Today was my first day coming to the cafe and the owners are lovely. They made me feel welcome and included because they took the time to have a chat. I went early so it wasn't busy, and it was the best place to have a catch up with my friend. The food is amazing, and there is a ton on the menu. I look forward to going there again.
