We just went in for a hot drink and enjoyed it. Very friendly staff and comfortable seating options inside and on the right. Coffee had delicious thick froth and the hot choccie was the best my son has had in a while.

The place is very cozy and the staff is extremely friendly. The service really stands out — they are genuinely warm and welcoming, which truly makes the experience. We had breakfast and it was very good overall. The avocado toast could be improved, as the bread felt more like a hamburger bun or a bagel, but that’s just a small suggestion. Everything else was great😊

Was seeking a vegetarian version of a ham & cheese croissant— delighted to have found one here. Avocado, tomato & spinach. As well as 'eggs your way' with avo. Exceptional service. Great food & vibe, highly recommend.
