Ka-Fe, North Wollongong, NSW
Located at 83 Montague Street in the border between the suburbs of North Wollongong and Fairy Meadow, they are not at the beach, but a ten minute drive to the nearest surf. It does not matter, for increasingly Ka-Fe is creating its own waves. Ask for a cold drip. The food menu can be limited, but come here for the coffee! Check out their special music sessions and coffee appreciation mornings.
The chicken pastry (above) I had, tasty to a bite, whilst catching up with Dyl.
Vaughn and Brad were manning the fort that day. The setting is idyllic and spacious, there is a wood feel to the accessories and furniture provided - and I love the chalk board behind the main counter. There is a demand for the roasted beans to take home. Serious drinkers can ask for their specific and peculiar choices - and get it happily, with satisfaction. Currently it is not open on weekends,except one Saturday a month with a fuller food menu, but anyone can check it out on weekdays between 630am and 4pm each weekday. Yes, they have a barista training school (Grind on Demand) and offer several blends for you to consider.
