The wonderful owner is one of the most delightful people you could meet! I visited daily (while over from Sydney) for the delicious muesli and coffee and friendly service. 5 stars for the experience!

A lovely and relaxed place to enjoy a freshly made breakfast (or lunch). There's wooden tables, a home-like atmosphere and friendly service. The owner even gave me some cherry guavas from his garden when I was wondering about what was the fruit on my omelette. He said they're open till about 2.30pm on Saturdays, so a nice place to grab a lazy brunch.

Super friendly staff and delicious food. Burger was an absolute bargain, came with chips and an egg for less what a basic burger costs at most places. Highly recommend
