The food is good. The iced strawberry matcha latte is delicious, and the Angus beef burger is highly recommended. The salmon was a little dry but still tasty.

Such a hidden gem! Super chill vibe, friendly staff and great coffee. The food is incredible, especially the Turkish eggs, Burgers, Teriyaki Chicken Bowl and Orange and Almond pancakes. A must try is their pistachio latte - absolutely amazing!

Please ignore the whinging, whining reviews. If you smile, maybe you'll get a better reaction! Lovely Japanese staff. A truly superb, rich, and creamy latte was my treat. Then I grabbed a simple bacon and egg roll. Not simple - the best brioche bun, layers of bacon, and a delicious fresh range egg cooked to perfection. I sat in the sun enjoying it all. A real find from a random stop. Would definitely come again. Highly recommended.

A shining beacon of the Dutton Park community. Good coffee served especially the Pistachio Latte. Brunch has a mix of healthy, like Soba Noodles and Salmon Poke Bowls. However traditional dishes like the Angus Burger hunger buster is also served. Would return!

Café handily located along the Annerley Road bike lane. Some street parking nearby, though Annerley Road can be busy. Large indoor seating area or bench seating out front. Good service, nice coffee and snacks/ food. There is a nice vibe and music here. Good place to stop for a coffee break.

How is this cafe not more popular? Great brunch at reasonable prices. Doesn't exactly have atmosphere but it's quiet and spacious. Quick service too. Highly recommended!

Cool looking coffee shop is prime location to station, school and cyclists on river loop trail. Opens really early. Sadly, it's a bit tired inside and probably needs to focus on takeaway business as that's its bread and butter. Coffee was very good but not excellent. Feels like one dad left the building!

Great local coffee haunt in Dutton Park. Good breakfast and very tasty coffee. They make a great magic for the coffee snobs. Fast too. No outdoor seating, so unfortunately not dog friendly
