Destination | The Grounds of Alexandria

TEXT by Celine MacKay | PHOTOGRAPHS by What a lovely place! The Grounds of Alexandria is a coffee roaster alongside a cafÃ© and luscious herb and heirloom vegetable garden. Located in Sydney, Australia in a circa 1900 pie factory, the cafÃ© has embraced it's industrial roots by incorporating vintage industrial elements such as the exposed brick, black steel shelving, windows and doors, concrete floors, minimalist subway tiles and metal Tolix chairs. Aside from the heritage building, The Grounds is committed to sustainable practices through it's pursuit of local and fresh ingredients, most of which is harvested straight from the garden, along with eggs from their three hens.
