Cute and cosy family run Cafe with the warm personality and service to match. Ordered a magic and the Sheepish (warm) Salad (lamb based) – $38 with added poached egg and pumpkin but will defs return again for this. Fresh and quality ingredients are used! Limited seating inside (about 12 spots in the front end, more in the back) so get in when not too busy. They also have outside seating but it was too cold/windy today for that. Apparently they don’t take bookings but accommodate as best as they can.

Definitely worth the visit if you’re in the area! So many delicious gluten free options. I opted for the Arabesque without spinach and added avocado. It was delicious! The balance of flavours, the crunchy home made gluten free bread and the perfectly poached eggs! I purchased a gluten free loaf to take home. The environment has a community feel, staff are lovely and very attentive. Will definitely come back when I am in the area again! Thank you

Great little cafe! On holiday from South Australia seeing family. Stopped here and really enjoyed the cappuccino I had. Cute and homey interior with a cute back area. The people here were super friendly but also really professional. Great spot!

Really great food and service here. Well worth the drive out here. My partner commented on how happy I was with my food. The taste was pretty amazing. Coffee is perfect.

Just meh.. we paid $30 dollars for a breakfast bowl with avo, cornbread, eggs, hot sauce and feta.. just lacked flavour and finesse. Got the oat hot chocolate which was chocolate coloured but tasted just of oat. Avocado and corn salsa has an overpowering citrus (lemon) flavour and everything else was just so so. Croissant wasn’t to bad but $12 for ham a cheese for it to be just ok doesn’t really make sense. Was hoping for so much bud in the end was disappointed.

Great little cafe in Emerald. We’ve always had great food here, the iced mocha is sensational (best around – house made chocolate syrup, and premium ice-cream). The staff are super friendly and clearly love working here, and it shows in the end product!
