Easily the best savoury mince I've had for a long time. Staff were extremely friendly. Service was fast Coffee was brilliant and I'm no coffee connoisseur, but whatever they are doing, they are do it right ! If you're a local & you don't visit here, you are missing out. Great menu items to choose from

I had the pleasure of visiting this delightful local cafe on a Saturday morning, and it was bustling with many friendly locals. As I strolled nearby, the enticing aroma of coffee filled the air, and the homemade cakes looked delicious. I decided to order a medium cafe latte, and it did not disappoint. The fragrance was truly exceptional, making it the best coffee I've had all year. Furthermore, the excellent customer service ensured that I had a delightful and comfortable experience.

The Eggs Benny is on point. I have eaten in so many places around the peninsula and have usually tried the Eggs Benedict where ever has it. I must say, this place easily takes the cake. This one is full of flavour, cooked perfectly and is of a good portion size. I have also eaten quite a few Eggs Benedict interstate, and overseas when they have had it. I think this is in the top 3 that I have had - that is saying something. I will be back... The coffee here is also great.

I came to visit through the B105 review. Because I couldn't find the special menu that was unique to this place. I ordered bacon and egg roll. The portion size is large and $10? It is the best value for money. Dog bacon costs $4, but one small piece is nonsense. The staff is friendly.

We have been here three times. The food is fresh and delicious. There are a lot of good choices on the menu. Even when busy the staff is polite and friendly. My reason for four stars is the hours. The restaurant says it is open until 2pm but they turn people away starting around 1:15pm and start closing up. We were rushed out through our meal. The doors are locked at exactly 2pm. In our opinion they should just say kitchen closes at 1pm and close the doors if they are not going to take orders and make people who ordered on time feel rushed. We will go again but will need to be very careful of the time.

Great little cafe, very relaxed, and had the perfect middle ground of background noise, yet still being able to hear each other across the table. Very accommodating on a hot day when I asked for a pot of breakfast tea, but also ice cubes in the cup. I got good-natured chuckles from the staff, but they were happy to tailor my order.
