Excellent food, hot drinks and friendly service. This place has so much potential, imagine red/white chequered tablecloths, flowers on the tables and some strung up bunting would be amazing. Just to reiterate- the food is excellent

Always has great food, great service and lovely to my dog as well (they give her treats haha). There’s a bathroom there too, and the coffee is nice and strong.

A gem of a place, super delicious coffee and incredible cakes and pastries, we wanted to try everything and got a few different bits but the caramel, pear and walnut tart was a definite stand out. We sat outside with Gus the dog and he very much enjoyed it and was very spoilt. Lovely owners and so welcoming and friendly. Thank you for having us, we will be back!

I absolutely love this café – it has such a warm, homey atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at ease. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming, which adds a personal touch to every visit. They serve the best black coffee I’ve ever had, and their desserts are simply delightful. This place is a hidden gem, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for quality, comfort, and a bit of peace in their day.

Delicious sweet apple tarte flambé. And very reasonable at $12, would easily pay another $3/4. The barista came out and offered me sun cream (good quality brand too!) as I sat under the tree on outside table, very gladly accepted her offer! We don’t live anywhere near here but would come out of my way to come back for the service!

Staff very friendly and efficient. The food was a real discovery. I had a delicious salmon tarte flambee, similar to a pizza, liberally covered with smoked salmon, cream cheese and spinach, magnifique! A big meal for only $13. The coffee was strong and hot, and the homemade patisseries are to die for. The café is small, with only two indoor tables, a bit shabby on the inside, and unattractive on the outside. But the food is great value and beautifully presented with a real French flair.
