Awww yeah! Dashi broth, fermented veg and pork soup with amazing bread
Emily H.

Let's start with the negatives: this place gets busy as hell at lunch time & has a pretty small menu if your bosses and work friends are picky with food. Now! The positives: the food here is delicious, the daily soups are LEGIT. I'm not one to order soups but these guys are making them like your mum makes and then giving you a slab of brickfields sourdough to eat it with. It's really good stuff! The lamb and salad plates are where I'm at though. They've got these big bowls of interesting salads and they serve two of them with some beautiful slow cooked lamb. So good! The coffee here is a solid 8.5 outta ten - perfect with their spicy salami breakfast roll!

If you can inspire me with a salad then you are doing something right. The lunch options here were fresh, colourful and delicious. They offer an array of salads to be purchased by the scoop, and I believe that the options are on regular rotation. They also have daily soups, kombucha on tap, slow cooked meat sandwiches, good coffee etc. I.e. something for everyone. Granted, it's not cheap enough to make it your regular lunch work spot (probably 15-25$ for lunch) but it is a lovely spot to go to on occasion, or for a lunch with a long lost friend.

I had a lunch box here last week and it was delicious. I ordered the stuffed zucchini with the broccolini and eggplant salad. The meal was presented beautifully and was the perfect combination of ingredients. I also ordered the kumbucha on tap which is always a winner

Trendy modern warehouse style decor with communal seating benches. Food was a hit! Very healthy and a good addition to lunch spots in the city.

Slow cooked pork with roasted spiced cauliflowers and Brussel sprouts

Good lunch find. It's in the lobby of an office building and the salads are great. The soups looked really good too. Fun place.

First impressions count, and GC had me at hello... That 'tash, is to curling what.... Curling is to the winter olympics. Awesome sauce! I fully expect moustache rides will be on the menu if business ever hits the skids. Alas, despite the gleeful charm of the curly coifed one, nothing short of an excellent coffee with character was going to make the all important lasting impression on me and sadly in that area GC disappoints. I gave GC the Soy Latte test and the Long Black test and it just doesn't measure up to other coffee in the area. I like strong coffee with complexity and GC just doesn't have that. It's not the worst but it is very weak despite using the same La Marzocco espresso machine (that Barista's rave about for ease of use) as other places in the area. The service at GC however is very good and to some people that's first priority. So if you aren't too fussy about your coffee and are looking for a smile and a spring in your step from an energetic soul then get your morning fix at GC, and start the day on a happy note.

First time in Australia experiencing the culture and culinary experiences. Please take that into…read moreconsideration when reading this. I also reserve 4 and 5 star reviews for exceptional service with unforgettable dining experiences. The ambience is intimate but also noisy. I will say the coffee here and in Australia in general is some of the best coffee I've ever had. I ordered (2) espresso martinis, pancakes, and the sirloin steak breakfast with a side hashbrown. My pancakes were stone cold but I will say the aesthetics on it made it edible. The pistachio butter cream was to die for. My steak was ok ; for the price I simply just wanted more. I could be wrong but I doubt it was even 6oz. If you have this place on your radar be sure to make reservations. This goes for almost every restaurant in Sydney. My server was Cassie who was very personable and even gave us tips on what to watch out for dining in Sydney.

Nice spot but where do I begin? I'm always torn when coming to a place but not fully experiencing…read moreit. This place was recommended to us by a local family friend. We came in thinking it was just a coffee shop, but it's essentially a restaurant that also has a focus on coffee. They have a full bar and a window to the outside where you can order just coffee and tea to go. As for the interior it's dimly lit and sort of has romantic date night vibes. We essentially only ordered coffee and one person ordered a cake slice. The lychee cake was pretty good per my aunt. A couple people ordered the Coco Loco, which is basically an espresso martini on steroids with Nutella and something like a Ferrero Rocher. I ordered a latte and their Affogato. The latte was very smooth and BI is arguably one of the best I've ever had. Is the Affogato a cheat code because they use like a tiramisu ice cream? You could argue that case. You can also buy their blends of coffee beans, subject to availability. While the latte was very smooth, I can't say it was mind blowing but it was still pretty good.
