Really rude service and a bit of a rip off. Would not recommend.

Salads! The lima bean salad is the bomb. Just love it. Always friendly. The burgers are great also. Easy to understand why this place is constantly packed.

Food is fantastic, love coming here for a reliably healthy and delicious meal for lunch. Usually get something off the specials board, like fig and gorgonzola salad or lamb kofta wrap. Always really generous with fresh home made salad with a beautiful dressing. Great coffee. Really trendy and modern atmosphere, but they need more waiters! Only 2 waitresses on the floor during peak lunchtime no wonder they seem stressed!

Go to Cook and Archies regularly as I work in the area. Friendly service, consistently good food and when George was there, fantastic coffee. New Barista leaves something to be desired, coffee still OK though, but amazing what difference a good or not so good barista makes. Still recommended though, but just bring back George.

The best place in Sydney for a quality, Melbourne style coffee and a lazy afternoon. The ambience is relaxed and easy, the food top quality and the service impeccable. Do try the delicious Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Salmon, or the tender Lamb Souvlaki Wrap. All meals are heartily served, and always with a smile. Highly Recommended.

My fave cafe in the area, coffee is the best and George is such a hospitable character. They have the best and freshest omelettes in town. Fantastic place, why are they not closer to my home.

This one is my virtual lounge room and kitchen in Sydney! This is something of an institution here in the Surry Hills/Central area. George and Steve's gregarious, genuinely friendly style is a refreshing change from generic cafes. Their delicious array of meals, the brilliant barrista of George, the ample space to accommodate you or 12 friends at a table, the "commendable" selection of newspapers and magazines, makes this a place to visit for breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea... can you tell I'm addicted? Make C&A your staple daytime dining experience, and only hope they one day open for dinner.

Delicious. Absolutely delicious. In fact, it's 7am and I can't wait to get on down and read the Financial Review over an expertly and lovingly made latte.

Reccomendations: "Homestyle" Beef & Burgundy and, "Chicken & Leek" pies, the tasty salads with yummy rocket, the felafel wraps, the lamb souvlaki wraps, the pastas, the daily specials... this is a place you can come alone for a great meal and read the news, or entertain a new or old loved one, or entertain and discuss business with friends or clients. I've done all of them.

Can you tell I'm addicted? I rarely rave for nothing! A Cafe at its best; an example for how other Sydney ones to do it!
