Review of Mojo by Nortox on Sun, 10 Feb 2008, updated Mon, 11 Feb 2008:

I appreciate that the place was very busy therefore I won't rate it harshly, however my cappuccino did take an incredibly long time to arrive. It was also a bit bitter and since their coffee beans are not a bitter variety, this makes me think the coffee (or portafilter to be technical) had been left to run a tad too long, however this is understandable when it is so busy.

That was the first time. However every time since then has been brilliant for coffee taste and quality (but still slow). I have now become a member and wouldn't hesitate to keep going there.

First time: 4/10

Since then: 9/10

Review of Pod by Nortox on Sun, 10 Feb 2008:

I work across the road beside the State Insurance Tower. Good coffee but the sort you just have to accompany a meal. It was brilliant coffee though, and although a tad more expensive than the average lunch the food was just as good.

9/10
