Short Black
Living a bean's throw from Campos Coffee is a mixed blessing.
We are spoiled for coffee both by the bean (microroasted and blended on-site) and by the cup (made with attention by professional barristas) but whenever we travel it's very difficult to find coffee that even comes close to the benchmark.
If you haven't been, you are missing out on one of Sydney's best but not so well kept secrets. We recommend dropping in for a short black and also picking up a bag of the Project "A" special blend for your plunger or Campos Superior for your stovetop percolator.

have you tried "Allpress" in 58 Epsom Rd, Roseberry? i think they are even better than "Campos" and have great bread too.

We have and Allpress is great but we're definately still on the Campos side of the fence.
A new development in coffee here though is that a former Campos roaster and one of Sydney's best barristas have started a new company called "Golden Cobra" which is slowly stocking some great cafes....we get our at Saapho Books in Glebe....
