Excellent coffee, friendly staff, eclectic decor (the wallpaper is particularly enjoyable) and terrific food. Impossible to fault.

These people care about the bean and how it’s prepared. There’s a friendly vibe and an interesting food menu. It’s a big place and can get noisy. Bike-positive: there are racks *inside*. Hard to find, so make sure decafsucks is there to help!

Friendly staff and quality croissants accompany the Lavazza coffee at this charming West Village café. My doppio (“double espresso” in NYC parlance) was strong and smooth. Milk-based coffee drinks, both hot and cold, do big numbers it seems, but the bra…

Not a coffee per se, but the Espresso Martini on offer at the Balcony is pretty unbeatable. Two shots + a vodka martini will leave you shaken *and* stirred. Great food too.

Imposing stone building with a brick fireplace inside. Quality espresso served by a friendly person lurks within. Tasty breakfast also served, superior to most on the South Coast. Go there on a Saturday morning and explore the Moruya markets afterwards.

Flawless espresso served in an lovely thick-rimmed cup. Great service in an excellent brasserie environment

67 Duncan St, Braidwood NSW 2622, Australia Nambawan Coffee Haus

Just off the main road, definitely worth a look. They know what a doppio is and it came out warm and smooth: partner’s latté also reportedly good -and accompanies by a couple of smarties. Nice sandwiches also available and a range of South Pacific and A…

Lovely smooth doppio: rich, tasty. Extra star for ambience.
