"I had a very enjoyable dining experience here. Right from the get-go I was welcomed by friendly staff and made to feel like a valued customer. The toasted sandwich (with a small side of chips) I ordered hit my table in no time at all, and was then promptly devoured to satiate my grumbling belly (but also because it was just so darn nice to eat ). My Flat White Coffee was an absolute stunner too, and it had a creamy, full flavour that I have yet to taste elsewhere. It truly was a taste sensation . So make sure you take this unassuming cafè for taste test drive when you're in the mood for a coffee or a bite to eat."

"i have gone there with my family had a lovely vegetarian meal, they have plenty of vegetarian options and easy parking will recommend the paneer wrap and pan cakes"

"Great little out-of-the spot. Roomy, tons of parking and solid, well prepped food served in generous portions. Also pleasing is the relative lack of passing traffic and as the site is well back from the road, what traffic there is, is barely noticeable. Indeed it's refreshing to dine someplace that doesn't have a soundtrack passing Harleys, V8 Boganmobiles and endless doomf-doomf music blaring. My fish and chips was an honest serve and exactly what I expected. My dining partner's Eggs Bene was the same. If you're looking for delicious, satisfying food, in a quiet setting, this is definitely a place you should try."

"Coffee was quite nice. The poached eggs were undercooked and the baked eggs overcooked. Very nice service but slow (fine as we were not in a hurry). Good range of vegetarian options and gf available. 3% card surcharge is on the high side. Edit- despite the comment below that the surcharge is not 3% that is definitely what the sign on the EFTPOS terminal said."
