Probably the best cafe in Timaru.
Pleasant cafe decor with a relaxed environment. Coffee quality is variable (operator dependent) but generally good, sometimes very good.
Food is decent, fairly pricey for what it is but not hugely more than what you pay at many cafés. The eggs Benedict is reasonable. Eggs poached ok though often a pale small yolk (not sure where they source them, I don't think they are free range), served on an English muffin with some very tasty ham. The hollandaise sauce is thick and creamy but tastes fairly generic. I have had the full breakfast twice and it was quite different in volume and quality each time. Generally a good basic breakfast with all the bits and pieces and cooked just fine. Nothing special though and at $19 not the best deal either. I would say that the cabinet food does look pretty good so there is plenty more for me to try out!
Despite the only average to good food, I would still recommend this cafe. Decent/good coffee, decent food and pleasant atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit. read more
