FBR

Cafe$

Backlit green interiors, a wall-mounted vintage television, and a young computer engineer-turned-barista at the helm of modified brewing equipment. This is FBR, the experimental, efficiency-focused, next-gen cafe where you can order a cup of specialty coffee after 3pm in Sydney (yes, really). The atmosphere is relaxed, if wilfully clinical, until the DJ turns up and the caffeinated rave begins.

Good to know: The cafe has started serving a small selection of focaccia sandwiches exclusively on Saturday.
