Merlo coffee, as usual, is one of the best coffee for me for a long time. The coffee is great the atmosphere overall is great. I tried some dessert banana bread and Raspberry coconut slice and were so great. The only thing that upset me is the unwelcoming behaviour and face of few staff there which was the most wired thing for me to see it in Merlo cafe when compare this branch with others especially this branch is in GC the city of tourism from inside Australia and globally and the welcoming face is very important.

I have been getting coffee from the Ferry Rd Merlo since 2016 and I have always had consistently good coffee from here. The staff are all very friendly, and the barista's are so good at what they do. Even if the shop is very busy, the coffee does not take long at all. It actually blows my mind how efficient the Barista's are. Awesome shop!
