After more than 20 years since opening in Chippendale, Toby’s Estate continues to evolve, now transforming its flagship store and redefining the cafe experience.

Designed by architects Russell & George, the new space features an island brew bar for customers to get up close, ask questions and share their passion for coffee.
Overhead mirrors allow those who want to watch from afar whilst the glass doors at the back of the cafe give customers a behind-the-scenes look into their roastery.
A pet-friendly outdoor seating is on the cards, to make it a more welcoming space for diners who wish to visit with their fur babies.
Aside from allowing guests to chat with baristas, the experience lets coffee lovers learn more about the filtering process and see coffee being roasted. Hoping to connect more with their patrons, the owners make sure the staff aren’t only extremely knowledgeable to do the job, but are also warm and hospitable.
Tobby’s Estate classics are still available, like the iconic Woolloomooloo blend, and new favourites like the sweet and creamy Strawberries & Cream and Juicy Fruit blend and the ready-to-drink Not Hot coffee range.
It’s not all coffee though, as Toby’s Estate will continue to offer their hearty treats, such as the famous Wagyu or pastrami toasties or baguettes served with salmon and pickled zucchini. Those who crave something sweet can find their counter filled with sweet treats and pastries courtesy of Tuga, a bakery based in Clovelly.
They are open Monday to Friday 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and on weekends, from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. along City Road, Chippendale.
