Nice lunch option if you don’t need a speedy meal. There was a lot of flavour and texture to the curry. Was a good option to go for. Also the sandwich options were a nice change with options like duck available. I’d probably come back if I was passing through again. $33 for the curry with rice and roti and a coke . Plus free water

This was an amazing lunch, and for under $20 too. The chips were perfect and my roasted vegetable pana was the best sandwich I think I've ever had. This is going to be my go to lunch spot. Lovely fresh vibe as well.

Sage on Ann serves decent cups of Cooroy Roasters coffee. Was such a surprise to be offered a free cinnamon doughnut with every coffee purchase on the day. That was a nice little treat that went down easy. The interior and atmosphere is a little dated, not a trendy cafe and they aren't trying to be. The service was fantastic, prompt and friendly. Not my favourite coffee in the CBD but if you're looking for a good drop after 3pm Sage will hit the spot.

Been meaning to check out this coffee shop. Stopped in to grab take away coffee on the way to work yesterday. Ordered a small cappacino with oat milk. The waiting area was a bit awkward felt like I was blocking the doorway so I grabbed a seat. Didn't have to wait long before I was on my way. Didn't mind the taste of the coffee.

Great service and great coffee. Can be a bit noisy but a handy location for work catch-ups.

Simply sensational food in a stylish yet approachable cafe. Dine in or takeaway options seem equally accommodated with smooth precision, and the staff is very welcoming and kind. I ordered the Turkish Eggs and not only were the flavors phenomenal and the food fresh, but the dukkah covered poached eggs had almost a crisp exterior reminiscent of a scotch egg without the casing. I’ve never had anything like it, their culinary team is truly gifted. Thank you!
