Complimentary: Nothing.
We ordered:
Mocha - $3.5

Organic Grapefruit juice - $5
Toasted banana bread with maple syrup mascarpone, fresh banana, berry compote + crushed pistachio - $14.9
This was rather good. The banana bread was a touch crumbly but that didn't matter much as you just scoop it up along with the mascarpone and tart berry compote. It is overall, on the sweet side.
Bruschetta - white bean + roasted garlic puree, baked pumpkin, olive tapenade - $13,9
Mr.M thought this was OK.
Hopkins River Eye fillet steak sandwich, beetroot + blood orange relish, caramel onions, bacon, roast tomato, aged Maffra farmhouse cheddar + a poached googie egg - $21.9
S loved this. Well, loved is an understatement for S who enjoyed it so much that he wanted to go back every week just so he could eat it again. Full of complementing flavours and cooked well.
Cost: $65.20 for two coffees and three breakfasts.
Service: OK. Don't expect your water to be continuously topped up but the food comes out at a decent rate.
Atmosphere: A touch cramped. There are tons of chairs in front, inside and out the back. Mostly dark, neutral colours. The noise level gets quite loud.
Parking: Ample - large amount of street parking, not a super busy area.
