I recently visited this coffee shop with a group of scientists and healthcare professionals, and while there were some great aspects to our experience, there’s room for improvement.
The environment was fantastic—relaxed and welcoming, perfect for thoughtful conversations. The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating, making us feel right at home. I started with a coffee, which was good, and later ordered a fruit juice. The juice was a highlight—tasty, healthy, and extremely fresh.
However, I was disappointed to find that none of the pastries were vegan. Every option contained eggs and milk, which is unnecessary in baking and supports industries that inherently involve animal exploitation. It's a fact that animals in dairy and egg industries are eventually killed, and male chicks and calves are typically slaughtered shortly after birth as they are deemed unprofitable. This was especially disheartening as my group shares a strong stance against such practices.

Fish tacos comes in threes and was fried to perfection. The chipotle slaw and tomato & coriander salsa were the perfect balance for the tacos. The pancakes were good, a little denser than other. When combining the mascarpone and rhubarb compote the flavours were perfectly balanced. Overall a great cafe for brekkie, brunch or lunch. Good strong coffee, delicious meals and beautiful venue.
