Second time visiting and yet again did not disappoint!! Great service, fab choice of options for brunch and the cafe just seems to have a good vibe. I had the avo on toast with poached eggs and it hit the spot, full of flavour and great sized portion. Will definitely be returning to tick off more of the food items on the list.

WOW, what a find this was. The menu sounded delicious, we ordered banana bread, compote, homemade granola, yoghurt and berries. The homemade banana bread and granola were wonderful. Coffee was superb and my GF &DF daughter had lots of choice. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Amazing food - I had smashed avocado and tofu on sourdough bread with added bacon… the tea was just what I needed and the later cappucino was perfectly executed and delicious.

Great little spot for a brunch bite or a coffee. Had a trim at the partner business Mugshot Barbers beforehand and got a little bit off my toastie. Pulled pork, Monterey jack cheese and a few jalapenos for a hint of spice. Cheers Jack for the speedy and friendly service, I will be back!
