Meet Gerard - Alexandria

Let's start with the delicious burger & fries. Well done, high fives galore... But, not that you asked. Imagine devouring a scrumptious burger (you with me?) and as soon as you lick the plate the sullen waitress languidly removes your plate with complete disinterest for how your meal actually was. Off she skulks into the kitchen. "We really enjoyed that!" but no one hears our cries of appreciation. It's only when we pay the bill that the lovely work experience fellow says "how was everything?" Phew. We will return for the burger, but not the apathetic waitress. As you were.

Cute cafe, always a line of people here for coffee. The menu was interesting, more than just your standard brekkie offering. Excellent coffee!

We popped into Meet Gerard on Saturday for brunch and didn't have to wait long for a table. I requested a table outside as we had the dog and were lucky to sit in the lovely autumn sun. The staff were quick to clean the table and take our order and we didn't have to wait long for our coffee or food. I order the best roast chicken sandwich with stuffing, aioli and rocket which was ok for $10 but a little dry with the bread to chicken ratio. We also ordered the Cilbir Eggs with Sucuk, yogurt, mint, dill, toast and Brussel sprouts which was delicious. The eggs yolks were runny, the Sucuk was spicy, the Brussels thinly sliced and was perfect with the herbs and yogurt dressing. It's a decent cafe with a good menu and quick service by staff.

The Smashed avocado was smashing!!! (Pardon the pun). Im very fussy with my coffee and the latte was sensational! made my morning; fast and friendly staff who went beyond to accommodate me.

Meet Gerard is my top cafe in Sydney. It's got a minimalist design which I love and the staff are always friendly and helpful. The barista is incredible, I have never had a bad coffee! My favourite from the menu is the french toast which just continues to impress me each time, but honestly everything is good here. It is worth going out of your way for this cafe.
