Great business model: healthy, fresh, quick lunches (sandwiches and wraps etc) paired with great tasting coffee, in and out with a daily strong flow of locals and friendly service.

My partner and I had breaky burgers which were very good. The bread was nice and soft, the eggs not overcooked and the bacon was very nice. I also grabbed a coffee and apple roll. The coffee was very nice and the apple roll was not too sweet. Staff were welcoming and polite. They were very nice when I came back to get a little splash of cold milk cause I burnt my tongue (not the cafe's fault, just cant handle hot drinks) Good selection of lunch items and drink.
