Great little cafe, hidden away in Heathcote. Excellent cabinet food and menu. Prices great value. Today I had the Friday special toasted sandwich and fries, value at $12. The omelettes are amazing.
Julienne Hutt, 2 months agoAmazing food at a fair price. The meals were not small and definitely filled you up. I got the fried chicken and sweet chilli waffles, nothing to complain about at all, they really hit the spot 👌. Other pictured meals are the Angus beef burger (with added bacon), the Castle Rock salad, and the big breakfast. Very tasty meals, 5 stars for sure.
Michael, 3 years agoWe really enjoyed our brunch meals here which was a first table booking. Yummy eggs bene and had great coffee too! Would highly recommend.
