on his phone during my entire visit! Clearly he's not as caught up in the whole thing as I was! Expensive? Hell yes, but if you're into patisseries this shouldn't be missed.

Nice looking baked goods with a tight seating area. Too bad the taste of the food did not match the appearance. The chocolate croissant had about a snack size candy bar's worth of chocolate in it.

Haven't been back to either of the aforementioned shops since then. I always seem to get a combination of some of my favorite items: red bean buns-not to be confused with their red bean "paste" buns, which are thicker and sweeter-, custard buns, egg tarts, plain polo buns, and taro polo buns. There's all range in price $1.00 ~ $2.00, and I definitely prefer their versions to the ones found in other shops as these ones are less sweet and more generous with filing. Also, please be on the lookout for their pre-close specials, where they bag a few assorted items for a hugely discounted price in late afternoon around 5-6pm!

The iced mocha was good but the iced strawberry matcha was flawless. The strawberries were so fresh and the matcha was just perfect itself. Great combo together! My husband had the free range eggs on toast and I had the eggs Benedict. His was delicious but the eggs Benedict was amazing. The crispy kale really sold me as it was delectable in each bite. Eggs were poached to perfection and the truffle hollandaise was just delicious. Couldn't have had a better experience if we tried!

For a larger party, coming in with a reservation was convenient since they are pretty busy and change tables often. Service staff were efficient and very friendly. Ordering was easy as well. Their seasonal specials is definitely worth the look over. I had the peanut butter shake and although it didn't look it, it tasted very much like peanut butter in liquid form. I also got to try the summer breeze watermelon salad. That was refreshing. It had a mix of greens, dressing, feta and a crisp prosciutto. I've never had prosciutto served fried; it was delicious. The whole piece married well, and I wish I knew the background of how it was created. I loved every bite! Although the place was crowded, it can still be intimate. Besides indoor seating, they also have a patio and seating outside.
