Cafe Bouquiniste - 121 Merthyr Rd, New Farm

Coffee - 3/5
Service - 2/5
Atmosphere - 4/5
Location - 4/5

Best - organic products and grungy cool vibe
Worst - the homeless guy going through the bin out the front (i wanted to give him something to eat but get bitten every time i try to help like that - i got abused by a homeless lady on Oxford street in Sydney in the middle of winter for buying her a blanket)

TOTAL RATING 13/20

Located on a quiet part of Merthyr Rd the parking was easy, right out the front and FREE! Surprise surprise considering Mr Newman is starting to charge us for parking almost everywhere. I have driven passed many times and noticed the mix-matching chairs to the side of this little shopfront that somehow worked and looked very appealing to me. I have finally stopped in and am very much enjoying my time here. Everything in this mix-matched little coffee shop is pre-loved and recycled, there is an uber cool feel to being here. So far i have seen a woman with a louis vuitton bag come in, a homeless guy, the grungy cool and the rich, hippy mum type stroll through. Ahhhh the reason why i love New Farm so much, every walk of life under the sun in one area and everyone accepting of whoever you choose to be. I will be coming back to this place where i can sit in the corner on the comfy lounges and not feel rushed.




WHO I WOULD MEET FOR A COFFEE HERE? My uber cool friend that isnt snotty and can appreciate the chilled setting and love that everything looks like its from a second hand store and appreciate it
