Amazing food, brilliant coffee. We had the triple chilli omelette with rice and a haloumi burger. Very generous portions and lovely setting for a neighbourhood cafe. The pastries are delicious too

Dropped in on a rainy day while working on the road (NRMA), ordered the Chilly Churizo and scrambled egg on sour dough, was absolutely amazing! Presentation was great and tasted delicious! Will definitely be coming back again!

A real gem of a cafe in Gymea, away from the hustle of the main shopping centre tucked away on the residential side. Awesome coffee and food and lots of seating options, in the backyard, out the front, inside near the coffee machine or a room towards the back.

I like to shop around. I like cafes a little but of centre. This fills the bill. And next door to add to your visit is a unique Wine+ venue. Do drop Inn to both
