"The food, coffee and atmosphere are amazing. For a cafe that’s right on a busy road it’s very quiet and relaxed. Lots of different levels to sit. The alleyway leading out to the backyard seating is my favourite. Service was fast, staff are friendly and the food is unique and thoughtful. 10/10."

"I like this place. Breakfasts are awesome, service is great. I reckon its good value for money. Nice place. Pizza could have been a bit better but I'm sure if I asked them to crisp it up a bit they would have. Update to review.....:- Went back tonight and received the best pizza I've ever eaten. Hands down unbelievable. Thank you."
