Cat & Cow Coffee

Cafe

👍 Cat & Cow Coffee is a little corner shop cafe in Randwick that is passionate in promoting themselves to be Zero Waste. This concept extends to not using plastics, as well as reusable coffee cups and dine in if you can. During the COVID19 regulations, I’m sure this is very hard, though they are doin...

Miss Carter

Cafe

👍👍 Breakfast was amazing, coffee was a little bitter for my liking, but still good. What struck me most was the familiarity with so many customers. I witnessed so many (obv regular) customers who were not only known by name, but the staff spoke with them like old friends. It was heartwarming to see a b...

Tailor Espresso Bar

Espresso bar

🫤 Coffee was great, but I expect more from sustainability when buying coffee from a specialty place. Its disappointing to see such a busy coffee shop still using plastic lids with the amount of coffees they serve when fully compostable cups/lids are a readily available

ASLAN Coffee Roasters - The Rocks

Cafe

👍👍 This is a small cafe hide around the corner. Only limited outdoor seating. Staff were very friendly. I had toasted bread with avocado etc, not bad. My partner had a burger which tasted like vegetarian one.. Anyway, we still appreciated that they opened on Easter Saturday and we enjoyed our time.
