Primo Coffee. 256 Chapel Road Sth, Bankstown.

Think café, milsons point.
Think café, milsons point. Primo coffee. I’ve often walked past this galley-style cafe: kitchen down one wall, seating down the other side.

Unusually for North Sydney, reminiscent of fish-caf in Newtown, there’s a lot of garlic strung from the roof. Brasilia espresso machine. Coffee […]
Café maison, neutral bay
Café maison, neutral bay Primo coffee. Lots of concrete, and using the outdoor furniture for indoors and outdoors. Friendly staff, happy to make a lunch recommendation. Coffee is above average, nothing award winning, but exactly what you’d expect to look at the place. Reasonably priced, considering the location.

A mix of ages are breaking fast here, or stopping for a coffee and a chat. Coffee arrives promptly: the latte is all head, and comes with a […]
