Food was fantastic! So many yummy options on the menu. Definitely keen to come back and try more. We enjoyed the schnitzel benedict and the Canadian breakfast. Coffees were nice. Staff was very helpful. Couldn't believe how quiet it was on a Saturday morning so could be a bit of a hidden gem!

OMG, how did I not know this place existed! Spur of the moment, and we found a hidden gem. This was the best benny in ages. The eggs were just right. Try the chicken schnitzel benny it was brilliant. The service was exceptional and oat milk coffee the best we have tasted. All around, this place is an awesome stop.

The shop is very nice when walking in, customer service is amazing, very friendly. Ordered breakfast and after first few bites it was very good. Good if live local. Price was worth it as the food is amazing. Inside seating and also outside seating. I’m surprised how quiet it is for how good the food is.

So happy to find a new place for breakfast. Absolutely beautiful and delicious. The staff are amazing, soy latte is one of the best on GC. Normally I am not a big fan of sweet breakfast (Canadian BF) but it's like a party in my mouth Loved it! and I'm sure that if I try every each breakfast on the menu I won't be disappointed.
