What rebecca boomgaarden likes about 1908:
We stumbled across this lovely restaurant one evening while exploring the peninsula. The staff were great, very friendly. This beautiful restaurant has character and charm with a relaxed ambiance that even left the kids feeling at home. Pauline's lamb shank was divine, definitely worth trying! Thanks 1908 staff for a lovely evening and a delicious meal. View all feedback. What vicki doesn't like about 1908:

More of a nice restaurant with a quaint old feel than a cafe, in my opinion! Delicious food, and a wonderful date spot.
