good coffee in newport doesn't announce itself loudly. little gecko boutique cafe on blackshaws road sits in that quieter part of the inner west where locals tend to know what they've got. this is a roaster as well as a cafe, which means what ends up in your cup has been thought about from a lot further back in the process than most places bother with. the local following here isn't casual, it's the kind that builds when a place genuinely focuses on the coffee rather than the concept around it. if you're coming from the city side, blackshaws road is worth the detour. start with a filter if they're pouring one.
