Paramount Coffee Project

Surry Hills & Darlinghurst


Polished concrete floors and modern styling make this foyer cafe in the former headquarters of the Paramount film company an appealing space. Light and optimistic, it rotates its coffee so there's always something interesting brewing. Food has everything from Creole to Japanese influences.
