Bay Ten Espresso - Lavender Bay, Sydney

Bay Ten Espresso in Lavender Bay has a fascinating origin story, born out of a need for quality coffee in North Sydney and housed in a refurbished warehouse that once contained a shipping container from a notable drug bust. Nathan Devlin, previously of HAM espresso in Cronulla, transformed the space into a unique café adorned with long metal tables and vintage palettes for seating, with a shipping container serving as the central barista counter. The menu features breakfast options like banana bread and homemade granola, along with fresh sandwiches made with produce from a nearby farm.

The café caters to cyclists with its cyclist-friendly setup and location, attracting both casual riders and serious cyclists from neighboring bike shops and physiotherapists. Coffee offerings include a house blend from White Horse Coffee in Cronulla, with the cold brew being a standout featuring Devlin’s own Black Magic blend. Bay Ten Espresso keeps its menu simple yet satisfying, offering good coffee and hearty sandwiches, making it a popular spot among the Sydney cycling community. Whether it’s a quick bite or a coffee fix, Bay Ten Espresso offers a unique experience in Lavender Bay.
