Sutherland is not the first destination you might think of when searching for top-quality espresso, but these guys are a shining light in Sydney's southern suburbs. Their La Marzocco Linea espresso machine belies their location on a rather bland suburban street, but the inside space is city-chic – shiny and modern with white marble. As for coffee credentials, Dom [the owner] is an ex NSW Barista Champ and has recently opened White Horse after working in Tokyo for two years, helping Paul Bassett [World Barista Champ 2003] launch his Espresso enterprise there. White Horse currently uses coffee roasted by Mecca and they will soon commission their own roaster. If you're looking for great coffee in the southern suburbs, these guys nail it time after time.
After reading the great reviews we trekked to check out what the fuss is about. At 3 in the afternoon this place was seriously busy!! I have to say though my coffee was so disappointing...burnt and bitter...my partner and I left wondering if we'd missed something???
The guys at White Horse have to be one of the most dedicated bunch of espresso professionals around. Been there a number of times and the coffee has always bean consistently great. Never had a 'dud' cup. Highly recommended and definitely worth the car or train trip or plane to the Sutherland. They know how to squeeze every ounce of flavor from the bean. Sadly they are closed during January. Has to be one of the top 3 espresso bars in NSW. Food is basic but satisfies, but who cares it is all about the coffee and that is what matters. JD
Great coffee, the staff are fantastic, needs more seats and space
I have never been to White Horse Espresso but I can tell you if Dom is behind the Machine get ready for perfection. Please come back to Japan !!!
A stand-out cafe in the 'Shire'.
Great espresso on a par with the top 5 in your 2009 list. I have a double ristretto most days. The consistency is superb, each having a sharpness along with a great depth of flavour.
