Double Roasters in Marrickville

Double Roasters in Marrickville specializes in blending and roasting coffee in small batches. However, on top of their coffee they also serve food, and having passed by a few times it always looks full. The cafe is located in an old warehouse around the corner from Bourke Street Cafe and seems to be popular with the  hipsters.

Seating is available by the roadside in front of the cafe. The tables are adorned with fresh flowers, and rainbow coloured benches brighten up the shop frontage. Once seated, service was fast and very friendly! We were checked on by various waiters and we were very well attended to. Exceptional!

The roast pork sandwich is a popular item and normally comes with an apple relish. They had run out that day though, and instead the sandwich came with apple slices. The sandwich was delicious! The pork was juicy, well salted and cut to the right thickness. The sandwich cost $9.50 and although seemed a little small at first, turned out to be just the right size.

thehomefoodcook - long black with orange

The iced long black came in a tall glass stuffed with orange slices. Visually it's a very attractive drink. There was also a ginger flavour running through the beverage which I found fine but others may not like it as much.

I left the cafe satisfied and yet wanting to try more the next time round. I'll be back!
