Cali Press 1 Denison (North Sydney) — Restaurant in Sydney

The Barista was very rude indeed. I visited to this restaurant today afternoon the very first time hoping for a positive experience trying a different place for a coffee. I just asked 'where can I find the coffee menu'. He replied 'Wait this customer is before'. I was just asking to be directed to the coffee menu Sir.

I would definitely look elsewhere for quality coffee, as it's both more expensive, and more bitter here compared to other coffee in the area, for a sandwich or a acai bowl, it's...

This has been the worst experience I've had at a Cali Press location, and my review is solely based on my in store experience.

While I'm a fan of the food, customer service and overall experience are crucial parts of the visit. Unfortunately, I've never encountered such poor service before. Not only is this the worst Cali Press outlet I've visited, but it also ranks as one of the worst cafes in Sydney in terms of service. It's disappointing because I genuinely enjoy the food, but the service really let me down.

One specific employee is significantly impacting the store. To be honest, they would be better suited to a non customer facing role, away from direct interaction with people. Their attitude and demeanor are quite concerning, and it's affecting the...
