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!

Go there once or twice a day, by far the best coffee in the area, George has enviable memory for the names of his guests, his partner is a bit grumpy at times but the brekky unbeatable. Should not praise this place too much since it might attract more customers.

Without a doubt, the best coffee in the area.
The food is absolutely delicious and the servings are huge. There are a lot of cafe type creations, such as chick pea burgers (which are delicious) but also your bog standards such as steak sandwiches, pastas and salads.
The service is a bit slow and chaotic, and it's a bit chi chi at times, but it's worth putting up with for the food and coffee.

Discovered this place at the recommendation of friends from work. We had a great lunch, the servings were huge and the coffee was delicious (I would agree that it is the best I have tasted in this area). There is not that many great cafes / restaurants this end of Surry Hills who can fit tables of 8-12 easily.

Used to be able to be a big fan: there every Sat breakkie, they would see us walk past to get the paper and have coffees (up to Melbourne's standards) ready by the time we came in, v friendly, non-pretentious staff, BIG breakfasts w equally good vegetarian option, eggs poached to perfection and all only 40m from home. Unfortunately they're no longer open on weekends :o(

The food is great but the coffee is usually bitter which is a shame.

I went to C&A's because of the commendations on this site. I had the breakfast and it was good value but the scrambled eggs were a bit overcooked and tasteless and the bread overtoasted. That all being said, I enjoyed the atmosphere there and it was fairly good value.
