Bathurst weekend poped in with a group of 5 for breakfast. Good variety on menu. Eggs Benny was nice need to increase the egg size as they seamed small. They also missed 1 of our meals so had a wait till they cooked another one .the coffee was good nice and hot as ordered. Liked the bear
$13 for a bit of bacon and sliced cheese on stale bread. Very dry. I can’t understand how anyone thinks this passes for good food. It doesn’t. Unfortunately I was 20 minutes away from the cafe when I bit into it. If I was closer I would have taken it back. What made it worse was I bought 2 of them.
Very good coffee and food. Grate service, very cheerful service staff.
Really appreciate that they open early 7 days a week. Coffee was good, but i didnt really like the mushroom quiche (too doughy for me). Genuinely entertained by the barista singing.
Dropped in 30 minutes before closing. The entrance was blocked with stacked chairs, creating a trip hazard. Coffee didn’t taste good and wasn’t extra hot as requested. Disappointing experience considering the good reviews — hopefully just an off day, but every customer counts.
Just came in for a hot chocolate and the chef's special today and have to say it was one of the best dumplings I've ever had. The eating area though small, had good lighting, sombre acoustics accompanied by coloured drawings and a simplistic charm that I found both relaxing and inviting. I should come back sometime.
I enjoyed the food and coffee. The coffee is great, sweet the way I like. I was also surprised for you guys to remember me when I came in on Tuesday morning. Overall highly recommended!
