Some coffee shops are straight out of 'Home Beautiful", with their white interiors, with aluminium trim, and blonde-wood floors. Other coffee shops, are really greasy burger joints, making ends meet by repackaging their grey-water effluent. |
However, MY coffee shop has that gritty patina that screams inner-city-leftie-bleeding-heart-up-yerself-liberal-academic. The coffee is yummo. The croissants are to die for. The baguettes are freshly baked (every 20 minutes), and overflowing with filling. High Street Bakery, owned and run by ex-pat Vietnamese, is ALWAYS busy. A great place in Willoughby to sit and watch the world go by, lost in one's own thoughts. |

It's a winning mix - great atmosphere and fabulous food!
This does look like a terrific place to enjoy the world go by Julie. The holiday season will soon with be us and I am quite looking forward to watching the world go by for a time.
This storefront would definately draw me in.
The store-front is great, but so is the inside, albeit a smidge crowded. This strip of shops is small, but very good. All it really needs is an IGA to compete with the Harris farm on dry goods, not green grocer products.
I'd like to try your coffee shop.
"repackaged grey water" hee hee

Shabby Chic shopfront.
