My friend and I decided to take advantage of our unexpected break between classes by treating ourselves to açai bowls on this hot ass day. Unlike the weather, the food was terrific and for $12.50, the portions were generous and they really packed it with fruit!
Most cafes in Newtown are packed on Friday and the weekends; though it was a bit of a wait. I'm glad I chilled at Milk Bar.
I definitely loved the dim & intimate setting, it's also spacious. Service was polite & prompt.
Their coffees and frosted chai frappes are made to perfection and definitely addictive.
We came here becauae Mary's had a long queue. I was surprised because the menu is so cheap!!! We got the Prawn Linguine ($20), Mushroom Risotto ($16), Vegie Quinoa Burger ($14), Cola BBQ Ribs ($25) and Share Plate for 2. Portion was massive. There were at least 6 huge prawns in the pasta. The ribs were juicy and tender. We didn't like the quinoa burger so much as it was plain and dry. The share plate was ordinary, wouldn't recommend ordering it.
Really liked it!. Had a really nice Mars bar hot chocolate and fig brandy cheese cake. The hot caramel drink was a bit hit and miss. The waitress was lovely
The reviews here are almost comical in how bad they are. One even says the manager punched him in the chest?! Did I go to the same place?? I think give it a go and maybe you'll like it like I did
The cake itself was alright. The pastry was really thick and rock hard, now i understand why it was so difficult to cut through without it all breaking apart. Luckily it’s pretty noisy in there so cutting through my cake with a spoon and making loud clinks and clanks on the plate wasn’t too much of a problem.
Some amazing food. Tasty. Coffee was average and we were there nice and early , before the crowds, which made it a more relaxed atmosphere...
Coffee and cake. AMAZING coffee... and carrot cake was delicious but $9 hurt a bit for one slice..
Good meals. Very busy but that's a good indication of how good it is. Meals are good, omelette for breakfast is great!
Easy meal. The meals i've had here are always easy and yum. not your gourmet 'must go' place, but reliable. love the soups here in winter with toasty bread. coffee isn't bad either.
I had the Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli. This is an old favorite of mine real comfort food. It could have done with a little bit more salt. The service was attentive and meal came out quick.
Nice and casual atmosphere… my iced-coffee was delicious. Yum.
One of the only places in Sydney that I know of that serves coffee and milkshakes up to 9pm at night which makes it a bit of a novelty. The soup of the day and toast is always nice and is great when you want the feel of home-cooking. Atmosphere is comfortable and warm, staff are friendly. Recommend visiting :)
I've had a great experience so far whenever I visit this place. The staff are super friendly and easy to chat with, always bubbly. They take their time to explain a menu item with you if you're curious about it, which I found very generous.
Both times I've came, I brought a book with me and there were a few tables around me with people reading their own books! I don't know if that's a common thing to see in Newtown but I loved seeing that.
I would definitely come back 😁
Right next door to the Dendy Cinema, the atmosphere was warm and the staff friendly. We were there early evening and had some delicious pasta with above average red wine. Worth a visit.
