★★★★★“Very friendly atmosphere and cases filled with delicious choices of menu items. I had the freshest made Ham and salad sandwich, which was filled very generously. The nicest, strong and hot cup of tea, served in a teapot and china cup. The one man serving, was friendly cool calm and collected in a busy little cafe. I would very much recommend popping in to this little gem.”

★★★★★“Frank is the best! He is such a lovely person and we locals live him. He not only serves the best coffee but his sandwiches are delicious! Have you tried his chicken schnitzel and salad sandwich? No? Well you are missing out big time!”
Alistair McLean
★★★★★“Best coffee in this part of Malvern East. The owner/operator knows his stuff and has been in business for 12 years. Spotlessly clean with a busy stream of local regular customers speaks volumes about the quality of food and the service. Early weekday opening hours also means early weekday closing hours so check before visiting.”
