Nestled within the impressive Holburne Museum, this modern café offers a picturesque setting overlooking the tranquil Sydney Gardens. While the atmosphere is inviting and the service friendly, experiences can vary greatly. Some guests relish the fresh, well-prepared dishes like roasted tomato soup and salads, while others find the food, such as quiche and carrot cake, lacking in flavor and presentation. Slow service has been a recurring concern, especially during busy times. Despite these inconsistencies, the café remains a potential stop for a light lunch or coffee after exploring the museum, albeit with varying recommendations based on individual experiences.
