“ This hidden gem on Australia street never disappoints. This breakfast/lunch cafe has such a flavourful menu, the serving sizes are generous with most having a bit of southeast Asian flavours. If you feel indulgent add the satay fries to your order, they won’t disappoint. ”

“ amazing spot for brunch! the atmosphere here is very cosy and homey, and the interior of the back area is incredible - ample ligt and quiet away from the Newtown buzz. the bowl i had was delicious, lots of fruit wonderfully balanced with passion fruit sauce, yogurt and nutty granola. matched wonderfuly with iced long black. the people working here were attentive and kind, i would definitely recommend stopping by! ”
“ Was looking for a coffee shop with a nice Acai Bowl and found this coffee shop that not only provided a great acai bowl but amazing coffee and other breakfast options. But the service was amazing, and if I could give 6 stars out of 5, I would. I cannot remember the lady's name who served us, but she made the whole experience so enjoyable. ”
