Flat white was great! Also had a delicious sandwich 🥪. Place is also big enough to work if you need to for a bit.

Spacious & modern cafe. Super service & such lovely staff who are so kind. Americano was great & the chocolate chip pecan cookie was delicious ( but it's quite large for one person, so maybe share it lol) My only complaint is that there's no high chairs for a baby or small kid. - yes I bring my kid for coffee dates... he's cool 😎 & well behaved lol. Either way this visit made for a fantastic Saturday morning xo

Stopped by this place during my 3 night stay. The vibes were great (think study cafe with nice chatter in the background & warm vibes). The baked goods were also super super good, I could not stop ordering the choclate crossiants lol. Out of the 3 cafes I visited this was the best so take my review with a grain of salt.
