This is such a pleasant cafe to visit. The scenery and staff were free flowing and very attentive. The burger buns were so soft and the filling was so well put together. The Acai Bowl and the salads were so fresh and generous in portions. Last but not least, the popcorn was so addictive! And they gave us free refills! Definitely will come here again if I’m ever in the area! Such an awesome vibe and range on the menu!

They advertise the best ever banana bread – and they’re absolutely right! Such a lovely little café with delicious bowls, great coffee, and a really cozy atmosphere. I highly recommend trying the banana bread as mentioned – definitely a 10/10!

This morning my partner and I had breakfast here for the first time. We ordered a breakfast burger and their daily special “fox in socks” (scrambled eggs with chili on sourdough) with two lattes. The atmosphere is just beautiful and you can see the food is freshly prepared using real whole food ingredients. I enjoyed the scrambled eggs very much - unlike many other cafes it was not a mixture but just using real eggs only! Unfortunately even though I love spices my meal was way too spicy that it overpowered everything else and you couldn’t taste anything else. The waitress serving us the coffee was a bit rude towards us. The coffee was served with a bite of brownie which was divine! So so good and I would love to try their banana bread next time.

This place was a very unique local spot. They have a store with goods made from locals and all of their foods are Australian sourced. The staff was very nice, and even rushed our order due to a boat appointment we had. I would recommend visiting.

Definitely Best breaky in town!! We've been going to this cozy little coffee shop for a while now, and it never fails to make our day better! The moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm smile and a sense of calm that sets the tone for a great day ahead. The decor is adorable, and the messages on the walls are just the right amount of inspiration to get you going. But it's not just the atmosphere that's amazing - the coffee is top-notch, and the food is delicious and healthy, with plenty of options for all dietary needs. I love that they're also committed to reducing waste and promoting sustainability, with all sorts of eco-friendly products on sale. The real stars of the show, though, are the staff. Andrew and his team are always on hand to chat, offer recommendations, and make sure you're feeling welcome. They're passionate about what they do, and it shows. If you're looking for a place to start your day off right, look no further. This coffee shop is a gem, and I'll be back again and again (and again!). Thanks for being such a wonderful spot - you're making a difference, one cup at a time! Camilla & Mirko
