    Good food and despite being a large cafe, wait times are reasonable. Reasonably priced too.

    Excellent coffee place. It's open when the others are shut, especially holidays. Has an outside part for the early cyclists.

    Just be sure to reserve a table first :) Please be aware that it is a loud place because it is popular, so if you hate loud don't go!

    This little place does a good coffee and sit down snack foods…read more But it's wow for me was their cakes. I ordered one from here when I turned 40 and would do it again in a heart beat. I needed a cake for 200 and they obliged quite easily and with friendly service. The cake was a chocolate caramel mud cake with a chocolate fudge icing. What my guests didn't eat I kept in the freezer and ate for the next few months. Yes.. it was just that awesome. :)

    First impression had me thinking I'd picked a dud. Not much to look at as far as cafes are…read moreconcerned, although they do have inside seating. The open prep area gives off a tradies haunt kind of vibe but they usually spot good food if not great presentation. Gave it a shot as they also had cakes on display which I was needing to get for a family dinner that night. I picked the chocolate cake to take away, BLT wrap with chicken for my partner, chicken and Camembert wrap for me, a coke and an iced chocolate. I'm used to iced chocolates being generously topped with whipped cream but this one had none so that was a bit sad. I was drawn to my wrap as Christmas isn't far away and I instantly connected the delicious duo of Camembert and cranberry. Oddly it was put together with a Mexican theme instead with sweet chilli, avocado and sour cream. It was delicious and not a let down without the cranberry sauce. Both wraps were massive and well filled. My partner especially enjoyed the bacon, tomato and mayo flavour combo. There was a lunch deal of a pie and coke for $6 and definitely bring along your entertainment voucher. The cake itself was just over $41 but with the discount I got it and all our lunch order for only $51. The size of the wraps are definitely what sealed it for me though. I love big portions!
