Feedback
The restaurant offers a delightful menu with a standout Egg Benedict dish. However, some customers experienced long waiting times and poor service, with one even walking out due to lack of attention. Despite some hiccups, the ambiance of the restaurant is praised, with high ceilings and large windows creating a bright and buzzing atmosphere. The food is described as modern and delicious, with high-quality coffee. Split bills were an issue for some, but overall, the restaurant is recommended for its great food selection and ambiance. Booking in advance is advised for busy times, but the venue is worth a visit for a beautiful setting and a nice meal.
Conveniently located just opposite southern cross station with a rustic yet aesthetic design. Great music and superb customer service from the staff very friendly and professional. Food were delicious but really huge portions so if you're a small eater, I'd suggest sharing. Didn't get to try the pastry this time round as we were too full from the mains but we'll be back. Coffee can't go wrong here, though personally would prefer for the latte to have slightly lesser milk but that's just personal preference. Overall, great spot for a nice meal and coffee and just chill.
Food: The menu offered a delightful variety of options, and the Egg Benedict was a standout with its unique presentation, featuring a pastry base and generous portions of
Good food selection and ambiance Service is relatively quick and friendly staff. My only issue was split bills. It should be an expected service to be able tap and pay your own. Other cafes and restaurants provide this easily
We were sat right near the open kitchen and watched the chef handle the food with his hands and cross-contaminate after we’d told the waitstaff that our friend had an anaphylaxis egg allergy. The staff handled it well after we raised the issue with them and cooked fresh food. However, just thankful that we were sitting at a table where we were able to witness the cross contamination, otherwise there could have been an anaphylactic reaction.
Normally a beautiful venue, the seats were dirty with very clear bird poo (and other stains, like food and beverage). It was visibly dirty in other seats as well, seems the place lacks love. Coffee nice, mushroom and truffle croissant was incredible. Ordered fruit toast which came out cold, despite it tasting nice. Scottish waiter was very friendly.
