Fare "n" square, eden Witham’s coffee. The best place to escape the flies in Eden is indoors, which is something that this café had to offer. On the edge of town, away from the beach, it has a lounge room feel apart from the loud radio that drifts across the indoor space. The grinder runs …

Dee’z place, Merimbula
Dee’z place, merimbula Café aroma coffee. Tiled floor, wooden furniture, and a range of age groups represented in the lunch crowd. Pot plants are hanging from the ceiling. Staff are friendly, if a little stand-offish: this, though is to be expected when an oafish tourist like myself asks what brand of coffee is served. Coffee …
Train Stop Café, Cobargo
train stop café, cobargo Mokador coffee. This place will love forever in my memory because it is half shop, half train carriage. Inside a converted suburban train carriage (one of the old red rattlers) is seating for twenty or thirty people, mostly at tables and chairs, but for the lucky few, on one of the …
The River Rock Café, Bermagui
The river rock café, bermagui Danes coffee. Outdoor seating for 15 overlooking the river, and indoor seating for about twenty; in the corner is some music gear for their live music nights.

Lime Tree Café, Merimbula
Lime tree café, merimbula Organic free trade coffee. Open space, lots of aluminium chairs; seating for fifteen inside and another eight outside.

Coffee …
Fix Café, Sutherland
Fix café, sutherland Mokador coffee. 42 Eton Street, Sutherland. Has a range of takeaway and eat-in options. Customers sit mostly indoors on this cool, windy day.

Vann’s Café, Cremorne Point
Vann’s café, cremorne point Danes coffee. A little on the pricey side, as is typical for the northern suburbs, but the large coffee at $4 is truly a large coffee… More so than you would get in North Sydney. The café is open plan, has some street frontage, and an interior that’s as friendly as …

Bacio, QVB, Sydney
Bacio, qvb, sydney Bacio Coffee. The Queen Victoria Building is bound by George, Market, York and Druitt Streets. At QVB prices, you would expect table service, but this café is order-and-pay-at-counter. Somehow, we convince the waitress to take our order, but the regular customers seem to have accepted this rule. Good range of breakfast choices, …
