PROFILE BY BEST RESTAURANTS
On a busy street corner in the buzzing beehive of the Sydney CBD, a warm, welcoming space offers quality coffee and hearty comfort food. Fusing Italian with modern Australian, Macchiato is open from 7am to late every day, servicing both the shopping and corporate crowds. Its central city location makes it an ideal meeting point for work lunches, after-work nibbles and group gatherings, with takeaway, catering and function options also available. Macchiato has been part of the Pitt Street landscape for many years, with current owners George and his sister Leanne taking over seven years ago. The space benefitted from a makeover in late 2008, resulting in a colourful, contemporary interior. Splashes of red paint and modern artworks blend with banquettes and small wooden tables, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls opening out on to the bustling city streets.
