BEST CAFFEINE KICK: Single Origin Coffee

You can’t seriously talk about Sydney’s coffee offerings without mentioning Single Origin. Since 2003, the crew in Surry Hills has been delighting us with their unique blend – but it’s not just the heady aroma of fresh grinds that have us salivating. The seasonal, organic, homemade culinary delights (not to mention the pale ale) will also get your palate dancing. (Kate Britton)
