    Thoughtfully prepared plant-based dishes, including tofu scramble, Bonsoy coffee, and allergy-friendly selections that do not compromise on taste.

    They did an absolutely delicious tofu scramble - great taste and generous portion. Even the mushroom side was generous and very flavoursome.

  • Enclosed Dog-Friendly Verandah

    A covered and enclosed outdoor verandah allowing patrons to comfortably enjoy morning coffee and brunch alongside their dogs.

    Best of all the 'enclosed' verandah is dog-friendly, there's almost always a dog or two there and they're always well behaved and don't bother anyone.

  • Relaxed & Unhurried Atmosphere

    A welcoming, unhurried local atmosphere where guests can enjoy calm conversations without feeling rushed.

    Service is super friendly and attentive, but you never feel rushed. Hubby loves the coffee. Love sitting inside, building has a nice old cosy feel to it, but not noisy or too cramped to have conversation with others.

  • Calm Neighborhood Retreat

    A comforting neighborhood retreat offering calm indoor dining and shady terrace spaces for a tranquil morning break.

    A lovely friendly local café and eatery. I come here often for the beautiful fresh food and calm atmosphere. You can choose between the cosy indoor seating or shady shady terrace.

    The snickers slice was also very tasty (not at all coconut-oil-tasting as many are).
