Most Disliked
Some patrons have noted that the busiest times can lead to crowded mornings, especially on Saturdays. If you prefer a quieter atmosphere, those peak hours might be a challenge. A few reviewers have mentioned the portion sizes as being too generous, which can overshadow the experience for light eaters. While the cafe does offer a diverse menu, there are limited vegetarian options, which could be a drawback for those following specific dietary preferences. Additionally, parking around Havelock Street can be tricky during peak hours, which might frustrate some diners. Despite these minor concerns, the overall dining experience is largely positive.

Excellent. Food was perfect - delicious. Portion size was spot on. The staff were lovely. One member of staff gave me some scissors to open my sauce sachet because she said it might be difficult to tear open! I was looked after very well.
