Brewristas Cafe

Very pleasant service, flavourful food, albeit rather small portions. Enjoyed the jerk chicken sambo. Plenty of outdoor seating; great for locals with doggos. Had a tepid, watery long black. Unsure if the barista was in a rush, or this is the preferred style (in which case, others clearly like it). There is room for improvement, in my opinion.

Revising my five star review based on a second visit. Our order for three people included two of the same dish but only one came. One of us was left without food the entire time the others of us finished our meal. We were told we wouldn't be charged for one round of coffees - the fairer course would have been not to charge for the meal that didn't arrive. I left and saw I was charged for the coffees. The meal was surprisingly and sadly bland. Disappointing experience and a shame. Response equally disappointing. Just add salt and pepper because the food is otherwise bland is a great tip. 8 minute delay is just dishonest - it took about 15 after it was raised, which in turn was 10 minutes after it was supposed to arrive, by which point each other person had finished their meal. Pro tip - leave the salt for your food not your review replies

Best all around cafe in Darlinghurst! Wonderful coffee and wonderful people, especially Matt, the owner. Definitely a hub of Darlinghurst locals who come every day to sit or grab their takeaway for work. Lots of seats inside and out— Tasty, simple menu (mostly healthy too) with more extravagant options for brunch on the weekend if you want something special. Also, lots of dogs which is always a plus! If you need a haven in the area this is your spot.
