"Friendly staff, great location with shade and lots of parking. Bench seats for larger groups as well. I ordered the Cherry Tomatoes, cheese and chutney toastie and I was very satisfied. Buttery crunchy toast and the ingredients were fresh. The hot choccy was perfwct. Dog friendly. A real hidden gem."

"Lovely interlude, friendly for doggies, great coffee and very nice staff and clientele. I left my phone behind when I left and after realising and having a horrible 15 minutes, I arrived back to find it was there, safely in a drawer awaiting my return. Thank you everyone. The best experience at the end of a trying morning."

Families with kids. Average price $24. No change available so if you are paying by cash, bring the right amount."
