Upon arrival, you will realise just how popular this place really is. It's not easy finding a car park, but sometimes you do get lucky (we did). It was on our second visit that I decided to indulge in a Large Iced Coffee and some Salad. We also ordered A Doughnut, and a lovely Pastrami Sandwich.
The coffee was perfect, not too strong but with just enough kick so that it doesn't disappear in the milk and ice. And thats also another nice thing... the fact that it tastes perfect, without the extra ice-cream and sugar (don't get me wrong i love a scoop of ice-ceram and a dash of vanilla extract just as much, but it is a nice change).
The salads, of which i tried two, were also rather tasty. I am rather fond of most things Roasted Pumpkin and Spinach related, and it is one of those salads that is becoming readily available, but this one THIS exact one was... I'm pretty sure one of the best i've had so far.
I say this because, not only could you taste the lovely roasted-ness of the pumpkin but you could actually see the rosemary on the pumpkin... and for some reason it makes me feel so much better...like it really really did get roasted the way someone who loves roasting would roast pumpkin... DID I SAY ROAST ENOUGH??!? The rest of the salad was also exemplary.
The place itself has a wonderful atmosphere, you instantly feel welcomed, as if to a friends house, where you can, if you so desire, spend hours just relaxing and taking it all in. Possibly undertaking some PeopleWatching. I think it has something to do with the salvaged wooden furniture and the native flowers (inside).
Also the Doughnut was Delicious...Fluffy and mmmmm give me more. Oh but be warned, the salad, sandwich, doughnut and two iced coffees did set us back $35. Soooo, it's not cheap. But worth it if you're after something to treat yourself with.
Get in early if you want one of their rather popular cruffins or doughnuts.
