First time popping in and I was absolutely blown away. The cafe itself is full of beautiful details to take in, and the staff were just wonderful. I mentioned I was pregnant and I was so well looked after. Our waitress was incredibly attentive, easy to chat with, and genuinely cared. Even the chef brought our food out herself, I’ve rarely met a chef who takes that much pride in her work and gives such warm, genuine eye contact. I really appreciated these lovely ladies and can’t recommend the place enough :)
Tried twice, months apart, to order a short macchiato and got a latte both times. Yes, they offered to remake it — but anyone ordering a short macchiato usually doesn’t have time to stand around waiting. Seriously, it’s not complicated. Staff need proper coffee training.

We had extended family visiting from Sydney (who love their food!) and us locals were tasked with finding somewhere for our group of 12 to have brunch. A rainy Saturday morning, we took a punt and walked into Ground N Sound where it was quite busy. I explained that we had a group who were family visiting and Jodie and the team immediately sprung into action. They rearranged the room so that existing customers could continue enjoying their morning coffee and breakfast, and we could be seated and served. Once we had ordered our coffees and food, I started to look around the space; the faces of Elvis, Beasties Boys, Johnny Cash, Hendrix, Neil Young plastered on the roof, guitars, cassets, picks, microphones lined the walls. What an EPIC space and atmosphere for our muso family to accidentally stumble upon. Food was exquisite: potato rosties, poached eggs, avo toast, holumi grilled to perfection and an acai bowl that looked too good to eat! Sadly we didn't get any pics of the food because we immediately dug in. Key highlight for me was talking to the new owner Jodie. I thanked her from the bottom of my heart for making space for us today; we were meant to find this gem of a place. Us locals will be back, and it is now the place we will take our friends and family from now on. Thanks team!
4 to 4.5 stars for the coffee, tiramisu and the place. Loved the atmosphere, the graffiti walls, the music, the music collection and memorabilia. The coffee and tiramisu are delicious, nice staff (albeit a little clueless). 2.5 to 3 stars for the food. The dishes we had were pretty basic, rather small portions and nothing special, definitely a disappointment compared to the other cafe's we've been dining at. We had the steak sandwich which had good flavor, the teriyaki chicken with salad was sad and tiny, and had no enoki mushrooms like the description stated, english breakfast plate and salmon eggs benny. Might go back to have their delicious tiramisu and coffee again though, and for the atmosphere and live music.
