Has your pre or post shopping coffee date covered, casual work lunches and after school treats. Mostly easy meals eg melts, sandwiches, wraps, salads and burgers. Great prices too. I especially loved the coffee chart on the wall. I don't drink coffee and really have no clue what the different varieties are but this breaks it down for you. Very clever. The staff were friendly and took my mums business card to email her a quote for wraps for a meeting. Was told they can't cater for sandwiches due to the kitchen size but seemed happy with accommodating 15-20 for the wraps. We shall see.

My partner and I ended up here as we had been told a 45min wait for food at a cafe nearby after…read moreseating ourselves at an uncleared table. First glance had me thinking we'd be told the same at Table 1. It is at least twice the size as the previous cafe and I think we scored the last free table. I asked the waitress if there was a wait and was told no, food is coming out regularly. We were given water and a very extensive menu. After a quick look over we agreed on a 'no repeat order' policy when we return as so many things sounded great. The type you could start at the top and work your way through. After both ordering a burger we decided to stopwatch the wait for meals. We received ours after 18mins. May I repeat, the place was packed! My American and partners wagyu burgers were large and delicious. My partner isn't a fan of sweet potato but I loved the mixture of sweet to normal chips ratio that came as a side with ranch sauce. After watching my partner very messily cut his in half I decided on eating mine as they should be eaten. Whole and two hands required! I could not fault it. Cheese never stands out to me on a burger but the American cheddar was terrific. We couldn't help notice the quick turn over and teamwork shown to clear tables ready for more customers. We watched at least 4 and each was cleared, cleaned and reset within about 30 seconds. The price came to $58 for the 2 meals and 2 drinks. I very rarely tip and often feel a little offended at the expectation when I see that jar or tray sitting so obviously at the register. I left a tip here. I'll leave it at that.

The menu is tasteful and doesn't bombard you with too many options. My mum loved her chicken pot pie and was surprised to find a darker filling than the normal mornay appearance. Crispy skinned salmon is always a winner for me. I was a little disappointed that the asparagus mentioned was a small amount sliced into the lemon risotto. I was picturing full stems draped over the rice but that's just me. I love asparagus. The iced chocolate was almost a meal in itself. Beautifully presented and unashamedly topped with whipped cream. A few minor points were the small amount of car spaces, with plenty of cars parked roadside; and finding the cafe entrance. Maybe we missed it or perhaps it was located elsewhere pre COVID. As it stands we weaved our way through pots and plants until we saw it down the other end. Not that that will stop me from returning for a breakfast visit next time.

Going inside to order revealed a relaxed decor, fun wall display of hanging menus and a service counter filled on both sides with beautifully presented pastries. The display really caught my eye; very nicely done and I'm not sure how I contained the urge to order something from it. I was in the mood for a sandwich and my partner quickly pointed out the Qubano and I was sold. Essentially ham and cheese with flare, served with chips. It smelled a little odd, probably the mustard, but tasted wonderful. The chocolate thick shake I ordered was large but needed more chocolate with most of it drizzled along the inside of the cup rather than in the drink itself. I had to keep scraping the sides with my straw to amp up the flavour.
