One of the best cafe's in the area. Actually not one of the best they are the best.... Staff always polite and go out of their way to make sure you happy with your order. Never having to wait more than five minutes for your order. I went once and still go every day that was over ten years ago. I highly recommend Expresso Cafe.

Great Coffee and fantastic food. Everything is so fresh and not greasy. The new owners have made the cafe a pleasure to go now , and to make it better they have kept the same staff on who are really lovely and know what they are doing.

I have given it a 5 star for atmosphere, but that is due to the friendly banter that goes on and on as new customers walking in the door. Everyone is greeted with a friendly smile and so many regulars. I have to say, my favourite meal, my chicken schnitzel sandwich may have been replaced now, as they made me a fantastic hamburger, literally the best one I have had in years. And if you like a simple egg and lettuce sandwich you will not find a better one anywhere.

take it from the Prince ladies and gentlemen, this is the only place to be spotted having a coffee in Terrey Hills, if you're caught drinking anywhere else you're probably a cretin who lacks culture and taste or worse, a cyclist. the coffee itself is very velvety, hot but never too hot and Surge, Jo and Tracy are very friendly, approachable and wonderful conversationlist. it's almost like walking into an episode of happy days when walking in the espresso sandwich.

Just for a change, I ordered a large hot chocolate instead of coffee for lunch, and it was so good. And the burger was just right. You can have whatever you want on your burger, but I am happy with just a plain one. So good. This cafe is always packed with tradies and drivers getting good food and drinks, this says a lot, and the friendly banter is also normal, such a treat.
