Lovely cosy outdoor spaces, lovely friendly service , great looking counter food but mostly we stop on our morning walks for the coffee - excellent cappuccino and long black. 28/3 back again with my sis and Dad who stop here almost daily. It's her birthday, they bought this out and sang happy birthday 🎉

Very nice staff and atmosphere. I had the Stir-fry with cashew and it was amazing. Their mango smoothie is definitely the best smoothie I've ever had.

Best curry I've had since being in Asia! Cute spot with a little garden and artwork on the walls. Customer service is great too!
