2 months agoCame in to my local after a great run with my friend, we both asked for have here and mine was in a takeaway cup, I went up and said oh we asked for have here and she just poured it into the cup, I then asked very nicely if she could remake it (short blonde hair barista), if it was busy I’d be fine but it wasn’t so she eventually remade it like this (second picture), unsure if it’s new staff but I’m most definitely not a complainer hahah, just some basic kindness 😢

9 months agoMy husband and I go here most weekends to grab a coffee and yummy food then take it over the road to the beach to walk the dog or in reverse. Love it! Great coffee and the cinnamon buns are the best! 😋. Dog friendly too. Yummy vegan options too.

a month agoA local institution with excellent sandwiches and consistently high-quality food and service. The fact that they close late is also a massive bonus. You are a highlight of my week (I often ride my bike to the mount to grab a late lunch). Thank you guys for being so awesome :)

4 months agoI just love this cute little cafe by the beach! It has become one of our favourite regular spots. My boys and I grab coffee and ice creams from there almost every weekend. It has an awesome vibe and even when it's crowded it feels much nicer than all the posh cafes by the Mt.

11 months agoWent here for lunch during rush hour on a Saturday. Quick service! We tried their toasted sandwiches and coffee. The Kimcheese Toasted Sandwich was excellent! The fermented tang is strong but offset by the two cheeses. It’s made with the olive rosemary sourdough. An absolute flavour bomb. On the tangy side — would be a good toastie to share! My family tried their Hawaiian Toastie and their Pulled Pork Toastie. They rated them highly and would come again soon! Next time I’d try their Vegan Toastie.
