The place was very light and airy. We sat on the ground level, but there is also an indoor balcony area and a couple outdoor tables. I was very happy with the bloody Mary, got a good depth of flavor and a moderate spicy level. I LOVED the whipped avo. It was basically a deconstructed avocado toast. The avo was so light and fluffy and tangy, absolutely amazing on its own, but then to pair it with the feta, pickled rhubarb and the beautiful artisan toast - I ate every last crumb and wished there were more.

The place itself is very cute, albeit a little warm. There are two servers helping me; and the original server, femme presenting, was okay. they were a little rude and haven't checked in much/been overly kind. the male presenting server has checked in multiple times, refilled water, and been very very kind. All in all 4/5, for okay service, costly food and warm environment.

The breakfast choices are fantastic, and I particularly love the poached eggs. My favorite is the cold brew coffee. I don't understand why this coffee style hasn't become popular in Adelaide, as it's really tasty. The outdoor dining experience is certainly worth experiencing, especially in nice weather.

I did have a bit of brunch envy the other day with all the avocado and poached eggs being delivered to tables all around me... oh well, next time! The coffee is nice too, which makes my decision of coming back a no brainer. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the atmosphere. Definitely in need of some acoustic dampening. It was very noisy, and not very comfortable in the heat. But with the beach being right outside, if you can snag a spot outside, then you're bound to have a near perfect experience.

I think that a lot of people drive past on their way to wineries, but they should really stop for a coffee. It is just the cutest cottage. A few different rooms and you will find the café part in the middle room. What I really love about this place is all the little hidden room dining areas. There are range of take away options for lunch or dinner for the family. Some super tasty looking stews, pasta and salads. Wow! All decently priced and a great healthy alternative then going out for takeaway. I look forward to return to eat some lunch. On this visit my guest and I tried the Lemon Polenta and the Pecan cake. Both were very moist, full of flavour, and not too sweet. Which is perfect by my books. The coffee is a strong and robust. Lovely blend and great barista. You couldn't have asked for anything better on a cold rainy day! I think I might become a regular as a resident of the Hills! I am looking forward to warming up near their open fireplace.

As is often the case, I'm glad I was wrong. Little did I know a quirky little cafe is the perfect replacement for a redundant service station! So far I've only had coffee, but based on the experience of our group the overall customer experience is great! Our coffees (and one iced chocolate) came out really promptly and were top notch (and very affordable somehow). We opted to sit out the back, a great choice for a bright, warm hills Autumn morning. It feels like being out the back of my Nanna's house (retro table and all) only no one is yelling at me through the back window about the football scores.. which is good I guess, for a cafe anyway.

When you first enter you notice it is clean and reasonably quiet especially when taking into account its size. In addition there is adequate seating for a variety of group sizes and the tables do not feel cramped or crowded with unnecessary condiments or extraneous items. As you approach the ordering area you will be enticed to grab something sweet! I certainly was, but only with Herculean effort did I resist (this time). At this visit there was an orange polenta muffin prominently displayed at eye level and a raspberry brownie that called out to me from among the delicious and fresh looking selections... Looking over the menu there were a variety of selections to appeal to everyone, including veggos! I decided on a toastie with smoked salmon and scrambled egg. It had an attractive appearance and was, indeed, delicious if just a tad too salty. Though I didn't have coffee at this visit I will be back as I understand it is of the cold pressed variety!!
