Bar Cortona

I sat here this morning while I was supposed to be waiting for my GP appointment. The cashier was speaking very loudly and came across as aggressive. I asked for water; the waiter brought me a glass of water, even though other tables were given bottled water. The coffee was good, but I won’t be coming back. The man was rude.

Very average first impression today. We walked in and walked up to the front and were told to sit at a table as there is table service. We waited 15 mins for table service and had to then ask for service. Only then were we brought menus and water. Coffee tasted a bit burnt but it was otherwise good. Got the steak sandwich, it was too sweet and drenched in sauce, they forgot the cheese, steak was overcooked. They put no salt on the chips. My partner’s smoked salmon omelette was good though, but they did not give butter for the bread. The staff seemed to be more interested in attending to their friends who were there. Overall an unmemorable experience and probably won’t come back.

☕️ Early morning coffee hit in Homebush! The coffee was absolutely perfect — extra hot and just how I love it, no sugar needed! 🔥👌 📊 Nutrition Facts (Regular Coffee, No Sugar): • ☕️ Calories: 2 kcal • 💧 Water content: 99% • 🧠 Caffeine: ~95 mg (per cup) • ❌ Sugar: 0 g • 🧂 Fat: 0 g • 🥩 Protein: 0.3 g • 🍞 Carbs: 0 g ✅ Boosts alertness ✅ Supports metabolism ✅ Zero sugar = guilt-free 📍Homebush mornings done right 🌤️ #coffeeaddict #blackcoffee #nosugar #homebushcafe #earlymorningvibes #coffeetime #caffeinekick #healthystart #metabolismboost #australiancoffee #sydneycafes #perfectbrew #extraheat #morningsorted #lowcalcoffee #guiltfreecoffee #coffeevibes #foodgowda

Ive been here a few times meals - today ordered the steak and my daughter ordered the pasta. We changed it to chicken pasta instead of bacon without a fuss. Steak was cooked how I wanted med well. Great portions. Would come back for both meals.

I absolutely love this cafe! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect place to unwind. The food is simply amazing, and I find myself coming back weekly just to try everything on the menu. The staff is incredibly friendly, always making me feel right at home. And Maroun, the owner, is such a kind and welcoming host. I highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking for a great dining experience!
