We came here because we had a long day of shopping ahead and needed to line our stomachs.
Parking was easy although finding the cafe was a challenge for three hungry girls from outside the area.
We walked in and immediately thought it was worth taking a few minutes to find. Smart decor and a good-looking menu suggested this would be a slick operation.
We ordered crepes with stewed fruit ($15.50), sauteed mushrooms with feta on toast ($14.50) and eggs on toast with avocado ($13.50). Everything was tasty and the crepes were particularly good.
The most unusual thing on the menu was probably the mushrooms, which were not in the usual creamy sauce. Just a pile of delicious fungi on toast.
The service was friendly and helpful.
The coffee was perfect.
We recommend if you come here you sit in the cosy back room, as we did as soon as a table was free. The front tables near the counter were freezing on a chilly morning - even after we'd returned to the car for jackets - and we couldn't see a heater.
Overall we thought delicious food and great service.
