Pablo & Rusty's

City Centre & Haymarket


Mega-busy and loud, with close-packed tables, this excellent cafe is high energy. The inviting wood-and-brick decor and seriously good coffee (several single-origins available daily) are complemented by a range of appealing, generously proportioned breakfast and lunch specials, ranging from large sourdough sandwiches to wholesome globally influenced combos featuring on-trend ingredients. Try to visit off-peak. No cash accepted.
