    Returning customer & we enjoyed our first experience, lovely ambience & service. Today unfortunately disappointed by cold breakfast burgers, overcooked poached eggs & warm vanilla milkshakes. Food was sitting on counter waiting to be served & adding ice cream to milkshake would help. Thankfully coffee was hot.

    The salads were delicious, the prosecco cold and fresh, and the scones, jam and cream divine. The staff are friendly and really accommodating and we love the ambience. The place is a gem in the middle of Manly Vale and we go there regularly!

    It is always a pleasure dining here. The decor is stylish and atmosphere conducive to talking as well as eating; We recently brought visiting American friends and they loved it. We have also brought friends from the inner west of Sydney and they loved it too! The food was very good and the service was excellent. Thank you for what you do!

    We both had the crumbed calamari which came with a large amount of chips (which was not listed on the menu) and a relatively small serving of dry, overcooked crumbed calamari. The service was inattentive. The coffee was good.
