Had a lovely round table, ordered the vegi breakfast which is very generous - 2 eggs ( which were perfectly cooked ) spinach steamed, feta with chilli - yummy, mushroom, beans, avocado smash - beautifully seasoned, potato patty in bread crumbs and sour dough toast - all of it delicious and filling. All washed down with fresh orange juice and delicious coffee. It’s fresh, tasty and filling. The staff are so lovely - attentive without hovering, nothing is to much trouble! Great value for money - the whole experience was a joy.

We dined here for Christmas Day dinner and had such a lovely time! We made advance reservation and were seated immediately upon arrival and greeted with our welcome drink of choice. While they were extremely busy and crowded, our server was extremely attentive and the music playlist was on point. The whole staff was so friendly and welcoming and we enjoyed the food and overall experience very much!

Tasty food, good prices, nice atmosphere. We went for a Sunday roast with my family and sat at the upper floor which was more quiet. The service was great and the food and wine was very nice.
