We visited on a Friday morning, before the rush, and were quickly seated in the courtyard out back. The back area has a relaxed and peaceful vibe.
Our group included myself, hubby and our 3 year old daughter. The atmosphere was inviting, warm and very family friendly. The service was fast and welcoming. Though dining as a family it was an environment equally suited to a brunch with the girls, date or casual business meeting.
The menu is full of your usual brunch items with creative and delicious twists.
Their take on chicken and waffles was AMAZING. Every element perfectly complimented each other. The waffle was dense but filling and tasty, the coleslaw light and fresh and the popcorn chicken seasoned and cooked to perfection. A+ in terms of originality and deliciousness.
My husband went with the B Man's Brekkie - think upmarket big brekkie but with a wonderful kick it flavour. Highlight of the plate was the corn fritter - if hungry this plate is for you but if not the fritters alone with sate your hunger.
If you're a coffee snob you won't be disappointed. Our cappuccinos were faultless. I also loved the Vietnamese cold brew - it gave me a nice taste of nostalgia. Perfect for those missing shores abroad.
Overall a tasty and fun meal served in a casual and friendly environment. I'd recommend Mr Benedict to any and all.
