El Divo Espresso Bar

It’s a great location and this side of town sure needed some good coffee. I have been here now four times, as we drive past on Swann Road. It’s an easy and pleasant location. Can get a bit noisy from the traffic, but the décor, deck and plants provide a relaxing spot.
The staff have always seemed pleasant but a bit distracted with sadly each other. The good thing is that they seem to know their local regulars. Food was nice, nothing mind blowing to rave about, but decent yummy fare. Not particularly cheap for what it is. Coffee has ranged from average to really disappointing to not to bad. I just get really disappointed when the consistancy is what turns you away from returning to a place. :(
Overall a lovely spot, in a perfect location that could improve the coffee.

This place is my local. It’s excellent! Great coffee and coffee related food.

We dropped by to this espresso bar for some takeaway coffee after meaning to go there for a while.
It was a rainy day so there were only a few people there as you would expect for an outdoor espresso bar. We grabbed a couple of coffee’s which were quite nice and were educated by the baristas how there is No difference between a Latte and a Flat White. They could have dropped the attitude.
A croissant to go? Mistake. It was stale.
Overall the coffee is what saved them but I don’t think I will be going back.

«It’s called The Diva Lounge or something,» my friend said as he described a new café he’d seen on his walk to work. We googled and discovered that The Diva Lounge was a day spa. «Are you sure it’s the Diva Lounge? It says it is a day spa.» While we all made jokes about having a single origin delicately applied to our faces for a caffeine boosting facial, he remained adamant he’d seen food and people as he walked past.
So yes, The Diva Lounge is a day spa and it sits neighbouring a café that has been open not even a month called El Divo Espresso Bar. We arrived at about 12:30 on a Saturday and were the only ones there, although it did get a bit busier as the afternoon wore on. There’s a simple, one-​paged menu and we went with the pea and asparagus fritatta (I’m still not sure about the side of Grain Waves) and enjoyed cookies and cream cupcakes for dessert. They serve Schibello coffee and my flat white was definitely more enjoyable than my iced coffee. Oh, they also do a straight cold pour over coffee, too. Next time, Gidget, next time!
Overall it was a lovely way to spend an hour catching up with friends in what could have been our own backyard courtyard. With such an unassuming front signage you’d easily drive past this beauty without knowing it existed.
