If you've ever read any of my other reviews, you would know that you will win me over the second you smile at me, like we are years old friends, when you greet me the for the first time. Firstly it shows your hospitality is not reserved just for your regulars. Daniel and his amazing team is the benchmark for all cafes, especially those I've rated 3 or less, just start with that, some authenticity and genuine welcoming of ANY customers, old or new. ...and then there's the food. OMG, you try so hard to have a go at other items, but the last dish was so delicious you can't help ordering the same, and tell yourself 'next time'. Great service and always a pleasure being here, its now our choice place to meet, work, business catch ups. Keep up the great work.

Stepping into Blue Sparrow Cafe feels like a little pocket of calm inside Southland. If you need a break from the bustle, this is your spot. Our picks: Steak Baguette Turkish Eggs Strawberry Biscoff Pancake Strawberry Smoothie Mango Iced Matcha Flat White (extra shot for good measure) From indulgent sweets to comforting savoury plates, everything was good. Plus, the friendliest team Note: They get super busy during the weekends so we had a bit of a wait during our visit before our dishes came out.

Food is great and coffee is even better. Until end of November there’s a 50% discount if you sign up for their loyalty membership. Or if you’re early enough, you can get EatClub discounts via the app. Recommend trying hot honey chicken waffle, pulled beef croissant or smoked salmon rostie if you want something new. If not their regular big breakfast is good too. Only reason I gave 4 star service was because of the lack of steak knives to cut the food. Atmosphere is great too if you have a group of friends. There’s a nice round table to cater for large groups
