About Gypsy Espresso | Potts Point Cafe

Between the smooth cold brew and warm neighborhood greetings, morning rituals settle in effortlessly over a quiet Macleay Street corner.

  • House-Roasted Coffee: Beans are roasted in-house, crafting bold espresso and smooth cold brew daily.
  • Early Morning Hours: Opens early for morning espresso and savory plates before neighboring spots begin service.

Reasons to Visit Gypsy Espresso

Why Potts Point locals choose Gypsy Espresso for breakfast and specialty coffee

  • In-House Roasted Specialty Espresso

    House-roasted beans deliver a rich, distinct roast profile across long blacks and daily espresso orders.

    it was probably the best long black I’ve ever had. ( they roast their own coffee beans. )

    Carissa Jane

  • Signature Made-To-Order Breakfasts

    Fresh morning fare features signature velvety scrambled eggs, spicy chilli scrambles, and savoury breakfast sides.

    The velvety scrambled eggs are delicious and reliably good, and their espresso does the trick just nicely.

    Margot Laird

  • Leafy Street-Side Dining Ambience

    Heated outdoor pavement seating lets patrons dine in a tranquil, tree-lined Potts Point street setting.

    very special sitting out in the quiet street with beautiful green trees. Very calming spot.

    Brendan Milton

  • Heated Neighborhood Terrace Setting

    Outdoor heating and community energy create an inviting local atmosphere for neighborhood regulars.

    Lots of outdoor heating door and has a very local feel.

  • Early Morning Cafe Access

    A dawn-friendly schedule accommodates morning walkers and commuters before surrounding cafes begin service.

    they open a bit earlier than other coffee places which I found very convenient.

  • Peaceful Dawn Refuel

    Patrons can secure specialty drinks and quiet al fresco morning seating during the day's earliest hours.

    It was lovely sitting outside in the early morning too.

    The long black I had here (several times) was - in my opinion - the best in Sydney, and that’s a high bar!

    Edmund Wellenstein

  • Cold Brew

    The cold brew was outstanding: incredibly smooth, bold, and exactly what I needed.

    Luis Sebastian Ramirez Amelia

  • Avocado Bruschetta

    Beware ; the avocado bruschetta with bacon and scrambled eggs is ADDICTIVE!
