Lovely little cafe. The service is great even when busy, and the atmosphere of the place is so welcoming. The plants on the tables open the space up and the decorations are hipster chic without overdoing it or feeling staged which is lovely. I only got a coffee to try this place out (standard cap in a mug) and although it was slightly more expensive than my usual at $4.80, the mug size was big enough that its justifiable.
The food menu was limited but sounded lovely. I imagine this is more of a coffee spot + nibbles than a full cafe. The most expensive thing on the menu is the smashed avocado at $13, and theres also an assortment of bagels, jaffles and sweet things.
Side note - the coffee was not as strong as some other places, but I didnt rate this place down because I like it on the stronger side and i know for most people the flavour at this place is what they want.
Theres also a retail section and a barber here although I cant...
Read moreI went here 4 days before Christmas (21st) to purchase coffee beansfor my husband who I stated was very fussy weighed his coffee temperature controlled his coffee and wanted fresh beans.

I told them I knew nothing about coffee and my husband was particular about his beans being fresh and now I've wasted money on a product that mostly won't be able...
Read moreThe team at Capulet & Co are what tie the whole experience together. Waiting for my coffee and food to arrive, I couldn’t help but notice the team would greet regular customers by their first names. It’s something so small, so insignificant, but to those people it starts their day off on such a high note. When your barista remembers your name, I think that’s what movie stars feel like on the daily. They’ve definitely built a community within Sandgate, and it shows by the range of ages of people in the cafe. The team threw in an extra hash brown in my eggs on sourdough, just because, and the coffee was outstanding.
The added surprise of the tomato pesto hiding underneath the sourdough was a welcome addition. A basic eggs on toast was taken to the next level.
Come for the crew, stay for the food and enjoy the coffee while...
