Urban Sips

I look forward to the days I forget to pack lunch for work, cause it means I can come across the road to this beautiful cafe. Their menu has some delicious lamb dishes that remind me of home, and the staff are always friendly despite my poor efforts with small talk. It's hard to stand out in a crowd of Annandale cafes, but still my first choice when deciding on lunch! 😋

One of my favourite coffee joints in the inner west! I've never had a bad coffee here! Lots of places to site, great food menu and the staff are nice and friendly.

A very warm welcome in a lovely setting! Thank you to Maëlle who served us with good humor and professionalism! I'll be back to try the dishes on offer, which look delicious! I highly recommend it!

I went in for a mocha, really kind and welcoming staff. Shop is also really clean and tidy! One of the best coffees I’ve had in the inner west so shoutout to the barista. Pretty hard as there’s alot of competition in this area but I’ll become a definite regular from now on 🥰❤️

Went and ordered a take away iced strawberry matcha latte with soymilk and a hot mocha. When we went to pick our order up, I noticed that my “Iced strawberry matcha latte” was completely pink with no hint of green hue from matcha. Due to this, I questioned the barista that made the drink. He insisted that it was strawberry matcha latte and that it is usually pink like this and he was not sure why it is not green. He did offered to make another drink for me during then and told me to not panic (I wasn’t and I even told him no rush). I declined the offer of a new drink and decided to trust that it is the iced strawberry matcha latte that he claims it is. As we were about to leave, my partner took a sip of his supposed hot mocha and we realised that instead of hot mocha, he got a hot matcha. I was going to ignore my pink drink and go about my day but seeing that we were charged $15 for both drinks and both orders were wrong, we asked if he could make us our actual orders and he said ok, and once again asking me to not panic when I am clearly not panicking, just frustrated that he was not listening. When our drinks came again, I realised that my supposed iced strawberry matcha latte is just a plain iced matcha latte. I went and told him that and he grabbed the ?strawberry syrup bottle and just squirted directly into my drink that had been served to me, saying that he can give me more if i want more strawberry flavour. I am not making this complain to try to ruin the reputation of the cafe or anyones as I have had very good coffee and food here but I am just frustrated at how the barista wasn’t checking the orders properly before making it, and not listening to my feedback or question, and even attempted to gaslight me into thinking that my fully pale pink drink is a matcha strawberry latte when it was just strawberry milkshake, and telling me to not panic when he was the one panicking, and then proceeds to remake a wrong order, and his poor attempt to correct his own mistakes.
