When I began to ask where it was (as I was in a hurry and thought a sandwich wouldn't take long), she cut me off and said "it's coming, take a seat".

We were starving for late brunch, I've passed this place a million and one times and something compelled me to u-turn and after checking the menu online, saw dill potato cakes and walked in. So glad we did. They weren't on the Saturday brunch menu however the owner happily made them for me no worries- that was so nice. The dill potato cakes came with salmon, poaches eggs and sour cream. I ordered a side of hollandaise and mushrooms. It was so delicious!! House made hollandaise- everything was so good. The potato cakes weren't overly dilly and a great alternative to bread, eggs well poached and the sour cream was a good side. Partner loved his eggs benny which came on Turkish. Coffee was merlo and pretty decently made. I had a Noah's juice. Can't wait to come back for their cocktails- all $10!

The food was good, but not remarkable and I thought my caesar salad (cos lettuce and toasted Turkish bread, topped with one rasher of bacon and poached egg) was a little bit overpriced at $17.

The food is nothing to rave about but the setting is unusual and provincial. Make up your own mind.

My only problem is that it was too sweet, I couldn't barely finish half of it. Disregarding its sweetness I would rate it a 4 but for my preferences it scores a 3 out of 5.<br/ <br/ The carrot cake was a bit on the dry side, and the frosting on top was a bit too thick in some places but overall was an enjoyable cake, had it been moister and with some more nuts to it i would have scored it a 4 out of 5, but today it gets a 3.5.<br/ <br/ Overall it's a nice place for a coffee, the staff is friendly and I would be back to try their lunch menu perhaps.
