Icoco Cafe

Coffee is great. Food is great. Staff are super friendly. It’s conveniently located at the bottom of my building, so it quite often stops me from venturing any further. Especially when hungover, I call to order and they prepare it all for takeaway. These guys are awesome.

What more can you ask? Books, coffee & fine food. Lovely café, nice surroundings & décor including the book shelf at the back of the room. There is a nice array of naughty treats & an extensive menu to suit all tastes. The table water comes in a lovely jug filled with fresh fruit which nicely infuses flavour.
Would recommend a visit!

A great little café, try the zucchini sweetcorn pancakes. I’m an addict, it’s healthy and delicious. There’s a nice chilled out atmosphere with fast service.

Excellent breakfast! As an American in AUS, I found everything to be very expensive, but relatively speaking, this is a good deal (2x coffee and a huge breakfast for $ 21).
Everything is very fresh, as I understand it organic and prompt service.
Highly suggest this place for food and to just chill. Only reason it was not 5 stars was service was a bit lacking, but again still prompt.

Love the bookshop section. Bit noisy when busy. Nice coffee. Nice brekky. Friendly staff. 5 min walk from station — great place to meet clients.

Cute little café with great breakfasts.
The Icoco Healthy Breakfast is delicious, although the hollandaise sauce is pretty awful — served on the side though — maybe that’s the «healthy» part.
I also snuck a taste of the house baked beans. Wow. Really good.
Coffee is nice. Water is serve-​yourself. Service is friendly but minimal.

This Book Café Styled Icoco café caught my eyes this morning.
I was attracted by «Zucchini pancake» which specialized on the sign board but changed my mind when I saw «French Crêpe with berries» on their menu.
My choice wasn’t bad at all, in fact it was beyond my expectation, so lovely. I ordered latte first, then cappuccino. Both are beautifully made with nice coffee art. I gave complement to a female staff then she told me «It’s not so difficult but you need love making it and put your love into it!» — she made me smile as It was exactly same statement what an instructor told me at the Batista course I recently took.
I also enjoyed the music at this café, easy listening, bit of mix of jazz and bossa nova. I only wished she could provide me the playing list, but it was owner’s selection in their iPOD so she couldn’t tell.
I was probably happy about this café, just because the staff was loving what she is doing. But it’s important, isn’t it?

Coffee is great, service is friendly but can be painfully slow on weekends. Great menu for vegetarians and health nuts.

Suggested by another coffee addict from twitter, I sought out this little funky café and once here was glad of my choice. The big draw card for me??? The aircon. After walking around North Sydney and Milsons Point, stepping inside for a coffee has rarely felt so good.
The service here is relaxed and calming. Perhaps the atmosphere is assisted by the bookshelf in the back of the shop… or perhaps it is the soft jazzy background music. Either way… it is a nice place to chill out.
The coffee was nothing fantastic though. While care was taken to ensure the coffee was freshly ground, having too much milk and froth was disappointing.
That said… while sitting there just chilling out, I drooled a little at the sight of the food coming out of the kitchen. Kinda wish I felt a little hungrier. Maybe next time…
