Stopped by for a Soy latte with honey on my way between Wollongong and Bookham late yesterday. Kind thoughtful service and a really great coffee that was not overpriced. Perfect temperature nice and hot without being too hot. Thank you

We ordered the bacon & egg roll and iced latte and they were both good. I love the chill atmosphere as well.

I tried the Sunday special Butter Chicken, and it was beautifully presented with a delicious taste. Having grown up eating butter chicken, I can confidently say it was spot on and even exceeded my expectations. The lovely service made the experience even better. Keep up the great work, team—Goulburn’s best cafe!

Gorgeous little Cafe that smashes out a lot of coffees and meals quite efficiently with friendly service . The servings are generous. The photo I've uploaded does not show that there are two slices of bread stacked on top of each other ! There are only 13 or 14 tables here and 3 staff and I'm sure sometimes they would be full. 10am on a Wednesday there were 4 to 7 tables in use and meals and coffee delivered within ten minutes . I think the play list is sine sort if emo 3asy listening with bands like Cigarettes After Sex and Antony and the Johnsons . There are some corner tables here that ate perfect for keeping yiur kids in your sight too.
