Amazing coffee and the perfect place if you’re looking for beautiful, healthy and filling sandwiches. They have a great salad section and plenty of fresh bread options to choose from. Everything feels fresh and well prepared. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick coffee or a proper meal, you will definitely love it. Highly recommend checking this place out!
I love this cafe. They have great food for both eating in and takeaway. The salads you can get takeaway are really tasty. Today I had the Nookie bowl eating in and it was amazing. There are multiple types of seating options. The location inside the building is nice and pleasant atmosphere.
Came in for lunch and got the schnitzel, club sandwich and smoked trout stack. All dishes were pretty tasty and well presented. The schnitzel had a light herb crumb which was nice and it wasn’t thin nor dry which was great. The smoked trout stack was fantastic and so was the club sandwich. My only recommendation is the gravy accompanying the schnitzel could be double the portion (felt like it was two dips worth and considering the schnitzel was quite large it just needed more). Kill the mayo and replace it with gravy IMO . Smoothies were quite nice also albiet a smidgen warm. Customer service was great, very friendly and efficient. Location wise it’s opposite the Wynyard train station Clarence street exit so very convenient to locate. Plenty of seating outdoors and indoors. Menu items were very affordable considering it’s location.
Cute coffeebar/bistrot, with welcoming and nice wait staff, delicious healthy food, good coffee, and a nice atmosphere. Just a few steps away from Wynyard Station is a perfect spot if you want to relax in downtown Sydney...
It’s a nice cozy coffee bar and lunch place if you want to grab a quick bite. Very conveniently located outside Wynyard station. It has plenty of seating area where you can have a quick chat.. I liked the convenience, coffee was quite average. I would like to suggest that if you are ordering just coffee, there shouldn’t be any need to order inside and then come out again to get your coffee, the payment can happen at the coffee bar outside, will make life easy
Spacious cafe with heaps of seatings! It’s very peaceful and they offer lots of breakfast and lunch options
Nook Clearance Cafe is a charming little cafe in Sydney's CBD. The interior is decorated in a warm and inviting style, with exposed brick walls and wooden furniture. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the food is delicious. The menu features a variety of international dishes, including breakfast items, salads, sandwiches, and pasta dishes. There is also a selection of coffees, teas, and smoothies. I tried the Grilled Halumi Panini, The Halumi was perfectly grilled and served with a generous amount of vegetables and sauce. The coffee was also excellent, and I enjoyed the fact that they use locally roasted beans. For Smashed Avocado Toast, The avocado was just a spread on toast. We felt that the amount of avocado was not generous, given the price of the dish. We would have appreciated a larger serving of avocado. Overall, I would give Nook Clearance Cafe a 4 out of 5 stars. It is a great place to go for a casual meal or a coffee break. The food is delicious, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere is relaxed. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good place to eat in Sydney. Note: It is located in front of Wynyard station (Clearance St exit).
Amazing food.. many options. Beautiful coffee. Gf available. Top notch. Plenty of seating away from the hustle n bustle.
