Well, my pallet ain't as great as theirs and that maybe why I enjoyed this place so much. Can't say that staffs were welcoming and friendly, I forgot all that once I put Chicken Schnitzel in my mouth. It was perfect marriage between the cheese and the chicken. Cheese was seductively rich and tasty and so was the chicken. Coffee was mild, not acidic and the aroma was quite soothing. It is now my fantasy to work around here just to start my day with their panini and coffee.

This is a hip and trendy place by nature thanks to the vibe of the people. Weekend breakfast can get pretty busy here, its not unusual if a wait is required for a table. This is a very fun place to be, the staff are excellent and the food is decent. I would prefer to have a larger variety on the menu (because I'm picky), but it's fine the way it is now. Their best sellers are probably their toasted sandwiches-simple, tasty, great price, and chips are served in a cute mini fry basket on the side. Other things worth trying out are their steak, this is a huge slab of meat that is cooked and flavored well. Their garlic bread/dips are also fun. Definitely a great place to catch up with friends, probably wouldn't suggest large groups unless you've got a booking.

I wasn't interested in the tourist traps and Degrave Street was too full on for my mood at the time. Brown Sugar, whilst busy, had a nice little table at the back that welcomed me in with the warm hand of an old friend. Service was friendly and inviting. I felt like a glass of red, they recommended the Crowded House Pinot Noir (2010), a cracking little New Zealand pinot. The menu was probably a little too broad - at least from the perspective of it being hard to choose something, it all looked so good. I went the beans on cornbread. The beans were creamy and perfectly seasoned. The cornbread an interesting base - a little doughy, but balanced perfectly with the beans and some good bacon on the side. I enjoyed the Crowded House so much I went a second glass, so unfortunately didn't get to try the coffee. But I am sure it would have been good. 4/5

The outdoor seating was great on a hot day since there was a breeze, and the location next to the State Library was perfect since we wanted to see the exhibits there. Highly recommended!

A small selection of baked goods on counter. Menu consists of wraps, burgers and a handful of brekkie items. Despite being a small menu it caters to all tastes. My friend got the small victories sandwich which is bacon fried egg tomato in slices of bread. He inhaled it and liked the freshness from the tomato. I had the lamb wrap with pulled succulent lamb, refreshing pieces of cucumber and tomato, delicious undertones of the sauce and complementary sourness and crumbly texture from the feta. The wrap itself was a thin white wrap. I devoured mine too and the hot crinkly cut chips were a bonus Our coffees were robust yet creamy. Great value for money. Good friendly service.

Go further in and find the green oasis in the courtyard at the back - perfect on a sunny day. Feeling a little worse for wear? Grab a Bloody Mary or some strong coffee from Seven Seeds. The fresh OJ is delicious, but at $6.50 the "large" wasn't all that generous. It was mostly ice and foam. The bircher is legit. Oats mixed with with almonds, nutmeg, loads of berries and rosewater spiked yoghurt. The $12 pricetag and pretty pink hue makes me want to eat it every day. The smashed avo on sourdough ($11) comes with the option of an additional tomato salad or broadbeans/ goat cheese combo for an extra $4. We went with the broadbeans in attempt to get more roughage, though it was more cheese than broadbeans. Oh well, it's the thought that counts, right? With a great booze list and loads of brunchy options available until 3pm, I can imagine this as a great Sunday session location when you need just a little more than a hair of the dog.

The cacao nibs bowl with its cacao almond milk though a beautiful dish with edible flowers, berries, sunflower seeds, goji berries, and crispy orange was cold to the bone, the almond milk was watery and didn't complement the dish.
