'Everything on the plate was of excellent quality and cooked perfectly. As an all-day breakfast café, the food was far beyond your normal "caff" quality. The interior was warm and inviting with just a hint of nostalgia – the staff were attentive and knowledgeable about what was on our plate. It’s true that the scrambled eggs are sublime.' S Kyne
