Excellent coffee and bakery. So much to choose from. The chips were supplied to order and so hot and crispy with the delicious chicken pieces and not too salty. Well priced and popular. Thanks team.

The third time, I've been here, so I can finally give my thoughts and opinions. Every time, it has been a steady flow of customers and more of a meeting spot for many. Pricing was very affordable, and the service was second to none. Food was well cooked. So yes a well maintained and excellent service.
