Unassuming, with inside and outside seating, but a rotating coffee programme that’ll knock your socks off. A beautiful range of black coffee if you’re open to trying a range of floral tasting notes. The guys at Kaska set a very high standard for an area flooded with coffee options. 

Local Sydney legend Gummy Johnston has been an icon in the Sydney tattoo scene for years. It’s where I go for all my inking. Thanks Tattoo is more than just a shop, it’s a community built around a whole lot of love for their craft in an environment where you’re welcomed like a close relative. Looking for a more permanent type of souvenir from your time in Sydney? Or maybe it’s time to mark off that bucket list? Look no further than Thanks Tattoo. Oh and thank me later! 

A relatively new kid on the block of sorts. Cross Section hit the ground running and for the last year or so have kept the formula simple. Sandwiches and snacks done well. And do them well is exactly what they do. Can you possibly go past the signature NYC chicken caesar wrap? 'Cause I couldn’t, and it’s not the first time I’ve tried to either! Do yourself a favour and just add the bacon and egg. No questions asked! 

No capital city has more of a right of passage than a beautiful unsuspecting store of unique clothing tucked down a hidden alley that you wouldn’t find unless someone told you about it. Well, I’m here to tell you about it! Supply Store stocks a range of threads that will have you looking fresher than the prince whom sits atop Bel Air. One-off pieces you won’t find anywhere else in Sydney. Guess that’s why they make it hard to find.
