This was the weirdest parking lot ever. You can't drive in if someone else wants to exit as it only has one car space in width. There are like 12 levels with only two or three hard to access car spaces on each. It gets points for being a central location but it was a very poor car parking place. Would not recommend to anyone who does not have a very small car.

Worst car park ever. There's only one lane to enter and exit so while you are trying to drive out, the other car will drive in. The car park is very small so if you have a big car it's very difficult to reverse and turn. I will not recommend this car park to anyone.

Worst car park ever. Hardly any room if cars are going both ways as it's only 1 lane to enter and exit. Leaving nearly got stuck in the lift with 4 kids on a hot and muggy night but lucky it finally let us out on ground floor. Swiper wouldn't work to get out and took around 3 minutes for someone to answer help button. I'd say my kids will have a phobia of lifts for awhile now. NEVER AGAIN

I'm giving this car park for 3 stars due to the location is great and you can book online to get your car space. ($16 for weekend) - Good price for that area as well
Personally I will use the next Wilson Carpark (close by) a bit more expensive $25 but ... at least I have some space there
Please avoid if you
1. Have a big car - it is very tiny.... I drove BMW X3 and it is perfect fit to the space mark... cannot open the door... luckily car next to me doesn't park nicely... so I have some space to get in/out of the car
2. If you have a long car... if you dont get the space in L1.L2 .. you will not be able to park
3. super hard to return back to the surface... due to narrow space... it's kind of one-way road....
4. If your car is NEW or Near New... I am not sure if someone will scratch your car when they park or even when they u-turn...
** It has the light on the ceiling to tell you that some car is coming down... so you should not get out of your space .....
Also there is a light to tell the car at the surface to stop when some car is coming up!
Lift does seem to work one-way from lowest level to upper ground... I cannot get it go back down to where my car was parked.

I literally laughed out loud when parking. This isn’t a car park, it’s a vertical drop, 5 floors deep with 5 parking spaces per level which almost guarantee that your car will be hit due to the spacing. How funny.

The most strange and tiny carpark I've ever encountered. It's a one lane spiral going several floors down with maybe 30 spots total. Good luck if you find yourself head on with another car, if you can't squeeze past each other then one of you will have to do a lot of reversing. Don't use this carpark if you have a large car, it's not going to fit.

The smallest and tightest car park with two ways traffic but with ONE LANE ONLY. And even the car space is just very minimal and there is a big chance the passing car can hit your parked car, that’s how small it is. It’s cheap for $12 flat rate on the weekend but if your car get hit by a passing car trying to squeeze to pass, you’ll be paying excess for your car insurance for sure.

Garbage car park. The system did not read my online reservation because we left earlier than the time we booked. Strange that this happened as in other car parks managed by Wilson, it doesnt matter if we leave earlier. It normally just says exit no later than set time. Aside from that the spaces are terrible and I would not want to park there ever again. No access through by elevator only exit.

Went there on Saturday morning for brunch <br/>We ordered X-any factor which is croissant with chilli eggs, bacon, tomato, grilled mushroom and avocado. It was tasty. The beef burger with pineapple was delicious too. It came with hot chips.<br/>Service was ok. You need order at the counter.

more of a simplistic breakfast joint which i appreciate. The ham cheese and pineapple melt was on point and the thought of adding a cookie with the coffee was so thoughtful. Its the small things that count

Everything about this cafe is awesome. The staff were really sweet and helpful and we got a table straight away. Lots of good menu options too.<br/>The coffee and hot chocolate we ordered were perfect and served hot. This time i ordered the super mario mushroom and smash avo ,both tasted yummy and the portion was worth it with the price.

I’ve passed this cafe many a times on Macquarie Street but never wondered in. Stomach was grumbling for breakfast and headed on in. There tables inside and out. Grab a menu and table, decide what you want and go up to register to place your order and pay. You’re given a number and they’ll bring your meals/drinks out. Service is quite friendly here. <br/><br/>Went with a Eggs Benedict With Bacon and Cream Brulee Latte. Eggs were poached perfectly with runny yolks. Served on top of bacon, spinach, and toast. Very tasty combined with the hollandaise sauce. The latte was good but quite sweet due to syrup added. Served with a mini cookie on the side.

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful food. They nailed everything on the plate! Salmon was fresh, bread was fresh, poached eggs cooked perfectly. The barbecue sauce complimented the food perfectly. The green tea frappe was a bit watery though.

Work nearby this cafe, always got my coffee n the occasional pastry from Eggshell. The business owner and staff know me and have always been nice n friendly.<br/>This is the first time I’ve had a proper, cooked lunch: ordered their corn fritters with poached eggs and added on bacon.<br/>The verdict? Definitely value for money, and tastes very good. Even though I’m not the biggest fan of corn, the fritters are v nice n crispy around the edges. Eggs were poached perfectly and they’re very generous with the amount of bacon given. As always, will be back again!

Eggshell Cafe, as tragic as having an eggshell in your scrambled eggs. the food is bland and cold. coffee is pretty average, the staff there seem to not know how to give proper change 🙄 overall wouldn't come back to this eggshell

Eggshell cafe has been here for quite a while now and in recent times seems to be making more of an effort with their takeaway sandwich offerings on display and the general signage update. The decor is still pretty basic and functional inside and reminds you of the old school CBD cafes. There's quirky signs on the walls that seem mostly about coffee to help pass the time. A board advertising 'Pop is Back with his Soup' brings me in to check out. I don't know who Pop is but sounds like it should be homemade. Pumpkin Soup ($8.90) was quite nice in flavour. The sourdough good and an extra slice would have been great. Whilst ordering I spotted a Lemon Meringue ($4) which looked pretty good so had to try. Sugar hit sorted. Washed down with a Cappuccino ($4 dine in) using Caffé Aurora coffee which seemed to be quite a dark roast flavour so the sugar hit from the meringue definitely helped to balance it out a bit for me. Decent amount of seating outside although it is next to the very busy Macquarie Street traffic so perhaps not the most relaxing of outlooks. Staff were friendly enough and the prices seem reasonable although I wish the coffee was a bit cheaper for dine in like many other places that sit around $3.50 in the CBD.

Nothing particularly noteworthy about Eggshell but nothing particularly disparaging either. My omelette was very generous in size, filled with ample ham, mushroom and gooey mozzarella and filled me up for the day. Decent enough coffee also. It's a serviceable interior decor at best, so the option of a table in the morning sunshine on the sidewalk is a good thing.

Popped in here for a very last minute breakfast before work seminar. Coffee was average. Avoid the breakfast muffin like the plague - the lady said she could make it for me very quickly but I didn't realise this meant it was actually pre-made! All she did was reheat it and it was the most tasteless bacon and egg muffin I'd ever had.

It was a great exeperience at Eggshell Cafe. The food was great, especially the Big Breakie had made me full and the coffee had made me awake for the rest of the day. Strongly recommend for brunch in the heart of the CBD
