“Great little spot. As a coffee shop owner I love to seek out independents doing a great job. Fantastic service. Acknowledged straight away. Cool vibe. I had an iced matcha with oat/vanilla. Didn’t eat but the menu looked great.”

“Lovely place for a morning coffee and treat. Very friendly staff member, lovely coffee and delicious cookies made fresh that day (‘Healthier’ options available). - Definitely worth a visit to this independent coffee stop!”

“I’m so happy to have a great coffee place in my neighbourhood! ☕️ Perfect for grabbing a coffee to go when I’m passing by, or spending a lovely weekend moment here with a friend. The coffee is always delicious, and it’s such a pleasure to have a place like this so close to home. Highly recommend!”

“We visited here for the first time on Sunday for lunch. The sandwiches were delicious and the milkybar cookie I took home was the best cookie I have ever eaten. 10/10 for the coffee and mango smoothie from the specials board too! Service was great and we even had a quick game of chess, loved the relaxed atmosphere”
