Awesome cafe. Great food and great service. What more do you want? Oh yeah, great seating too. They have these semi-private tables if you want a bit of privacy.

Wow amazing. Soooooo yummy. I had the machina big boy my husband had the creamy mushrooms. Loved every bit of it. The chutney stuff was so good and I don't even like chutney. We also got a Cronut to take away and this was phenomenal. I've had loads of muffins from here to and they are the yum home made tasting ones. Good value for money. Coffee always good and even when super busy doesn't take too long. Friendly chill atmosphere.

What a great family friendly cafe. I ordered the Eggs Benedict with Salmon. This has got to be the best place I have ever tried in the world. The coffee was Divine. The coffee beans that are used are of high quality and the team really looks after quality over anything else.

My friend and I came in with our big bagpacks on to get some breakfast, and the staff were so sweet to us. We got extra bacon and a little dessert from the chef, because she thought we needed it on our travels:) definitely worth every penny<3
