Estabar needs little introduction. Even if you're new to Newcastle, chances are that your list of coffee must-visits will include that caf� opposite Newcastle Beach. Why you ask? And how is it that Estabar has managed to pump out the espressos and gelatos, non-stop, for nine years? Well the secret ingredient seems to be its simplicity and commitment to providing customers with a perfect mix of nutritious food and fresh flavours. And of course there is business owner Bec Bowie and her passion for providing a delightful caf� experience. Bec puts her heart and soul into every project she takes on which perhaps explains how Estabar has managed to stay fresh and interesting for so long. Quality has always been the key, and perhaps why the regulars keep coming back, with all products sourced from provedores who are artisan in their approach. Like their delicious gelato that is made by an Italian family in Sydney who have four generations of gelato making behind them. The coffee in your cup is Sydney based Single Origin Roasters, whose sustainable approach to business and commitment to developing strong relationships with farmers from around the world share a like-minded philosophy to that of Bec's. So if your one of the few that haven't experienced Estabar yet, perhaps today is the day and you should drop in for a coffee, a bite to eat and soak up some of that fresh sea air from Newcastle Beach.
