The atmosphere was so beautiful. I ordered a hot chocolate, a cappuccino and a chocolate croissant. The staff were so nice and the vibe was so calming even though it was busy.

Happened across this place following a dental visit in the area. We were seated promptly in the outdoor area however no one brought us menus after some time so we googled the menu online ourselves. When walking to the counter to order since no one had come to our table bumped into a waitress who then brought us menus and took our order. Wouldn't rate the iced matcha, as someone who drinks a lot of matcha the one here didn't have an authentic taste, could be the quality of the matcha they use. The food portions were very generous and we were happy with our meals - ordered the parma which was sizeable, and the breakfast of legends which again was very filling (not a fan of the bacom but that's a personal preference). We bought ice cream afterward too, would highly recommend the golden gaytime flavour, it was delish! Overall felt service could be improved and unfortunately there was someone smoking who ruined the atmosphere for us, but otherwise a nice find for good food.

We regularly come here for coffee which is pretty good the majority of the time! This was the first time I'd ordered food - which was the chicken tacos. Overall I'd say they were good, though could have been a bit more flavourful/spicy. They came out quickly and as always, service was good.

We ordered their wagyu burger and chili scrambled eggs - both were good.

Excellent food and the service was outstanding. We arrived at 9am, were greeted by the friendly staff and seated immediately. The coffee is outstanding and the Food amazing. This is a local gem for our area. I had the Taste of Beirut which was awesome. Bagels are excellent and burgers tasty. Highly recommend this place

Our local cafe, dinning for first time. Their coffee is always good and friendly staff around. The green bagel was tasty and they have many vegan /vegetarian options. Nutella French toast was yummy . Perfect price with portion. Will be trying more.
