Reviews
This place is the business. The coffee is great, the food is fantastic, and the service is awesome. My partner and I went there for a somewhat hungover breakfast and were really wowed by the place.I got the corn fritters with bacon, and a flat white to wash it down. The dish came with sour cream and a salad on the side to cap it off. The fritters were deliciously fresh, thick but not too doughy like at some places, and with the right balance of corn to flour in the mixture. Add to that the sweet chilli sauce and sour cream and it’s tastebud heaven. On the other side of the table, my partner ordered the chicken wrap and an orange juice. The wrap also came with a salad, an appreciated recurring theme there. With nice sized pieces of Moroccan spiced chicken and other yummy stuff encompassed in a fresh tortilla style wrap, this is one tasty dish.
