Testimonials – Calypso Cafe & Juice Bar

"Even though almond milk has been around for some time, plenty of cafes still struggle at perfecting an almond latte. I have been to Calypso more times than I can count to grab an almond latte, which the owner Jenny, never fails to ace. Always perfect temperature, perfect coffee to milk ratio, and ridiculously creamy.

They also have a "build your own" salad option that's of such good value it probably beats buying the groceries and doing it yourself. Huge servings and so delicious!

Got to be the best option for healthy eats between Maroubra and La Pa. Only cafe that does consistently good coffee in the area too accompanied with super friendly staff."

"Pleasantly surprised by this place! Customer service was top notch (hopsitality veteran here), excellent variety of food offerings, including freshly baked goods and custom choose-your-own sandwiches and salads.

"My day does not start right if I don't get a coffee from Cafe Calypso in the morning. Absolutely the best coffee in the Eastern Suburbs in my opinion and has totally saved me during work from home, lockdown and the pandemic. When ever I'm feeling bored or flat, I think thank goodness for Cafe Calypso and their lovely creamy lattes. Their service is always friendly and coffee is turned around quickly, and they are always open!!! (Tip: best thing on Christmas Day morning to get a coffee from Calypso! Yey!) My sons also love the bacon and egg rolls :)"

"After trying all cafes in Matraville, Calypso comes out on top for my preferred SFW coffee. Staff are friendly, efficient and super attentive. The coffee loyalty promotion is second to none. Great choice of café food with all the favourites available."

"Happened upon this place in early Dec after seeing it several times driving along Bunnerong Rd, and dropped in to receive welcoming service, great food options (from your scrambled eggs and chorizo, to deliciously affordable $10 açai bowls), and decent coffee. Love the consistency and old school service with a smile and familiarity."

"I have been here about 5 times in the past few months and the food and coffee never disappoints. The acai power bowl is the best I have ever tried and is great value for money. Their coffee is brilliant and service is always friendly. Will be back for sure."
