The tables outside seemed to be busy so we opted for stools. Not as awkward as some stools thank goodness. We ordered the chocolate peanut butter cup smoothie. It was really thick but had a lovely flavour. I had the green felafel pita which was both filling and delicious. I liked the salad and felafel combination. My partner had the vegan carrot hot dog which he really enjoyed. We shared the baklava which was nice.

Will be back to try more on the menu. We enjoyed it so much we got a miso caramel malt smoothie to have for dessert which was also divine!

I asked if there was a surcharge for cards, as o had cash, and the young counterhand replied ‘no’. When I pointed out the surcharge deducted, she merely grinned and walked away no apology. After pointedly asking how much of a wait there was due to being in a hurry, tans they said 15 minutes I then had ti request takeaway as it took almost half an hour. The food? A spoonful each of iceberg and chopped cucumber in place of the numerous touted ‘salads’ and six miniature falafels drowned in tahini disgusting, and certainly not worth the price. The price? $18.50 for aforementioned half rate crap. Would never bother wasting my time, money or appetite on this shabby establishment again. Updated from previous review on 2023 03 19
