A nice little bistro with a clean and cozy atmosphere. The service was great, and the breakfast and coffee were delicious. Nothing too fancy, just simple homemade style food done really well. The prices were fair, and the service was quick. The restroom was very clean too.

Tasty foodCoffeeCleanAtmosphereBreakfastFriendly staff
Food was amazing and there’s many options, choices of coffee with double espresso shots! Really lovely building inside also, with a spacious outdoor seating area. Prices are very fair too 😊
I stopped by for a quick breakfast and had the sausages, beans, bacon, a couple of slices of toast, and a flat white. The food was delicious, and the entire experience was enjoyable. The staff were friendly, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere made it even better. All in all, a fantastic start to the day!
