I found the food expensive and the potato hash side I had tasted a bit funny in an off-putting way. The chai latte could have been bigger and been hotter.

Really nice food but service was a bit slow, which was ok considering it was Mother’s Day. I would have liked to be informed when I made the reservation that our booking has a limit of 1 hour, or, maybe let us know if the 1 hour limit when we were being seated. Didn’t appreciate being told after 1 hour “we need the table back”.

Bischoff latte was amazing and I don't like coffee! could have ordered another if they came around again. Same with the cheesy croquettes, that was really good!!

We had a brunch reservation for Mothers Day. It was very busy but the staff still attended to us promptly. They were always very friendly and helpful. The drinks took sometime to come out but meals were very quick to arrive. All the food was absolutely delicious and very reasonably priced for very generous serving sizes. We had such a lovely experience and would definitely recommend it to people in the area

We had a lovely breakfast here with amazing coffee & impeccable service! All the staff were happy & a joy to be around. The food was quick & delicious! It was sad to see a booking for a party of 4 who did a no-show, especially at times like now! So let’s all try to do the right thing by our amazing small businesses & show up when we make a booking, or cancel with plenty of notice. #getbehindsmallbusiness
