About Side Story Cafe

Situated in the new Marrickville Library and Pavilion, Side Story cafe brings a specialty coffee experience to the Marrickville locals.

Providing delicious cafe fair from avo toast, a variety of sandwiches and fresh baked goods, we aim to showcase local produce providers such as Brickfields Bakery, Blackforest Smokehouse, Drunken Sailor Jams etc.

With a unique double service counter, we provide coffee to those patrons of the library as well as those in the outdoor mezzanine level. Takeaway coffee is also available. We're using biodegradable takeaway cups and packaging and encourage the use of keep cups where available!
