"Staff always so prompt and friendly. The interactions between them are also so warming to watch- kind, jovial and respectful. Love that they open at 6am. Perfect soy flat white every time! Indoor seats available for chilly mornings. Get the cardamom buns!!"

"Excellent coffee at an affordable price! Cozy little shop in a centralised location, offers a beautiful view for a morning coffee-break. P.S: Very busy during morning peak hours, so expect a bit of a wait."
