Freshly made everyday on site. If you like croissant and doughnuts with good coffee this place is for you. Good view of the water. Take the 75 or 70 tram from the front of the apartment towards docklands. Service is notoriously bad but don't be discouraged!

The oldest cafe in Centre Place, squirreled away near the photogenic degraves street. Half of the city passes by here every morning. $12 bagel and coffee deals get me everytime. Look for the extended 'world coffee' list on the back of their menu
