Nice cafe with good coffee, great place to chill and people-watch. I had a couple of coffees and a smashed avo - the food was prepared with care and integrity, but little details could be improved upon: the smashed avo was a bit too runny, the bread sliced a tad too thin (turns soggy rather quickly), and the eggs were poached a tad too long. If I were to guess, I’d think that the cooks were preparing the food by instruction and not experience.
I am definitely nitpicking, but since the manager of this joint seems to read these comments, I thought it might be helpful to provide some feedback.
The service here, on the other hand, was perfect - Sintya was the hostess on that day, and she was exceptionally warm and helpful. She looked after my belongings as I went to the washroom, we had little chats about our lives etc. She has a knack of making her guests feel comfortable. Keep up the good work, and thank you for your hospitality.
Overall, lovely cafe for homesick Australians - I will be back whenever I am in the area.
I tried most dishes on their menu while staying at the Anantara next door. They have a different menu for hotel guests, so I can only speak to that menu. But over 5 breakfasts I can say that the food is really good. Especially their nasi goreng. Yes, you can get it anywhere but theirs was particularly delicious. Indonesian dishes were very good. Pancakes with Nutella were better than the banana pancakes. Vegan breakfast was varied, healthy and better than expected. Big breakfast with eggs, bacon, sausage was well cooked. Balinese eggs Benedict was a great idea and well made, just needed some more spicy sauce which they supplied. The staff was very friendly, also with my baby. They didn’t mind that we had some health-related dietary requirements.
Make sure to ask which fruit juices are fresh that day. And the flat white is not so strong. Still good!
Diah was our amazing host and was so wonderful and accommodating, she looked after us so well and made sure we had everything we needed and always willing to chat with us. All the staff were lovely and so friendly. The local food was delicious we wish there was more local options, there was plenty of variety on the menu, everything we had was tasty (except the margarita pizza I wouldn’t recommend) but the carbonara pasta and steak sandwich was great. Service was fast and friendly. Cocktails and wine were very good. Great place for breakie. Drinks were well priced (because the aud exchange rate is very good). Overall amazing service would highly recommend especially if staying at the Anantara hotel (which we did)
