Elatte is a little cafe located in the suburb of Padstow Heights across the road from its iconic water tower. 

Access is not as straight forward is is could be, as it's located in an old suburban house there is no dedicated parking spaces and lots of steps leading into the front entrance. In light of this however there is ample street parking nearby and also a side entrance that leads into a nice outdoor seating courtyard. Additionally out the front of the building there is smaller tables for outdoor service.  

In the courtyard there is some space for a wheelchair however, it is especially tight due to the big tables and benches along the fence. There is also a bathroom on site however it's access is limited having to go up some stairs in order to enter the building. Once inside there is ample space in the bathroom but no rails or other tools of assistance. It is also a shared all gender bathroom. 

Overall the staff seem accommodating if there is accessibly needs however are very limited by the space of the building. 

Elatte Cafe

XS is a cafe located along the back side of Revesby in the plaza along Salems Parade and behind the Woolworths. There are accessible parking available however there are few spots available. In the main car park further down Salems Parade there are significantly more accessible spaces.

Heading into the cafe there are steep ramps and drops from the footpath which could be dangerous if you’re not careful. heading into the cafe however there is some space between tables however it could be tight with a wheelchair. There is outdoor seating available however it is all the way through the cafe at the back. 

While XS Revesby has bathrooms for customers, they are down a small hallway and are also very small and not very accessible at all. The next closest bathrooms nearby would be the public ones in the station carpark or at the station. The nearest pathway to get to these other bathrooms are blocked by poles and lots of other public hazards, meaning that you’ll have to travel very far for a usable accessible bathroom. 

XS Espresso Revesby

Located with the petrol station lot Subway has lots of areas that would be good for parking however only one accessible space allocated. Inside there is lots of room at the tables and counter. There are no bathrooms on site but the petrol station bathroom may be available.

Coffee with Tom is a little cafe located along Marco Avenue. As it is located slightly above normal street level there is a public ramp that leads right up towards the cafe and small outdoor seating area. This outdoor area is a bit of a tight fit for things like prams and wheelchairs, there is space to sit and eat. Indoors as the cafe is quite narrow there isn’t a whole lot of mobility, especially towards the main counter. 

The cafe doesn’t have its own bathrooms but uses the bathrooms of the adjoining apartments, while the long lead up to these bathrooms aren’t accessible. The two bathrooms are single sex and inside have a simple stall and sink. Due to the bathroom being behind multiple locked doors you need to ask staff to grant access, and with a long lead up and wait for availability, using the other public or train station bathrooms would be significantly more accessible and efficient.

The cafe doesn’t have its own parking but is located a moderate distance away from the train station parking as well as the Woolworths parking.

Coffee With Tom

Bump and Grind is a cafe located in the heart of Revesby in close proximity to the car park and train station. 
Bump and grind is very accommodating in most ways, having lots of outdoor seating and a portable ramp for indoor access as well. In the case of wet weather there is less outdoor seating however there are still spaces that are undercover, barriers and table arrangements can easily be adjusted. 
Parking in the local car park across the road is very easy to access and close by to the cafe, with only two pedestrian  crossings in between. 

The only downside to Bump and Grind is the lack of an accessible toilet, the toilet on site located down narrow hallways leading to a courtyard out back with many steps in between. An alternative toilet/bathroom option is the public ones located in the park across the road or the train station bathrooms nearby. 

Overall Bump and Grind is a great and mostly accommodating venue, only limited by its lack of bathroom access due to the old building.

Grain’d is a medium sized cafe in Revesby. There is an accessible car spot nearby in the nearby shopping area near XS cafe however the main carpark has lots of accessible spaces available and is only a short distance away.

Inside the cafe they have a single bathroom that is shared, but has lots of space inside and a rail. During my time visiting they were cleaning so there would normally be less clutter.

There is lots of table space though when it’s busy it may be a tighter fit inside, however outdoors offers lots of space and flexibility. While the street is busy sometimes, it is usually not super loud or intrusive.

This carpark in Padstow is mainly for the station, as well as regular traffic inside Padstow. There isn’t lots of accessible spaces but on the lowest level there are a handful available, further up into the carpark are just regular spaces for what I could find. Traveling from the station into the rest of Padstow is easy, either needing to cross at the pedestrian crossing, the traffic lights, or both.

There are also toilets available in the carpark, one large accessible toilet and then a bunch of unisex ambulant toilets.
