Best of Sydney 2015: Best New Cafe

Getting us out of bed in the morning and redefining our coffee breaks.

Concrete Playground
Published on December 23, 2015

Sydney's cafes continue to redefine our coffee breaks, from crab cake sandwiches to house-brewed coffee lemonade. At Concrete Playground we encourage exploration and showcase innovation in our city — and our breakfast — every day, so we are very pleased to announce our picks for Best New Cafe in Concrete Playground's Best of Sydney 2015 Awards. These six outstanding cafes have been handpicked by CP for their innovation, originality, cracking menus and, of course, their damn good coffee — but it was non-profit Gratia that blew us away this year. Along with some killer cafe fare, all the profits from your bill go straight to a charity of your choosing. Nice work, guys — we love what you do.
