There's such a friendly vibe in this Cafe and you can feel relaxed and looked after by the friendly staff. So nice to see so many age groups catered for. Will definitely be returning. Keep up the great work.

My soy hot chocolate arrived quickly and was very nice ... but it inexplicably took 25 minutes to microwave my pastryless keto friendly quiche... which was nice.... the capsicum relish didn't really work with it though. Just a bog standard tomato one would've sufficed. Less is more. Would quite like to go back for the all you can eat pancakes (Saturdays).

Located beautifully however a bit expensive comparatively. Best thing is that they've got kids play area within the premises so you don't need to be worried about the kids while enjoying the sitting there. Further the washroom there has also got all the necessities you may need to change the nappy of your kids which I never spotted anywhere else.

Coffee is average and overpriced however it does have a nice relaxed feel and the staff are friendly. Great for small children

They'll substitute gluten free gf bread in most of their things, making it a really easy place for a celiac. And the kids loved the bottomless pancakes on Saturday mornings

Great cafe that doubles as the community post shop. The cafe has great coffee and food, and while you wait, can watch the kids enjoy the play area with a wide array of toys. Fun for everyone, and the staff are helpful enough to help you out when you find that you need a second set of hands. Bathroom comes complete with a change table and sanitary pail for when your young child does number two while you wait for your coffee. Certainly parent friendly and a great place to meet up with friends with kids.

Not the best coffee but lovely spot for kiddies and babies to roam and explore the little playground, a great set up for them.

Coffee is overpriced for what it is. They mention how great the coffee is however I'm well travelled and I would rate the coffee as average. I've mentioned this to them twice and even with management with little or no response. Overall the food and service is good and it's a local small place so you need to take this into consideration and not have unrealistic expectations. Maybe I do have unrealistic expectations however I believe $7 plus for a large coffee is overpriced.
