Only come to this cafe if you want poor service and the wrong order. Friends and I checked out the cafe yesterday morning as we haven’t been back to the cafe since it used to be mossimo’s.

I cannot get over the decor, or the pottery mugs, or the earthy textures of clay and rust and wood that make this cafe so exceptional.
The real jewel is that they have not one but four coffee roasts to pick, which they roast fresh in house. Truly an espresso lovers paradise.
Note that even though the selection of coffee roasts contains the flavour profile, it doesn’t mention the beans’ origin. Not really a consideration for most cafe goers but...
