Overpriced and ordinary! Regular coffee for $ 4.20. Iced chai latte for $ 6.50, which did not taste very good(I could have made it at home better). This place is overpriced, has ordinary drinks and the premises are extremely small. It only has around 2 tables inside and around 4 tiny tables set up in the narrow alleyway outside.

If you have stumbled across the bar Palmer & Co and I know many Sydney-siders have. You will be able to easily find this gem down Abercrombie Lane. You can’t miss it as the name and signage outside the café also happens to be the address — 1 Abercrombie Lane. I was a big fan of the BIG sandwiches and BIG salads the previous café owners had at the same location. I can now confess I’m a BIGGER fan of this café. The servings are just as big but the menu has been replaced by a healthier, yummier range of breakfast and lunchtime foods. The barista told me they have been opened for about five months. All I can say is I have been missing out for the past five months! I feel like I have discovered a gem and can’t wait to share it with everyone. My friend tried the orange glazed carrot & miso chicken salad which she told me was just as delicious as it looked. I went for the beetroot and haloumi salad which was filled with healthy, fresh and yummy ingredients. Did I mention the servings are BIG?! We were so full of delicious good food we had to do a few laps of the block before filing back into the office. The only down side of our visit and it wasn’t the café owners or staff’s fault, was construction work going on in the building. We could feel the vibrations of the jack hammering through the floor. If you visit whilst the construction is still going on please don’t be discouraged from eating-in as the construction noise wasn’t loud enough to interrupt our conversation or cause any discomfort. All baked goods are freshly baked on premises. There is a selection of muffins, brioches, bagels and sourdough & rye breads for sale. They can be ordered for eat-in or take-away. If you’re eating-in there are seats inside and limited seating in the lane way. I recommend not bringing a big crowd with you as there isn’t the room. I’m already planning my next visit to try one of the Abercrombie sandwiches. I’ll be taking friends and a big appetite with me. Can’t wait.
