Every time I visit Macquarie Centre, I like to grab a coffee at this cafe because it's not too bad. However, after a recent experience, I will never go back again. One of the servers was so rude to me, without even apologizing or trying to make things right. But what really disgusted me was witnessing the way the barista treated two ladies in front of me.

Great toast and avocado. Thick big slice. Lots of tomato feta and avo. Definitely not a stingy size. Great coffee and good service. Yes. We will see you soon.
Things to try:
Breakfast - Pulled Beef / Breakfast Burger / Breakfast board (Poached eggs are cheap at $2 exxtra each)
Cake - Have the Nuts Bite and Rose
There is a wide variety of scrumptious desserts to choose from, making it difficult to decide. Every day offers a different selection to enjoy.
The carrot cake is to die for its very moist and not too sickly sweet, goes perfect with a coffee which they also do a great job with !
