Just went here for the first time as had to wait for a doctor’s appointment. Dropped in for a coffee, service was great , coffee long black delicious. Banana bread also very tasty. But best of all the atmosphere in the cafe was relaxing and inviting. They have outdoor sitting and would be perfect to sit outside on a sunny GC day. I will be back!

I ordered a flat white and the Tuscan salmon. The coffee was rich in flavor and came with beautiful latte art, which made it even more enjoyable. The salmon was cooked to perfection, and the combination with the accompanying vegetables was absolutely delightful. Highly recommend!

Great cafe that is quiet, plenty of seating inside & outside & great coffee. The staff are always friendly, smiley & helpful. If you enjoy reading newspapers or magazines, there is a selection to choose from. A cabinet full of cakes, muffins, wraps, croissants, slices & cookies….very difficult to resist.

Best hot chocolate on the Coast! 🤩 Grabbing a coffee here before work has become part of my daily routine. Now that the weather’s getting colder, their hot chocolate is definitely worth trying — super rich and comforting. The staff are always friendly and welcoming too!

I would still like to give a 5-star rating, even though my coffee was served and finished before my main course arrived, which was rather disappointing. The food service was quite slow on Saturday; however, the dishes were delicious, which made up for the delay. Unfortunately, I was unable to take a photo of the flat white this time. On my next visit, I will request that the coffee be prepared once the food is ready. Overall, well done to the team — please continue the great work.

Honestly a 10/10 café. Both the coffee and the food are amazing, not just me, my partner thinks so too. I pretty much come here every time I have a day off, just to enjoy some brunch and a good coffee. My go-to drinks are the vanilla latte and the strawberry matcha. And I have to say their strawberry matcha is the best I’ve ever had so far. As for the food, everything I’ve tried has been spot on. Nothing disappointing at all. The ingredients are always super fresh, and I’m still working my way through the menu. Thinking of trying their burger next time. Also, every staff member here is so friendly and welcoming. The service is genuinely great, and it always puts me in a good mood. Speaking of which… I’m already planning to come back tomorrow to enjoy my day off again 😄
