    Fantastic place we had iced coffee and it was superb a variety of brunch meals and all very tasty and big portions . Staff were fantastic and attentive and made the meal even better !!

    Fettuccine was like soup so much so it should have had bread with it. Son asked what kind of soup it was. An expensive one for $25. Kids fish stix lumps of unbattered slime fish. Kids burger really a sandwich with the added extra of a hair. Service lacking, overall disappointing.

    After dining at this cafe since opening years ago, I will NEVER go back. I find the new owners rude, the staff rude, they never smile and looks like they really hate their jobs.The last meal I had was terrible. The pasta was the worst I have ever had there.The tables were not cleared and it wasn’t as if they were busy at all.I have taken a lot of customers there but will never see another dime from me.

    Brilliant little cafe always buzzing with people and atmosphere, To class food and service second to none. Coffee’s are of the highest standard and you’ll be hard pressed to find anything to fault this cafe on absolutely fantastic.

    A great place at the weekend for lunch. Coffee good as well. Good coffee destination for cycling around the lake.
