Cafe Rosso, Victoria Galleries, Sydney CBD

Andronicus coffee. Taking up a lot of the open, undercover space in the Galleries forecourt is this large, friendly-looking cafe. The decaf is really quite good: thick milk, just the right temperature, and pleasant tasting. I haven’t tried much from Andronicus, but I’ll be less shy next time I see the brand.

Gungho Cafe, Haymarket

Calima Coffee. Shop 9, 107-121 Quay Street, Haymarket. I’d walked past this place a few times without realising that coffee could be sold here: the bright colours and pictures of food makes it hard to concentrate on any one visual.
