Barefoot Coffee Traders has a drinks menu that says no decaf and no large. The owners originally didn't want food on the menu at all – waffles were the compromise, and they remain the only option. This kind of conviction tends to produce excellent coffee, and at Barefoot, it does.
Single Origin blends rotate every few days alongside Toby's Estate fair trade house beans. For those inclined, an eight-hour cold drip is also on offer.
The café is small, open to the corner, and entirely focused on what it came here to do. Worth the five-minute walk from Elysium Manly along Raglan and Whistler Streets.
