👍👍 This place now opens Sunday!! Yum! It’s set nicely on a pedestrian walk, nature-strip screened from carpark; a beaut sun-trap for breakie. I went for the big veggie breakie today. Perfect poached eggs, 1/2 an avo! ++ Fresh OJ with that zing! I pinched my partner’s bacon, which was magic. Nice silky...

Perfect poached eggs, 1/2 an avo! ++ Fresh OJ with that zing! I pinched my partner’s bacon, which was magic. Nice silky & full flavoured coffee (with a mini muffin on the side (oh yeah!). Oh, and the staff?? Really friendly!

    The service I received today, was the best I've had in years. Cooper, his charm and charisma gripped me like nothing else. The man deserves a raise, actually even better entitlement to the cafe itself. We love you Cooper, and hope your service shines on forever.

    Always quite nice food and pretty good coffee. But i think its the customer service that sets them apart from all the other cafes in the area. Came in today and a nice young bloke named Cooper answered all of our annoying questions with a big smile, helped us out and made sure we had a great experience. Because of that i wont be going to any other cafes in this area! Thanks again mate!! 😁

    A Sunday brunch gem!!! Great atmosphere with plenty of space with no over crowding of tables. Warm and friendly staff were a delight and surprising customers with a free mini muffin with every coffee purchase. The staff were genuinely enjoying their work. The coffee was great and the food was lovely too. Not over priced with generous portions!! Definitely a worthwhile visit.

    The food was really delicious, best wedges I've had in ages plus we got breakfast roll and bacon and eggs. They used good quality ingredients. My husband said the coffee was excellent too.

    We popped in here for breakfast to see what they had to offer, and first impression was with the QR code to order food. We much prefer the human interaction of someone taking our order, but we followed the instructions and ordered online via the QR code. The online ordering was thorough, and it gives you options on how to customise your order (runny eggs, crispy bacon, etc). However it was a bit of a shock to see the high prices compared to other cafes. None the less, we ordered, and the service was extremely quick and friendly, and the quality of the food was excellent. So yes, you may pay a little bit more than other cheaper cafes around, but you'll receive excellent service, and top quality food. The only other observation was with the sound of the coffee machine. We sat near the front door, and that coffee machine is loud! So maybe consider sitting outside if the sound is too much for you.

    We ordered the veggie breakfast which was very delicious with generous portions. The food was freshly made. The coffee was made with excellence. The staff were very friendly, the cafe owner was very warm in making us and feel welcomed. I would definitely recommend this place to my family and friends for breakfast.

    Best cooked breakfast I've had in ages. Staff are pleasant and polite. It's definitely worth a visit even regardless of which suburb you live in.

    I used to really love this place and would have given 5 stars in the past. But the last few months the coffees have been below average and not very enjoyable, the coffee used to be amazing here. The service is still above and beyond and I enjoy the atmosphere and the food. Just gotta work on those coffees again guys!

    Was OK... food wasn't great, but also not bad, just middle of the road for me. Wouldn't rush back, I prefer some of the other eateries in mountain gate, but wanted to give it a go.

    Met some friends for brunch. The staff were very friendly, food was amazing(chilli scramble), coffee was perfect. Yes I loved it

  • 5/5 sarah v. 9 months ago on Google
    Hands down the best coffee. The staff are always incredibly friendly, the service is wonderful, nothing is ever too much to ask. Loving the new small bites menu! It has a great community feel and I love how the owner works alongside his staff and he's always so complimentary.

    Nice reasonably sized Cafe, and very busy. I ordered a Chicken Caesar Salad and coffee. The Caesar Salad was disappointing, as the chicken was very tough. Good sized serve, but only ate a small amount, as you can only eat so much lettuce Service was good. The double vaccination validation was no existent although I signed in and used sanitiser. But for a busy Cafe, I felt uncomfortable seeing customers walking in, not sanitising and some not signing in. Love a Cafe that serves Genovese coffee!
