Agatha Coffeeshop & Deli

(Was called the Corner Store Deli when I made the list initially)

18/09/2023

I've put a reminder in my phone for every fortnight to go to a café so I don't forget. At 2.5 weeks in between cafes this time I think it's working. I'm also finding Monday or Friday after work ideal since I work half days and don't like to over plan my weekends too much. our daughter also gets too restless in the pram now which makes things awkward for café visits.

Another good reason to do my reviews on Monday or Friday is to actually treat myself to a nice meal and hopefully good coffee as well. It gives me a chance to unwind and relax, instead of going home and probably doing housework or something on my to do list.

Let's dive in:

  • Coffee look - 1
  • Coffee flavour - 0.5
  • Price - $5.60 = 0.5
  • Pram friendly - 0.5
  • Atmosphere - 1
Total: 3.5/5




The coffee looked great and had a little coffee aroma. The foam was velvety and just the right amount. Unfortunately, the coffee flavour does get a bit lost, but from what I can taste it is good coffee.

At $5.60 the price isn't too bad.

Not super pram friendly, but there are a couple of outside tables.

The atmosphere is great, and I had a burger and fresh cooked crisps which were delicious. I think it's worth it for the food. Good quality and reasonably priced.

The day after my last review we went into the city to see the Fantastic Beasts exhibit at the museum. It was fantastic and our daughter was overall pretty good for our first family outing using public transport.

We got through accreditation fine with no recommendation for chances, which to me is unheard of. We must be doing something right.

That weekend I turned 35, got my bee tattoo that I've wanted since I was 30. That night my husband and I went to the Barbie moved and to dinner straight after. Was so nice to have an evening out again. On the Sunday we got together as Moon Dog World for lunch with my family and back home for cake.

Our Daughter is getting more and more confident on her feet everyday. It's hard to believe she will be 15 months this week.

This is my husbands second last week of going into the office 3 days a week. At the start of October he will be down to one employer (thank god) and only working from home. Will be good to see if that gives us all a better balance before he starts university next year.

I will go back to study, it's just a matter of when.

Until next time...

  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...
