The Canopy Cafe Restaurant. Modern Australian.

I’ve been twice to The Canopy. Once for a meal and the second time for a coffee with a student. Love the tree theme. However, while I don’t really expect that much service in Australia anyway and am usually pleasantly surprised when I get it, Canopy was so popular and so full of people whenever I went there that the staff were simply constantly run off their feet and really didn’t have much time for niceties. Food took time to serve, coffee took ages, everyone looked stressed. I’m guessing the high lease price for this location means they can’t afford…

Kanzi Fashion Cafe and Dutch Coffee Haymarket Sydney

One of my favourite cafes in Sydney is Kanzi Fashion Cafe on Sussex Street in Haymarket. It is nice to have cold dutch coffee with sugary flavouring, though it isn’t that consistent day to day. Sometimes it’s great and sometimes it’s just okay.

Cafe Harris Sydney. Breakfast.

An Aussie breakfast at a cafe in Ultimo while working on one of my stories. Cafe Harris is a nice and quiet little getaway with reasonably priced food next to the Ian Thorpe Aquatic Centre. I’m usually served by friendly Koreans who know how to make a good coffee. There are a number of coffee shops in the area, but I prefer this one for the wood style chairs and the informal and relaxed atmosphere.

My Sweet Memory (MSM) Dessert Cafe and Stationery Sydney

This is a neat little cafe tucked away from the bustle of George Street, not far from Town Hall station. It is a nice Parisian style retreat with an area hiding out the back where you can sit on ornate painted metal seats. They’re sitting on a variety of stones though so everything rocks (pun intended!) While it seems a great place to meet people, I’m really not into cafes with loud music, so it’s not ideal for writing novels. Perfect for a quick catch up with friends, though.
