"Friendly service and good atmosphere but the food is mediocre"
"I’ve been a regular here for the last 6 months or so, and i couldn’t recommend this place more"
"Slow service! Bad service! Waited 30 mins, still no breakfast"
"Still waiting for a bad experience here"
"Haven’t been to this sweet Hunter S Thompson tribute joint for a minute and I’m so glad I moseyed on back! Super friendly and hospitable new staff, a standout star is the lovely Skylar… the spicy chickpea guac is a perfect side to accompany a couple of ice cold pints of Young Henry’s"
Friendly service and good atmosphere but the food is mediocre. My friend and I split the fire burger and the black bean nachos - the burger was tasty but not at all spicy and the nachos were served cold with cheese that had been melted and congealed. We sent back the nachos - they apologised and remade them. They were more like "chili" nachos than black bean, and were missing the promised jalepeños as described on the menu (my favourite part of nachos!) Ordered a side of guac - it was bland and a weird shade of green - looked like pre-packaged not fresh. Love the drinks here but wouldn't order food again.

I’ve been a regular here for the last 6 months or so, and i couldn’t recommend this place more. I work nearby so I’m in here almost 5 days a week. Morning and nights have completely different vibes, from Eddie’s coffee to sterling’s cocktails, beverages are spot on, and Daz’s food is delicious too. The staff are incredibly sweet, chill and friendly. It’s honestly the best place to hangout at with a bunch of friends or even by yourself, because the people working there are super cool. Love Samuel’s banter too btw. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. 11/10
Slow service! Bad service! Waited 30 mins, still no breakfast. Then they told me they ran out of what I ordered but my husband’s breakfast was almost ready-so that’s ok. Then we got up to leave as it was taking too long and the waitress said, ‘that’s ok..no stress’. Maybe if they ‘stressed’ more they’d get around to serving food. Seems at this place they’re all too cool for school and too cool to work!
Still waiting for a bad experience here. Staff is consistently warm, talkative and gracious. The food is always on the money and the vibe is always good. The bar team are great at cocktails and were happy to make ones that aren’t on their menu. A shout out to Callum for always looking after us!

Haven’t been to this sweet Hunter S Thompson tribute joint for a minute and I’m so glad I moseyed on back! Super friendly and hospitable new staff, a standout star is the lovely Skylar… the spicy chickpea guac is a perfect side to accompany a couple of ice cold pints of Young Henry’s. Vibe as good as ever, the music and ambience is just too cool for Randwick.Six stars.
Second time here. Really cool, laid back feel. Pancakes were great as was the coffee and the staff were very pleasant. First time I came here was for a beer after a movie at the Ritz. That too was damn good! Will recommend

Went in the bar ordered two beers. The Batman Chris, I guess and also his Companion really know what they are doing. They are excellent barkeeper with a good variety of Drinks they can handle. Usually one of both sucks. The bar or the bartender. At this place you wont be dissapointed. Great drinks great bar. Good quality of spirits used. cu the German One :-))
- verdict- go here for fire burger - a must try!!! For a bar joint you expect the food to be just OK but this place does some great food. The best of which is their fire burger. This delicious creation with blue cheese, jalapeños and their own made chili sauce is to die for. Have been going there for ages and still can’t have enough of this burger.
Friendly staff with a nice fitout. The toppings were nice and offered alot more ingredients compared to competitors in the area. Only down fall was the bread/toast was the smallest serving I have ever seen. To be completely honest, it was kind of a good thing as I am concious of my carb and calorie intake at the moment. I was just expecting more.
We came here on our first date last Friday, it was truly the best time ever. The cocktails were delicious, especially Nav’s espresso martini’s. Him and the rest of the staff are the best people you could working behind that bar!! Would definitely recommend.

I work in a pub and I love pubs where the staff is just relaxed and bring a good vibe to the whole venue. Yesterday we had a Estrella Damm and a gin and cola and after some good conversation we head off. Unfortunately, I forgot my favourite jacket but today the girl working in there had kept it. Thank you so much for your kindness
This place was basically my home base for a coffee in the morning and some drinks at night when I was checking out Sydney for a few days. Great drinks, great music, and Nav and all the other guys behind the counter are the friendliest you could ever ask for. Sick Hunter theme in the bar too. Unreal spot all in all.
Thoroughly enjoyed my Fish, Chips & Salad lunch & my son enjoyed his Burger & Chips. Quick service, delicious & great tasting food. Coffee was rich, strong & flavoursome. Good place to dine in, most specially, before or after the movies, which is just across The Ritz Theatre or just a place to chill-out
We loved it and sat at the bar for the evening, chatting with the staff as they worked. Great music and watching the various cocktails being prepared was highly entertaining. Would definitely go back again if we're in the neighbourhood. Look out for it opposite the Cinema in an area known as The Spot.
Coffee was good enough. 1 more star cause staff was nice. Price is ridiculously expensive for 1 avocado toast + 1 almond latte = 20.50$ Not even in Perisher / Thredbo they are so badly expensive. Definitely not recommend 16$ dollar for a single toast! Is this Switzerland ? No thanks.
I go here periodically, and find it to be a great breakfast/brunch spot. Nice fit out, normally good music in background, but most of all I think they have one of the best bacon and egg roll in Sydney - with its smokey bacon and homemade chilli sauce. It's that good.
Good spot for coffee, drinks and dinner. Trivia Wednesday is fun, and the bar staff are always friendly, helpful. Could improve with a better booking system for tables. That aside, I love the atmosphere and the quirky decor complimented by creative cocktails.
Super lovely place! A cafe that also turns into a bar at night - a perfect model seems to me. Absolutely delicious food that is made with love and the prices are good. You will be welcomed by a super friendly staff and a unique atmosphere of a bar.
Food is fresh, interesting and tasty! They do a good brunch and lunch. At night they turn into a lively bar, with a good selection of beers and wines. They also have a good bathroom, which I think everybody appreciates. AmIright?
Unexpectedly great. An upmarket breakfast experience a lot of other cafes could learn from (looking at you, Canberra). The second set of espressos were a little bit over-extracted, but frankly - how many people drink espresso?
Intimate local bar with everything you need for a good time, outdoor seating, snacks and cold brewskis and cocktails. Must visit.

Cute little bar in Randwick opposite the Randwick Ritz. The San Juan slipper or a regular margarita are great. Great for a catch up drink. They also serve food.

This is a really cool place with a nice vibe and atmosphere. It’s always busy from early morning to late at night. The food is ok; just a lot of the usual fried stuff you get at a bar. Very popular with the locals.
Friendly staff and amazing drinks!! The cocktails are the best out there. Quick service and overall a nice vibe - we felt like we were back in Amsterdam. We will be back!

Good atmosphere but very poor service when it got busy. The one kitchen boy had no chance on a Saturday night and the food quality was worse than average

Great atmosphere and happy hour! The staff here are attentive and keep the drinks flowing. The joint is a bit small and gets quite loud and raucous be overall a great time

Not a bad place to go for a weekend feed ... Music playlist is good but it would really do justice to the place if they had local acoustic acts playing.
I really like this place. Great vibe, staff, food and amazing coffee! Super recommended

Ordered a cheese toastie and it was made with thick, gluggy, orange Macca's-style cheese. It was inedible.
