    Glebe Goodness Bowl
    Sydney P.

    Althought a super tiny space, the outdoor/indoor environment and nice stuff definitely make up for the tiny size. All the food is delicious and relatively healthy with lots of dairy free and gluten free options. Great spot for brunch!

    Chicken sandwich
    Hayley D.

    Best chicken sandwich I've ever had! Seating can be a bit tricky at times, so I tend to just get take away. You can easily boil in the sun on a hot day so take care in where you sit. The food is absolutely delicious and well worth a visit. Bit of a downer is that they only take cash, thankfully 7/11 is across the road with an ATM machine.

    Breakfast plate + rose-berry smoothie
    Christine C.

    The staff are just wonderfully friendly even though the cafe was packed and it took us 10 mins to be seated. Their breakfast plate is great and very filling! All their food seems fresh and well made. However, I wasn't a huge fan of the Rose-berry non-dairy smoothie that I ordered which I think was a bit overpriced (at $8.50). I wouldn't recommend that if you want something sweet. But if you like superfood smoothies and green smoothies (they had one of those too) then I'm sure you'll like it. In summary, it's a very "aesthetic", tiny cafe with a cute vibe that suits Glebe perfectly. It's a great place to go for lunch after a day at the markets. Also, their food looks great in Instagram photos in case anyone's interested hahaha.

    Latte

    Enjoyed relaxing atmosphere. Perhaps a little too relaxed? It took a long while for someone to take an order after we were told to just take a seat at any table of our choosing. Coffee was fantastic. Good aroma, nice crema and that complex yet enjoyable taste in your mouth. Good coffee but ours were served a tad cooler than we preferred. Highly recommended.

    If it wasn't for this place we wouldn't have wandered down to Glebe from the CBD. Make sure you do because Glebe is definitely one of the coolest suburbs in Sydney. Wedge Espresso is a hole-in-the-wall breakfast/brunch place that could be a bit hard to find if you're just looking on the main street. Its unique longitudinal benches that face the road makes for an interesting perspective as you're dining. The staff are extremely friendly and accomodating as well. This is the perfect place to people watch as you're drinking coffee watching people walk and drive past while you're curing your hangover from the night before. Try the homemade juices in the bottles, not only are they yum, they are also YUM. (yes, you know the difference.) I got the Glebe super bowl with extra chicken and salmon, and they were pretty generous with the serving. Not only was the whole salad fresh and delicious, it was hands down one of the best salads I've ever had in my life. It's no wonder this place is rated so highly, it is amazing and so deserving of its praise. Will definitely come back!

    The Wedge Espresso is a quirky little cafe nestled in Glebe that's great for people-watching. Its atmosphere is laid-back, friendly and full of natural light. People often say the hardest thing to do is to be good at the simple things. I think The Wedge Espresso has done exactly that - making everyday magic with the simplest ingredients. There is nothing too special about this place, in fact, it's the simplicity that they do best keeps luring me back. My favourite: The Henry.

    Decent seating area inside, funky corrugated metal walls
    Chris H.

    I had a hard time deciding what to rate this place, tossing up on either 3 or 4 stars. I loved the venue - cozy little espresso bar with more room then I had thought after reading the reviews and looking at the pictures. Corrugated metal along the walls and large open windows with benches that allow a pleasant view of the street scape, great for people watching. The service - great, in a word. The guy that served us was very friendly, happy to talk, and eager to make sure we had everything we needed. Food - I shared the fig and ricotta on sourdough, and it was quite good. I am not sure if it was coincidence, but both of us felt slightly queasy after the snack. As for the coffee: Coffee: Double macchiato Bean: 5 senses Crema: Not bad, could have come through the froth a little stronger 7/10 Overall Taste: Slightly bitter, under-expressed? 6.5/10 Served in: Small glass (+1) Preparation: Apart from the slightly bitter taste it was reasonably well prepared, a nice amount of milk (i.e. not too much), as I mentioned above the crema and froth were a little too layered for my liking, I prefer when the crema really comes through the froth. Apparently from reading other reviews they have some single origin espresso's which I did not try - the service and venue were good enough that I would happily return with a friend and try this next time.

    Iced Milo
    Artemis H.

    Now I don't normally subject myself to so obviously an indie-prolific establishment such as this place but at the time I did require some more than decent food to sustain me through an upcoming 4hr appointment and this cafe was the most convenient, nearby appropriate spot. When I walked in the crowd was expected and half full, but enough space where I didn't have to sit at the people-watching seats. I ordered an Iced Milo and The Henry. The sandwich was well enough, except I misinterpreted that chipotle mayo bite cause it was hotter than expected for someone with zero spicy tolerance. Spicy fans would call it tame, spice wise. Anywho what I'm saying is the don't not order The Henry just because I'm spice bias cause it is nice...sans the spice. And the rocket, I excluded that out too. I pretty much deconstructed a panini to how I make it at home folks so order what you want. Just not my crowd, but food was adequate when I had time to spend.

    It may be unfair of me to review this place, as it only opened its doors to the public at the beginning of this week, but I'm going to touch on it now and return later, if only to get the word out. Wedge is positioned in an awkward little corridor 'building' just off Glebe Point Rd, directly opposite Glebe Public School. They make no apologies for the space and use it well, with a long bench and cream stools lining their large, open bi-fold windows. Their style is stark and trendy, and a seat at this bar is a voyeuristic dream as you watch Glebe pass by your peeping window. The food menu is as petite as the shop itself, made up of a couple of sandwiches , toasts and a bircher. Their drinks menu is far more extensive, with coffee beans by 5 Senses and 'artisan' teas by Tea Craft. I had the Iced Tea (a blend of Ceylon OP, Hibiscus, Rose Buds, Rose Petals and Silver Jasmine sweetened and served over ice - $5) which was very nice, although I wouldn't recommend ordering it if you're thirsty as it could make for one expensive single gulp. You've got potential Wedge, now we're waiting for you to shine.

    Hole in the wall - literally!

    One of the best breakfast places in Glebe for sure. The sandwiches and salads are on another level and the coffee is top notch.

    I got the Glebe Goodness Bowl with chicken and it was the most deliciously satisfying lunch I've had in ages.

It's a Jazz club with live acts every night, its a bar lounge. It's sophisticated dark and intimate. " Once you're inside Step back", says the purple haired door mistress with the voice activated LED t shirt, "and look up". Apparently painted by a famous Sydney artist, there is a huge mural on the ceiling. The place was pumping on Friday night. Jimmy Vargas and Mia Mortal (say it slowly... ) Vargas like a Brian Ferry look-a-like is apparently a self titled 'Croonoir' from San Francisco's cabaret. Mia Mortal has been sashaying the burlesque scene for the past 25 years. The show was a stunner. The Owner Craig was at the door when we walked in, he told us he'd moved up from Melbourne, and had been running clubs like Lazybones for years. He said "If it's not underground, I'm not interested" I liked his Moxie, and I had to concur. The hipster scene seems finally on it's knees with the clientele here being an over 30s crowd. I admit, I felt very relaxed. I even saw a member of a well known Sydney rock band here. If you want to stay ahead of the game? Say Hello to sophisticated class! Lazybones you're doing it right. $10 on the door gets you entry. Wine and Beer are priced reasonably, cocktails at $18 seemed a little pricey, but it looked like top shelf liquor. The menu, while I didnt try it, featured "Bunny Chow" with pick your own topping for around $12 as I recall. There were also Samosas and curries. It's very loud on a Friday night, Adults only. Good for date night or a chilled out trip into sin alley.

We did not have a reservation, but they fit us in as a walk-in at a small coffee table with 2 ottoman seats. Not the most comfortable set up, but I appreciate the cozy atmosphere, almost like you are sitting in someone's very posh and dimly lit den. All the NOLA classics were featured, like Vieux Carre (no likey), old fashioned (likey), and hurricane. There were some twists on the classics as well. I liked the newer house specialties, and ended up having 3 drinks, more than I intended. We snacked on some popcorn chicken, which was nothing special, but very satisfying when hungry. We were also lucky enough to be there when the live jazz band played a brief set, which really set the mood. I took off a star because not every drink was a homerun, and the service was a bit too impersonal for a speakeasy. We had a different server each time. One of my favorite parts of going to a speakeasy is to watch the bartenders work their magic and ask them for recommendations, and if I'm lucky, maybe get an off menu drink. Not quite set up that way here.
