Found this place through a friend. Yes some items are expensive like the toasted ham and cheese sandwich. But when you take into account gruyere cheese is around $56 a kilo you can understand why. And with me there are three things that I judge and provide reviews on 1 - consistency, 2- friendliness 3 - flavour. Always consistent with their coffee and tempered just the way I like it. Always friendly and know you by name. Lastly flavour, that toasted ham and cheese is to die for. Never have I experience oily. Only fresh and tasty. And let’s be real guys - after the pandemic so many good retail went bust not only because of the pandemic, but also the quality of their food went downhill and the portions became less, yet they charged more. This cafe deserves some recognition. Well done guys, keep up the great work. The bad reviews would have been posted from people who pay $2.50 for toasted sandwich.

Love this cafe, it has been my local every time I work in the city for years now. Great food, amazing customer service and the coffee is just perfect.

Great little stopping place along Park street that offers a very good, quick coffee and a number of light lunch snacks etc. Staff are friendly and care about quality. It can get crowded around lunch hour, so best to visit in between peak times. I like the cozy feel during the colder months of the year. This place also does a lot of take-away for nearby offices.

Love the sausage rolls here. They are bloody enormous! You can even get a side of salad because balance is key. Staff are friendly and they also make great coffee.

Paid $16 for a ham and cheese toastie and a small coffee . I wish they put the prices on display .. I wouldn’t have ordered the toastie ( which was so greasy it almost made me gag ) .
3 stars for the great coffee and smile

In a city of very high standards of coffee this place stands out! Great coffee, and great food. Salt of the earth staff that balance speedy service and smiles.
I recommend the turkey rye roll (toasted) or avo toast (chilli, feta, tomato and vegemite) for breakfast. If it’s lunch, and the tuna salad is Aaamazing!
No place is perfect, but Speed Bar is the most consistently great coffee, and food I’ve found this side of the North Pole…
Once they know you, they know your coffee and it only gets better!
This is not a paid promotion, but I will accept a free coffee as I have no Instagram followers to influence them with!
Do yourself a flavour.

Friendly staff, terrific coffee and speedy service. I’ve tried virtually every cafe in the city as someone who lives in the neighbourhood, and this place is 10/10 my absolute favourite.

Awesome coffee blend, quick service and friendly staff. My go to café in Midtown Sydney, a must if you need that quick coffee in a hurry along Pitt or Castlereagh Streets

banana bread is amazing. Not pricy and the portion is good. Quick and fast service. No reason to not give a five star. Location is convenient as well

Best coffee in Sydney, surrounded by coffee shops that cannot "coffee" such a sweet little shop, good food, friendly staff that remember you and your prefered brew.

Great place for coffee and snack. Great coffee, very quick which is great if you’re in a rush, and staff extremely friendly and remember your order after a couple of times, best cafe I’ve been to in Sydney.

Best Coffee in CBD. They make absolutely perfect coffee every time, day after day, any time of the day.

Meh. My first time as a patron. Ricotta and choc muffin couldn't be any more dry. Latte had optimal temp but rather flat flavour. Could do much better. Affordable.

Speedy caff. These guys have been going strong for over ten years now. The coffee, a little on the warm side, is reliably good and made with precision and haste. On the food side of things you can find lasagne, soup, frittata and a selection of sweet pastries
