Great flavours served with some quality food, with the low amount of customers your order is prepare promptly. I enjoyed the creativity of the meal and sitting outside.

We came for a nice breakfast and really liked all the gluten-free and dairy-free options. Service was friendly and quick and after brekkie we got a smoothie and a couple of bakes for our drive. The gf bread wasn’t awesome, but we‘re always happy to find one anyway, so all in all a great spot to come back to.

We ,just, had coffee here but service was outstanding, the marshmallow-size for the babychino insane and the coffee yummy (enough reason for me to give 5 stars:)

Amazing coffee and acai bowl!! Cafe serving healthy options!! Salads (in takeaway containers) were pre-made but fresh (salad dressing was a little tart for my taste). Friendly service!

Friendly staff were warm and welcoming. They were accommodating of our off menu order and very helpful. The atmosphere is relaxed and clean. Was a little hard to find from street signage

My breaky hotspot while working in Rockhampton. Each day I work in town I try something new off the menu. Would highly recommend. It’s great to go to a cafe and get something different then the boring bacon and eggs. The all day breakfast is where it’s at.
