Great coffee and food. Really busy at times for takeaway coffee but eating in is the way to go. Plenty of tables out the back and down the side. Limited breakfast options but lunch menu was very tasty. Beer and wine available too.

We came for our anniversary dinner in April and were served by Paul and a few others on Vietnamese night. The food was amazing, and the staff were so thoughtful—they even brought out one of our meals separately since we were planning to share. The new owners are definitely doing an amazing job, and we can’t wait to come back for the spring rolls. Thanks, guys!

I’ve had a lot of breakfasts in my time but this was one of the best! I can highly recommend the baked beans brekkie. Coffee is on point. Love the atmosphere and we even bought some clothes. Highly recommend.

Beautiful atmosphere indoors or out to relax and enjoy quality food and drinks. Reasonable prices and good service. Plus the Asian influence home decor and clothing are worth browsing. My wife’s favourite clothing shop.
