Cappuccino is the state’s most popular coffee according to new data but a northern beaches barista says the flat white is his top seller.
Rope & Anchor co-owner Andrew Bruzzese, based on Manly beachfront, says location influences coffee consumption.

“We’re on the beachfront, so it’s more touristy, ” Mr Bruzzese says.
Coffee consumption is also becoming more sophisticated, he says, with the rise of shrunk coffees. The Rope & Anchor goes through an average of 6-7kg of specially roasted coffee beans daily.
But cappuccino accounts for almost one-third of sales across the state, according to business Square’s Register app. Sydney coffee habits kick in at 8am too, earlier than Melbourne.
