5 ways has lots of cafe options. This is a good option. Coffee and food is good, but the standout aspect which sets it apart from the other cafes in the area is the view (if you take the time to look), which looks out over Paddington, down to the harbour.

Lovely spot for coffee in Sydney. I love the coffee here and it's always bustling and busy!

Gusto is a very popular cafe in Five Ways, Paddington. It is a lovely little cafe with great outdoor seating and indoor seating. They have lots of yummy cakes and delish breakfasts and lunches! I am always salvating over there display counter with all the amazing food!
THey also do a mean coffee and to die for hot chocolate!

Family friendly cafe, it is a bit pricey but this is to be expected in Paddington. Always quite busy with a lot of traffic and only cramped space indoors.

the quality of food here is second to none. the deli style cafe serves up a variety of foods daily and great coffee as well as a small deli that sells jams and cheeses as well as frozen or fresh pastas and gelato. the tables on the sidewalk are very european and i love this. can be pricey but worth it
