Cornucopia Bakery
Passable coffee. Over-extracted shot of espresso lead to an unwanted bitterness, and milk was done too hot to ~75ºC.
Coffee isn’t really their strong point: the amazing pastries (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) and other baked goods is where they shine. Definitely go here for the bakery. The coffee? Not so much.
They may have the tastiest pastries in the Inner North but their espresso making skills are sorely lacking. Every so often I try a long black from here and every time I’m disappointed. Burnt coffee not so much fun.

Mort St & Elouera St, Braddon ACT 2612, Australia
The long black here is middling to good. A little weak maybe. The breakfasts are excellent so the combination of food and coffee make this a worthwhile option. But if it is just coffee you are after head around the corner into Lonsdale St.

Same great coffee, new location just up the road.
Both food and coffee are on offer, but since this is also their roasting facility, the seating is currently all outdoors underneath umbrellas.

Although I haven’t been to Debacle for a while I do remember popping in there first thing in the morning on my way to work when I worked in Civic and getting some pretty good coffee with nice flavour and a great temperature.
