So unassuming from the street! We popped in for brekkie and loved our meal. The atmosphere was great and the staff were really friendly. Best brekkie roll I've had a in while.

Cannot recommend this gem enough! We had the Spanish omelette and the veggie toast and they were out of this world!!! Lots of extra touches like a salad on side of breakfast. Staff were amazing -super friendly and attentive. Decor is thoughtfully curated and feels cosy and welcoming. I’m from Melbourne and looking for any opportunity to come back to eat!

Very nice place! I stopped by for lunch after several walks in the Blue Mountains and I was really satisfied. The staff was friendly and the service was quick — it probably wasn’t peak hour since there weren’t many people inside. I definitely recommend stopping by!

This is a nice little restaurant we visited on our way back from the Blue Mountains. The food was very good, and we really liked their tea. What we didn’t like was the wait time. We had to wait for more than 30 minutes to receive our first dish, and even after that, there were more delays before the rest of the dishes arrived. It was quite disappointing and definitely something the restaurant could look at improving. Other than that, it’s a nice place to try out if you are visiting the Blue Mountains.

Surprised to find this Filipino run cafe in the mountains - delicious sizzling pork sisig & beef burger. Perfect on a rainy mountain day. Great spot, laid back vibe, pleasant and efficient service.

We were a group of three and got brunch here. I got the crab omelette and the others got the nachos. Coffees were good, the nachos were ok. A different take on Nachos but not amazing. The omelette was quite tasty. Atmosphere nice and chill. Areas for improvement: There needs to be more than one fly zapper. Flies constantly landing everywhere bothering guests. I was charged extra for some extra chili sauce for the omelette. That was a little unnecessary and left a bad impression. It costs nothing to provide a Ramon in of sauce.
