Cafe N Addictions

(Used to be Creatures of Habit)

22/01/23
First off presentation and smell of coffee is good. Velvety foam and not too much of it.


Good coffee flavour, a bit stronger than last weeks coffee which I like. I generally prefer a stronger coffee flavour in a large coffee so I can actually taste it through the milk.

Bit on the exy side at $5.79, though I'm sure this is actually on the cheaper side for Ivanhoe. Decaf always adds around 50c and large size usually adds another 50c to $1. I think there was a card surcharge as well because I'm sure I heard the lady serving me say it was $5.70. Definitely not the most expensive coffee I've had.

I would say it's slightly more pram friendly than Blue Apron, but not by much.

I almost didn't come out this morning since little miss had a pretty dreadful night waking us up at 2:30am with constipation and continued bottom pain from earlier in the day. Poor thing was crying as she was pooing. Thank goodness she pretty much went right back to sleep after that was over. She had also woken at around 11:30pm for another feed, which is so unlike her.

My poor husband had also somehow hurt his back whilst brushing his teeth. What I'd call an "over 30's" injury. So neither of us slept very well.

Anyway, I have a script to fill and think it would be a good idea to get some laxatives for our baby. So here I am.

Oh and I should say I've ended up at No. 10 on my list because No. 1 is still yet to re-open for the year.

I'm also still trying to work out a star rating system. It will  probably be out of five. I just need to work out what the five stars represent.

Until next time... Coffee good & slightly stronger

Edit: My rating:
  • Coffee flavour - 1
  • Coffee look - 1
  • Price - $5.79 = 0.5
  • Pram friendly - 0.5
  • Atmosphere - 1
Total: 4/5

  For Change Café Bellfield 21/07/2023 Decided to take myself out for lunch after finishing work at 1pm since I have a Dr's appointment at 2:30pm, and couldn't be bothered going home yet. I'd have to go home have lunch, go to the clinic, go home for probably an hour or less and then pick our toddler up at 4pm. A big no thank you to that. Instead I decided to hit up one of the cafes on my list, have a relaxed lunch, go to the Dr and just pick our toddler up a bit earlier. Time for the review: Coffee look - 1 Coffee flavour - 1 Price - $5.50 = 1 Pram Friendly - 1 Atmosphere - 1 Total: 5/5 Holy crap it happened! A café has actually lived up to my slightly unrealistic expectations 😂 The coffee was very well presented in a beautiful cup. In my excitement I may have forgotten to sniff before tasting, but not a big deal because the flavour is there in spades. The foam was luxuriously velvety and a great precursor to the flavourful coffee underneath. The price is fantastic consi...

Mick's at Sweet by Nature (Sweet by Nature) 11/11/2023 The last few weeks have been zooming by with such force I decided to stop for a breather coffee and lunch after errands. I almost didn't because I feel like I'll have so much washing etc when I get home. But it can wait. Let's review: Coffee look - 1 Coffee flavour - 1 Price - $18.30 for meal, so $5.30 at a guess = 1 Pram friendly - 1 Atmosphere - 1 Total: 5/5 I'm not overly surprised they got such a good rating. I've been to Sweet by Nature many times over the years and their coffee and food has always been good. The café section is now a separate business called Mick's at Sweet by Nature. Thankfully the quality of everything is still excellent. When I took my first sniff I knew I was in for a good coffee. The froth was lusciously velvety and the perfect intro on what was to come. As I took my first sip I got a good hit of flavour. The coffee they use is excellent quality. In terms of the price that is ...

Aisle 17 14/08/2023 I've come to a random café straight after work because it's really convenient and I realised it's been a few weeks since my last review. I think I'll have to put a fortnightly/three weekly reminder in my phone since I keep almost forgetting. #mumbrain As you will see I've come for lunch as well. So lots to explore in today's review. Let's get into it: Coffee look - 1 Coffee flavour - 1 Price - $6 = 0.5  Pram friendly - 0.5 Atmosphere - 1 Total: 4/5 The coffee is well presented and not stingy on the all important choc dusting. The foam was a little thinner that I like, but not a deal breaker. The flavour is fantastic. For a decaf it packs a good punch and not too bitter or acidic. Definitely on the more expensive side at $6, but given the quality I could almost let that go. Almost. There are only a couple of tables you would consider bringing a pram to. It's not ridiculously cramped, but would be awkward with a pram further in. The atm...
