I had the Apple crumble waffle with a side of bacon. Massive serving and every bite was a delicious taste sensation. I can't even describe the beautiful flavours of the Apple crumble. Perfectly cooked apples with the most decadent crumble and a dash of maple syrup and yummy scoop of ice cream. It was so filling I left 1/4 of the waffle so it is well worth the price. Daughter had the Ginger and Lime breakfast, eggs your way on four dough with your choice of three sides and said it was amazing.

Cafe Mila is a new cafe in the Redlands in the Horizons shopping complex. They opened in June, 2011…read morebut it took me awhile to try them out. I work in the area and there are quite a few coffee shops along the strip. Eventually, I thought I should give them a go and I am pleased to say that I really enjoyed the coffee and the place. They have a warm, vibrant atmosphere and mixed with the relaxed feel all the Redlands seems to have, it is a good combination. I really enjoyed my homemade muffin and cappuccino combo. They also have a really good variety on the menu including baguettes and sandwiches plus I was really temped by their breakfast menu... must come back for breakfast one day soon. They are a little far, I can walk to at least 3 coffee places from where I work and unfortunately I would have to drive to get to Mila. No problem, possibly they might just become my weekend cafe of choice instead.

I asked if they could make it for me: pancakes (or waffles are a good enough alternative) with bacon and poached eggs with maple syrup. Realizing my origin, the staff went and bought some real maple syrup from the nearby shop instead of using the standard maple flavored syrup. A++ on customer service and going the extra mile for a good meal.

This cafe was a bit of a surprise, hidden away on a predominantly residential street. I strolled in…read morelooking for a drink to cure my three thirty-itis and came across customers relaxing in the quiet, tree surrounded courtyard enjoying an afternoon cup of coffee. Inside, the warm lighting highlights the extensive chalkboard menu above the counter. The inviting cake cabinet beckons as you stand there wondering what to order. Since I was full from lunch I was a little boring and decided to settle with a cold drink from their refrigerator. My Spring Valley juice doesn't give me much to say in way of recommendation of this place, but I really enjoyed the setting. It is a little place beside not much else but the road, so the view is not spectacular, but the trees make the courtyard feel somewhat enclosed and it is still a quiet, relaxing place. I have checked out some other reviews which were all very flattering, raving about the food, so I have made a mental note to return and see what all the fuss is about. The kitchen closes about an hour before closing time.

Would do well to purchase a milk thermometer along with some coffee training for staff. Nice looking cake fridge with a good variety of slices and general 'sweet things'. Nothing really 'bad' just nothing special. Pleasant location away from the local bustle. I'm not a local, but I think you could do better.

Located in the heart of the town centre, Rafferty's is an oasis in Cleveland's commercial district…read more Cane armchairs and tables spill out onto the foot path, and palm trees signal the entrance into the restaurant. There are pictures of citrus everywhere, which adds to the idea of an 'oasis' (on my tropical island, there would be citrus trees, fo' sho'.) Everywhere you go in Cleveland, it seems that being able to order a caesar salad with chicken ($15.90 here) is still big news. Skip this, and go for a seriously old school food bar treat: the steak burger. They take a more sophisticated approach to an olden goldie, but still keep in the classic details. It's made with a rib eye fillet steak, tomato, lettuce, EGG, BEETROOT, and tomato sauce ($12.90 with chips). The only thing that's missing is pineapple! I nearly died from happiness while I inspected my burger for all of the promised ingredients. The coffee is quite nice too. There's no table service, you have to go up to the counter and ask for what you want. You take a number and sit down and wait while your food is made. All in all, I quite like Rafferty's. I was more than happy to have to lean over my plate while I ate my burger because it was so juicy. I wiped the juice off my chin when I was done, but the grin still remained. That was the best burger I've had in a long time.
