What people say
Great cafe. The food is very reasonable. There are the usual favorites like eggs on toast, granola and big breakfast. Thee are also some specialties like vegetarian bruschetta. The service is good and the atmosphere nice. There are bathrooms but they are outside of the building and a key is needed. There is plenty of parking and public transport.
I went in for breakfast and it was exactly what you want, everything cooked properly, decent portion and the place is clean. The coffee was good and decent. The staff was very friendly and attentive even after I finished my meal. It's a good spot whether you're grabbing a quick bite or sitting around chatting for a bit. Prices are fair, especially for the portion sizes.
Convenient quality cafe located in suburban Canterbury on Cooks Ave off Canterbury road. Their smashed avo was a tasty and well prepared dish with a side salad. Although not too busy for Friday lunch, it's definitely worth a visit if you're a local.
Had a really nice lunch here with my mum. The food came fast, it was fresh and delicious, especially the orange juice. The owner was super friendly. Definitely a hidden gem in Canterbury, worth a visit for a nice lunch.
What a little gem! Stopped in for breakfast and was so impressed. The service was fast, and the food was delicious. Great prices, too. The gentleman that served us was so friendly. I have lived in the area for years and didn't even realise this place existed. We had the big breakfast and cappuccino. Toby estate coffee hit the spot. Will definitely be back
