The best coffee venue I know for so many reasons : coffee is GREAT. The owner is a coffee lover and knows his things about grains ! the staff... oh the staff ! Everyone I’ve been served by (3 so far) have been amazing. They’re so much more than baristas, they are this kind of sunshine-people who do this job because they love human beings and this venue, not for money. They make you feel you’re truly welcome in this house and you’re special. the social concept : the owners are helping refugees and asylum seekers, I think most of the money they make goes to help people. They give them a course / a way to be helpful in this society, independant and proud, then potentially hire them for the catering business they have. At the moment the catering seems to go low so they keep the staff busy by... cooking for homeless people ♥️ (I’m not the best to describe everything they do sorry!) the venue : it’s my favorite place just for the design ... it’s full of books (you can read!) it’s full of art, plants and vintage objects.

Out of the great aspects of this place, I just go there because giving my money to this people has an amazing social impact. If you have consciousness you do a good thing getting your coffee...

Came for brunch in the weekends and it’s a great little spot. It’s someone’s living room so it’s a small space. I guess we came early so not many people were around but as we were leaving there were quite a lot of people heading in. Food is good and very cheap for Newtown and it’s hot chocolate and flat white were pretty good too. Highly recommend this spot. From what I heard the owner wanted to make t into a bookstore but changed mind in the middle and hence the bookstore cafe! Seems like they have life drawings on Thursday nights and otherwise it closes a bit later than the time advertised on...
