The coffee was the best that we had in the region, and it was pleasing to see a large number of locals calling in for morning caffeine hit.I have no hesitation in recommending this location for breakfast or a high quality morning tea.

As it was cold wifey ordered the soup of the day, Pumpkin, but alas was like a watered down tin version, not the home made blackboard as indicated.Oh coffee was lukewarm also. Having said, the sanger is what I wanted, but was a little disappointed in what I received, wouldn't be hard to make a 5 star place by just a little more effort.

The reply was quick, "in here, I own it! No fish and chips or burgers, just good food." May not suit some but we were happy to try it. No complaints, adequate range of sandwiches, wraps, and other lunch options, plus sweet offerings. We opted for frittata with salad and a couple of sandwiches along with tea. Quite sufficient for us, food tasty, prompt, pleasant service and bill very pleasing. All we needed when travelling.There is a sign near the register: "We don't serve fast food. We serve good food, as fast as we possibly can!" Reflected in our visit.

The staff, especially the ladies, are doing a great job. We ordered eggs Benedict with salmon and another order with ham and extra mushrooms. The portions were perfect and the hollandaise sauce was delicious. The caramel lattes were creamy and made with fresh beans. We rate this restaurant a high 4 stars and enjoyed our brunch. We wish the staff continued success and good health. Keep up the great work! Love, the couple from New Zealand and Switzerland.
