Welcome to South Coffee & Food, where your coffee dreams come to life! Nestled in the heart of Barangaroo at the prestigious International Towers Sydney, this café isn’t just a place to grab a quick cup of joe; it’s a delightful experience that awakens the senses and brings together community and comfort in one highly inviting space.

At South Coffee & Food, every sip tells a story. Their coffee menu shines with artisanal blends crafted from Dukes Coffee Roasters, promising quality and a depth of flavor that true coffee aficionados cherish. Imagine a Cappuccino with perfectly silky frothed milk, harmoniously swirled over a rich espresso shot and dusted with a hint of chocolate. Or perhaps a Flat White, where velvety steamed milk enriches the boldness of the espresso, creating a classic taste that feels like a warm hug. If you prefer something refreshing, try their Iced Long Black, a refreshing take on your classic brew served chilled for the warm Sydney days.

But the experience at South Coffee & Food isn’t limited to just stellar punches of caffeine. Their lunchtime offerings boast a tantalizing selection that will make your taste buds dance. From a savory Grilled Chicken Sandwich, perfectly grilled and served with a choice of drink, to a fresh Chicken Avocado Wrap that screams for those with a palate for wholesome goodness, and a Smoked Salmon Bagel that's as nourishing as it is delicious—each option bursts with fresh, vibrant flavors.

The ambiance enhances the enjoyment further. Customers often commend the spacious seating arrangements, where natural light pours through, creating an inviting and relaxing environment. Gather with friends, catch up on work, or simply find a cozy corner to enjoy your coffee indulgence. The backdrop is enhanced by upbeat music that creates an engaging atmosphere without being overwhelming, making it the perfect spot for both casual meet-ups and professional gatherings.

What truly sets South Coffee & Food apart, however, is their dedication to exceptional customer service. Numerous reviews highlight the attentiveness of the staff who go above and beyond to ensure that your experience is nothing short of perfect.

Great coffee and nice seating! Food looked great as well even though we didn't try it but what stood out was the service. Through and through nice stuff and extremely attentive. Bringing tap water water without that we even asked for it and even refilled it immediately when they saw my first glass is empty. Wish I could give it 6 or 7 stars since our experience was flawless!

The food and coffee I had was really yummy. What really stood out to me was the understanding and kindness of the staff who went out of their way to ensure I got my order delivered straight to my hands and with a lovely smile too, because I have recently lost hearing in one ear and the other is like it’s underwater all the time, so I have to really focus to read lips or get real close and personal. This is a memory I will forever treasure. Thank you

South Coffee & Food has become our go-to spot for coffee and snacks—we’re there at least three times a week! With our office right above them, we’ve tried plenty of cafés in the area, but this one is by far our favorite. The coffee is always perfectly brewed, the snacks are fresh and delicious, and the service is top-notch. What really sets this place apart is the owner, who always makes sure customers are happy and well taken care of. You can tell they truly care about quality and customer experience. If you’re looking for the best café in the area, this is the one to visit!

Very good cappuccino with amazing music - This is the first time I'm writing a review because I liked the playlist so much I wish that the Sydney clubs would have the same taste.

Great customer service. The interior design is impressive. I like how they extend their coffee bar itself to provide a communal table at the other end of the bar. With a nice array of coffee beans and brewing devices for retail. For the size of their restaurant/café, and considering the amount of their staff, I wish they had an actual kitchen though that can serve freshly cooked meals/dishes. Not just limited to the premade sandwiches/salads in the display fridge. I wasn't a fan of their house blend, The filter coffee I had was nice. Great job Leo and the barista team.
