I'm so happy to have found this little treasure tucked away in a corner in Murrumbeena. The large windows offer plenty of light, which i really like. It's a nice cosy place to enjoy conversation with a cuppa! I ordered the beef and lamb sausage roll, which was quite tasty. It's wheelchair accessible and they hold baking classes for both kids and adults. The decor seemed to have added cosy and quirky vibe to the space.

We booked this cafe for a special event over the weekend and everything went smoothly. Good food and great service. The lemon curd tarts are my favourite! I saw that they have quite a range of sandwiches and pastries. If you're not a coffee person, have a hot chocolate like me!

Came here for coffee based on previous Google reviews and ended up staying for lunch. Attractive open air look and feel. Sit inside or outside. Interesting food selection. Had a vegetarian wrap. Just the right size and very enjoyable. Pleasant and quick service. Great coffee. Reasonable prices.

Great coffee!!! And the music is great and the service so nice! I will be definitely getting my morning coffee from here <3 I wish they had more brekkie options, but their sandwiches and gelato are worth the visit!

It was so refreshing to see a cafe charge less for black coffee. When speaking to the owner, she said “I don’t understand why everyone charges the same price for milk or water, water is free” The food is amazing also and the atmosphere, I highly recommend a visit. Fantastic long black with zero bitterness.
