"Mum and I stopped after my hospital visit. We were treated with warmth and the services provided was impeccable remarkably! The coffees /cappuccinos we had was well brewed to our likings. Attentiveness , willing to go the extra Milles and we will be back especially that we love just up the road! Very convenient especially for people who just wants to relaxed and have a good breakfast.
