Reuben Hills occupies a long industrial room on Albion Street in Surry Hills, near Central. Exposed cement walls, long tables and a mezzanine define the space. It takes walk-ins, so allow time for a table at busy periods.
Coffee is roasted at the Marrickville production site and served here alongside a substantial breakfast and lunch menu. Retail beans and brewing equipment are available to take home.
Coffee
Reuben Hills buys coffee through producer relationships and roasts in Marrickville. The Surry Hills bar serves house espresso and filter; check which single origins are available before ordering.
The retail selection includes espresso and filter coffees, decaf and brewing equipment. Tell the team how you brew at home if you need help choosing a bag.
Filter
Choose a filter coffee when you want to try a single origin separately from the house espresso. Allow extra time for a brewed-to-order cup if the café is busy.
Food
The menu draws on the regions where the coffee is grown. The Not Reuben sandwich and fried chicken are established options, with seasonal dishes alongside.
Service & Room
Long tables and exposed concrete make this a lively dining room. The walk-ins-only policy means a weekend visit may involve a wait; arrive earlier if you have a fixed departure time.
