I recently visited Cali Press on Market Street, and I was thoroughly impressed. The food quality is outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. What stood out even more was how quickly my meal was ready; I didn’t have to wait long at all, which is always a plus when you're in a rush. The ambiance of the place is beautiful too! Whether you're stopping by for a quick bite or relaxing in their vibrant atmosphere, Cali Press delivers a great experience all around. Highly recommend!

Overall I like it! A good mix of vegetables and flavorful ingredients. Salmon is quite nice but the sauce is a little salty, carrots are yummy. The price point is slightly high but the portion is good. Fried shallots do not really go well with the bowl in my opinion, prefer to go without.

I’ve tried the açai bowls, sandwiches, warm bowls and smoothies, everything is delicious and they are super friendly. The atmosphere is really good and the service is fast. 100% recommended!

Had the tofu tamari vegan toastie! So good, it’s a very large portioned sandwich. Highly recommend. My friend and I shared the Cali Berry, we liked it but thought the coconut flakes inside weren’t needed. We went during the lunch rush so it was very busy and packed but our orders came out relatively quickly. And the staff was kind and helpful.

The service is incredibly fast and the food is absolutely delicious. The sandwiches, bowls, and the acai smoothies are all amazing! This place is a must-try, everyone should know about it. Highly recommend!

I absolutely love this place and wish there were more like it in Sydney. Great healthy food, good coffee, and a clean, light-filled environment.

I ordered “Burrito Bowl” regular one. It wasn’t bad at all because it had high protein and it’s an easy meal to go for rush hour. I personally like it and I’ll be back to try more
