I have been to this cafe a few times, and the staff are all so friendly and helpful. Food is always good quality.
They also catered for an event at our home, and I cannot recommend them enough. The platter was delicious and so well presented. All food was of a high quality.
The manager and staff were very pleasant and easy to deal with. Will definitely use this business again.

Very good sandwiches but there isn't much else on the menu, prices are ok. Parking is terrible and other guests treat and have 0 consideration towards each other. The actual staff tho is very nice. Cakes look great.
