Sydney Cafe Flour Drum named in top 10 Best Foodie Spots in Newtown

·

King Street, Newtown in Sydney is known for its abundance of restaurants and cafes that offer a wide range of cuisines to cover you for any mood you may be in. 

Cafe Flour Drum has been named in the top 10 Best Foodie Spots in Newtown by the Daily Telegraph and showcases its ‘handmade treats’ and ‘warm environment’. 

Co-owners, Christopher Heaps and John Agelatos have vastly different culinary histories, with Heaps spending most of his time in fine-dining and Agelatos more familiar with cafe environments. 

This unique combination has created the perfect synergy in Flour Drum, contributing to their 7 year success, and they say that their history allowed them to “open a whole new world”. 

Heaps and Agelatos have created a space for customers to unwind and enjoy their coffee and breakfast, and even through the difficulties that the pandemic presented to small businesses, Flour Drum stayed open. 

“We only shut for the two weeks,” Mr Heaps said. “So, we very quickly went to takeaway.”

In regards to what the future holds for Flour Drum, the owners say that they hope the cafe continues to grow as they do.

“Our philosophy was to start something that will grow with us over time,” Mr Heaps said. 

“This restaurant is really about us.”
