Astor Espresso - GLEBE

Nice cafe situated near Glebe library on Glebe Point Road. I had a soy cappuccino and Poached eggs with wilted spinach and relish. The coffee, made from single origin, was really well made & the eggs poached to perfection. The staff were also really friendly too. Will definitely go back to try again!!

Chilly Monday, late autumn, grumbling stomach. The appetite takes us to Astro. Thought this cafe must have something to it, seeing all the locals coming in and out for the same reason as I am about to go in there for... A good morning feed. When you walk in, there is a warm and inviting vibe to the simple decorated decor that works just nicely. The service was prompt, wait staff took our drinks order. Coffee and tea came out at a decent time. Shortly after that, our food order was taken. We ordered green scrambled eggs and my breakfast buddy ordered the Astro benedict, and it was just perfect. The portion size was just so giving and generous, could have fed to humans nicely. Their eggs were fluffy and moist, flavour of the eggs were just so complimentary and not over bearing. Bacon cooked to perfection and not too dry. Made in a way that made me go... Oooh! The grilled tomatoes that I generally avoid was firm and sweet, not soggy when you cut into the tomato. For this I give this breakfast joint a seal of approval. If you are in the area, this cafe is a must try for various reason, not just the portion size alone. I have visited and sampled many cafes, and whilst I thought some were nice, it was one of those places I would most likely visit once, to simply say that I have been there. As for this place, it is understated, warm and inviting, not too noisy to hold a conversation (absolutely a +++ for me), value for money and simply yummy and honest breakfast with being overly complicated. You shall see me again. I had a nice experience this morning.

Super friendly people and service is always top notch! Coffee is excellent and the food is of a very high quality - particularly the haloumi stack. The smashed Avo dish could use a revamp - some feta or something tangy to offset the avocado. The beetroot doesn't balance well. All in all a fantastic place!
