Popped into here for a quick hit of the dark stuff. A very artsy style cafe with modest amount of seating indoors and outside in the little courtyard area. Coffee is served in handmade clay cups which is where the cafe gets its name. The coffee is really well executed. The food selection is limited so it’s more of a cuppa with friends than a lunch destination. Overall a nice vibe and a quiet place off the main road.

Takeaway coffee cups only, bad vibes. We came for the gorgeous clay ones. Was then given the wrong coffee (ordered soy latte and got a soy capp). Coffee cups are one of the biggest polluters in Australia. Real shame, won’t be coming again.

A small, discreet coffee shop tucked away behind the main street. You have to know where it is, but once you step inside, you won't regret it. The atmosphere is calm and completely separated from the noise of the road, which makes it a very pleasant spot. The tables are well spaced out and it's easy to tind a seat. The drinks were excellent, served in pottery that gives the place a unique and very appealing character. As for the food, it was simply very good: crunchy bread, fresh ingredients, and everything came together perfectly. A genuinely great experience. Prices are very reasonable. I went there after reading the Google reviews and I was more than satisfied with my visit. A great place to stop by if you're in the area - highly recommended.

A hidden gem! My husband and I were at Clay Collective and had a reuben and cheese toastie with coffee and hot chocolate. Food and coffee were excellent, served in artistic handmade unique pottery by very nice people in a warm and inviting decorated ambience.. Thoroughly recommend it! Could not resist acquiring a couple pottery pieces by the local artist.

Quaint quirky little place, full of cute pottery pieces. I had one of the best cups of coffee I have had this year. The staff in there are friendly and pleasant. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a great coffee in the area. It is always consistent. This place deserves every star they get. They have earned it. Keep up the good work. See you again soon. We will be back.
