A few of my favourite coffee hangouts in Darwin
They have a delicious seasonal menu and I love the coffee here too. It's situated in a quiet street in Parap, and located less than 5 minutes from Darwin city.
I would recommend anything on this menu, but my favourites are the Indo Bowl and their freshly made juice - so yummy!
