Parra City Cafe & Takeaway
42 George St, Parramatta

I had a spare minute this morning, so I took a walk in search of a random cafe to have breakfast in. Randomly enough, I ended up in front of this place and decided I didn't feel like walking any more, so in I went.

The setup of the place is more takeaway than cafe, though the staff are quite willing to let you pay later if you've ordered non-takeaway coffee. There's a really nice aura to it, and the staff are really friendly and efficient. I ordered a raisin toast and cappucino and it arrived pretty darn quickly!

The cappuccino was way better than I expected, and I was expecting pretty decent coffee in the first place. The raisin toast was nice and warm, and went with the coffee perfectly - and all for $3.50. For comparison, your average city or Starbucks (bleah) coffee costs that much alone.

It was a quick breakfast, but I enjoyed it a lot... I'll be going back there for sure.
