An increasingly popular brunch spot in Sydney is Paramount Coffee Project, and as you can imagine, people speak very highly of the coffee here. I decided to try out the quirky restaurant while meeting my dear friend. Paramount Coffee Project actually has a really special place in my heart, because it was here that my friend told me about him planning to propose to his girlfriend - my best friend. It was such a memorable morning, and even though the conversation would have happened anywhere, this cafe now brings a really wonderful experience to mind.

Went on a Sunday at around 11am and waited half an hour for a table, it was really busy. The coffee here is perfect and the food is also delicious.
đCRUMBED EGGS ON TOAST ($17.5) A very popular dish here and I can understand why. It was full of so much flavour.
đłSOFT BAKED EGGS w/ PORK SAUSAGE ($21.5) This was a very tasty and hearty meal!
Overall experience was exceptional. Location and venue was amazing and very spacious. The baked eggs with pork sausage was delicious and the coconut porridge was amazing! Will definitely come back! :)
The crumbed eggs on toast had immediately leapt forth from the menu to catch my eye but the inclusion of ham hock had me ummâing and errâing. And while there was no vego option (or alternative dishes that I really, really wanted), I figured I could cast the meat aside if I really didnât like it, which is usually the case with thick meat cuts. But as it turns out, the smoky saltiness of the ham hock combined with the earthiness of the kale was a delicious, moreish flavour combination that worked really well with the eggs.
Love the coffee.Love the food.Love the ambience.
The staff were friendly and provided good service. Waiting time was fast, and the food is consistently good everytime we visit!
I was deciding whether to try their EOD but I really donât do well with black coffee so.... but this white coffee is still insanely good!! and I got the Bibi which might look plain here but once you add the sauce and mix it altogether, itâs really tasty. Healthy too đ
the crumbled eggs on toast is so good! everything is tasted.
but the vegan shake milk is too sweetđ sweet lover definitely will like it which taste like coco
Surry Hills is always a good place to find great breakfast or brunch. The plating is always so beautiful and colorful, the coffee is nice, and also the service
Best breakfast ever. The fermented tomatoes with vegemite cashew cream was to die for. The cool interiors and friendly service made this a great brekkie experience. Highly recommended.

Aesthetically pleasing cafe sitting in an artistic district with creative, eclectic brunch items that are surprisingly good. As soon as you walk in, the warm friendly staff and chill Sunday vibes will greet and welcome you into the spacious room filled with faded botanical lush. Menu included jambalaya, gumbo, miso ramen, and eggs on toast. While I really wanted to try the jambalaya, it was not available for vegetarians / pescatarians. I had the coconut chowder instead and it was absolutely amazing, even though the portion was quite small. I would never have thought that âcoconutâ and âchowderâ would go together, but the dish was at once savoury with a hint of freshness and sweetness from the coconut. Tasted a little like Thai curry, but I havenât really had anything like it. Comes with fried potatoes and prawns. Unfortunately there were only 2-3 pieces on prawns in it, which was not enough for me to feel the gratifying satisfaction that I was looking for in Sunday brunch, which admittedly could be quite an overindulgence. The pastry items honestly looked quite average, and I didnât go with them even though I could probably have used just a little more food.
Visited the cafĂ© for the first time. Thereâs seating inside and out. Paid street parking available directly outside the cafĂ©. Inside is nicely decorated and has a good atmosphere. Ordered a BK roll with American cheese and avocado toast with fried egg. Food was good. Total came to $55 for the four items.
Excellent coffee âïž, excellent service and great food đ„ in a cleverly designed space of the foyer at the Art Deco chic Paramount House Hotel. A slow coffee bar and a working coffee bar adds depth and interest to the space. Melbourne vibes definitely felt here đ
Friendly staff and good menu for brunch - had the bacon and egg roll and avocado on toast. Good coffee too. Only downsides to call out are that itâs a) a little expensive and b) it does get busy, so best to get there early.
Went to PCP for brunch during June long weekend - the place is busy as not many cafes open on public holiday. The menu is fusion of Asian/American style cafe styled food, deco is industrial chic style with high ceiling. We ordered the Fried Chicken Waffles and BKE Roll plus couple of coffees. Food was delicious and service was adequate. Beware of their 20% surcharge on public holiday.
Ordered 3 items, All three were delicious. Mushroom toastie - great flavour , perfect with coffee.
Crumbed Eggs on Toast- seems like a popular item. Pulled pork was juicy. Filling altogether.
Banana and Walnut Bread - great side and perfectly sweet and crunchy coz of the walnuts. Highly recommend.
Coffee was not too bad either. Expected better since itâs a âcoffee projectâ

According to an article published by the Financial Times in February this year, the Paramount Coffee Project in Sydney is one of the best independent coffee shops in the world. That is a good reason to pay them a visit.
The café is in a heritage-listed building formerly home to Paramount Pictures in the inner-city district of Surry Hills. On my way from the CBD to Surry Hills I literally passed hundreds of cafés, as stated in the FT article. Of course, I had very high expectations, as I do not visit one of the best cafés in the world. So, how good was my experience?
I truly enjoyed the building itself, the architecture, and the interior design. I especially liked the exposed concrete in combination with the untreated bricks in the walls, the white tiles and the simple metal chairs and wooden tables inside and the concrete table on the outside. Sleek, simple, and giving space to the coffee and food offering. Yet, the coolest object was the vending machine in the lobby, called the lobby boy.
I ordered their single origin espresso as a double from Honduras and a batch brew from Colombia. I started with the tasty looking espresso: it was well balanced with flavors of blood oranges, dark stone fruits and spices in the finish. The body was bold, the texture dense and the finish long-lasting sweet like nectarines. The filter coffee from Colombia came with a crisp, citric acidity, the cup was clean and sweet, with citrus flavors of orange and grapefruits and a lingering aftertaste. The cup and the range server were very cute. I liked the 4x4 truck with the gigantic banana in the back. It would have been great to taste a coffee with a banana flavour. That would have been a great match to elevate the multi-sensory experience. The vessel worked perfectly with the concrete table. I could not resist and ordered scrambled eggs on sourdough bread. That is a very Aussie thing, and filter coffee works very well with warm scrambled eggs and crispy bread.
Thank you for the nice tip FT! It was a great experience. When you go an visit this place, also look out for the great wall paintings (e.g. âReturn to Senderâ and enjoy the Vanessa Megan Blood Orange Foaming Soap when you wash your hands in the toilet. It is all about the details, and it is definitely not only about coffee. And maybe you find my signed book, that I have been hiding in the cafĂ©. Live is too short to not have some fun.
One of the most popular cafe in Sydney!
There were a lot of people although I visited here on a weekday.
Ordered flatwhite, almond croissant, BKE roll, all of them were amazing!
