Federal Coffee Palace - Knox

Federal coffee is on the elizabeth st. side on the historic GPO building. the portico is quite long. the former GPO building is now occupied by a series of retailers and gastronomic companies, including federal coffee. some historical objects are still intact; a series of...placards explain the history of the building. federal coffee serves good coffee; if they have half an hour, they take a seat a watch the world passes.

After a long day of walking and shopping, it's a great feeling to relax and savor a cup of coffee. The seating is conveniently situated within the GPO building, giving it a truly unique atmosphere.

Nice place to eat breakfast and enjoy delicious coffees al fresco. What a ingenious way to re-purpose an old building. You sit far enough away from people on the street, cars, exhaust. Eat here, you won't regret it.

Nice place to have a cup of coffee and breakfast. The location is special outdoor, heated under the arch of classic building. Food is good and service is prompt.

The coffee was rich and full of flavour and my toast came in a generous sized serve. Choosing to dine here was a great choice, although a little drafty.
