Field notes
The page maps the café as carefully as it presents the drinks: it covers the route from Ossington station, the permit-only parking change after six, step-free street access, and a same-floor washroom. Its operating rules are unusually explicit, including no wifi, laptops only before eleven, and advance notice for the single long table. The menu identifies preparation details such as two ristretto shots in the flat white and a six-minute Chemex served at the table.
