About Barrel One Coffee Roasters Potts Point

Small, buzzing, and straight to business—Barrel One brings genuine New York chew to Roslyn Street. Potts Point regulars steer out-of-towners here for bagels with real bite, loaded with heavy-handed schmear, cured salmon, and a squeeze of lemon, or pastrami with a fried egg. Behind the counter, the crew skips drink-size debates with a single standardized cup, pulling espresso and running Kenyan batch brew through a self-serve tasting tap.

  • NYC-Style Bagels: Crisp-crusted bagels with proper crumb density, layered with rich cream cheese, salmon, or hot pastrami and egg.
  • Specialty Roast Program: Single-origin Kenyan filter and balanced espresso pulled consistently without size gimmicks, plus self-serve tasting taps.
  • Roslyn Street Energy: A compact, fast-paced corner with outdoor sidewalk seating tailored for morning catch-ups and people-watching.

    The highlight is Oat Jaffa Hot Choc. They can make it cold so my friend asked for the cold version. It has been a long time since last time I had such an amazing chocolate drink!
