White Horse Coffee, Sutherland

White horse coffee. 137 Flora St, Sutherland.

It’s taken me a long time to get to visit this place when it was open. I’ve seen its shuttered doors on three separate occasions. They’re only open on weekdays, and they have a tendency to be closed over the Christmas holidays.

Walk in past the outdoor seating, past the communal table with its laptop-using customers and locals who are gathered for a conversation and a coffee, and you’ll reach the counter. One staff member is just greeting people and getting the orders right.

Order a decaf latte, and they make it up in very quick time: there’s a decaf grinder, and although the large decaf latte ($4) is dominated by milk (and hence loses any sense of nuance), it’s a drinkable, quality cup.

  1. Now this place is worth the 20 min drive for my caffeine hit. They just get it right every time. Nice :o)

  2. Hi Dave,

    I’m jsut interested, was the large Decaf latte the only coffee you ordered?

    Isn’t any large latte going to lose a certain amount of clarity?

    Anyhow, I’d been keen to hear what you thought about the black coffees?

    There’s also a new coffee @ Caringbah called “Silk”.. Apparently worth a shot.. or a double shot 🙂

    Thanks for the blog.

    Cheers,

    Dave
