House Of Expressos - Maitland

For many years, this place has been a favorite spot for daily visitors. I have never had a bad cup of coffee and the service has always been exceptional. A loyal group of regulars has made it a popular destination in the Hunter Valley. Come for the coffee, but stay for the atmosphere.

I thought supporting a local business would be a pleasant experience at this small café. However, I encountered a rude older man twice during my visit. I asked if I could bring in my own coffee cup for them to fill, which they did, but the man was very rude about it and insinuated that customers always complain. As an entrepreneur myself, I was surprised by his response and disregard for basic customer service principles. I will not be returning to this café and will make sure to inform others in my network about the negative experience so they can avoid it as well.

If you're looking for excellent coffee or delicious, fresh light food, you won't be disappointed here. The staff is very friendly and welcoming! - Brendan J.

I visited this caffe based on other trip advise comments and they were right, the coffee was good. but if they are after breakfast, they only serve light meals. So if they're looking for a bigger breakfast, they have to look elsewhere. brand Sydney...Australia

After reading the other reviews on TripAdvisor I opted to meet family members here for a catch up. We were not disappointed. I had a chicken and pesto toasted Turkish sandwich and it was absolutely delicious (my sister ordered the same and was equally delighted)....For coffee I ordered my usual, an extra hot vanilla latte in a take away cup. I was pleased to find that the coffee was neither overly sweet, nor bitter. That is, at some cafes my order is often too sweet, from too much vanilla, or too bitter, from not enough vanilla, but House of Espressos got it just right. When coupled with the delightful owners, I can see why this place has an outstanding TripAdvisor rating.
