Glider KS

Fab. This little café ticks all my boxes — super good coffee, great food, lovely people and gorgeous design. I had a Thai omelette with chili, which was really tasty and perfectly cooked. Will be back here at the earliest opportunity :)

Easily one of the best places for a coffee in the CBD — the guys at Glider know how to make their coffee.
Food range is diverse and interesting, have tried their Duck Breakfast Noodles — full of flavour, well cooked and decent sizing!
Open seven days a week, and friendly staff make for a great experience at Glider!

Friendly service, amazing setup, fantastic coffee. I’m going to have to add this one to my morning rotation ;)

All coffees are not created equal.
I know this because of Glider. The original is in Potts Point, this is the new venue, and it’s an absolute corker. They’ve set up shop in a teeny tiny Lilliputian cottage in Kensington Lane in the new Central Park precinct. It backs onto Spice Alley and has light-​filled interiors that are all white walls and light wood and it feel positively Scandinavian.
Then there’s the coffee. Good lord, man. It comes served in these custom cups, they’re kind of grainy and glazed and feel like they’ve been hewn out of very light sandstone by some unnamed master craftsman who will die a nobody but be recognised posthumously as one of the finest artisans of this or any age, Van Gogh style. The barista had the obligatory mustache but boy, did this dude know what service felt like. Polite, friendly, charming, without being overbearing.
Win stars out of five. Top class, thank you and goodnight.
