Now, I do not work in a Coffee shop for a living however I do know what a flat white is because I make them every day in my kitchen. I simply asked for 2 flat whites, full cream milk, one shot, one and a half sugars in each, and NO froth which I repeated because, as I said, it's a flat white. I have noticed that what used to be a large cup has been slimmed down a size, no doubt for extra profit, and they have now added another size which will cost you $8.50. So, I go back to the car and remove the lids of my two flat whites because I was going to pour them into my Thermos flask for the trip back to Cooktown. Both coffees had that much froth they looked like they were cappuccinos. What the...... So I went back and said very respectfully, I specifically asked for NO froth, may I have two coffees please with no froth. I was provided with two more coffees, and yes, with froth though not as much the second time.

I can buy the same flat white in a Coffee shop in Smithfield for $3 if it is before 9am. The same coffee goes up to $6.50 after...
Read moreI needed a break from being stuck in the house with an injured shoulder and decided to come and try out this cafe. It was a lovely and warm experience and not just the beautiful interior with the fairy lights and comfortable and cosy furniture. It was the warm and genuine greetings and hospitality from the people who run it. The recommendation from Hayley of a mince and cheese jaffle for breakfast was spot on and she made my coffee to my specifications. It came hot and strong. A wonderful brew. To top it off, I had a coughing fit and she came over with a glass of water for me which was much appreciated. I didn't have to ask for it and it came with genuine concern. I will be making this my regular place to escape being stuck in the house and to take my friends. The food was good and reasonably priced. The atmosphere was...
