Found this cafe while in the area and was not disappointed. Staff were so kind and accommodating, and the food/coffee were so good. I ordered the Prawn Nori Tacos (pictured) the seaweed shell, the coleslaw and the tempura prawn were such a fantastic combination. Was not expecting two big tacos to come out so I was very full! Staff kindly offered me a takeaway box for the second one I wasn’t able to finish. Coffee wise also very satisfied. Had an oat mocha. Pricey like all coffee nowadays especially with a different type of milk, but it was good not too chocolatey that I couldn’t taste the coffee. I will be back for sure to try their sandwiches, and their pastries in the window!

A local cafe that serves amazing Japanese inspired dishes! Lots of carbs, cute interior and amazing coffee! I absolutely loved the cream udon carbonara. It was perfectly balanced and tasted phenomenal. The curry omelette rice was creamy, light and sooo flavourful. The omelette was made perfectly! The prawn nori taco looked amazing, but it was a struggle to eat. Don’t get me wrong, it tasted great. But the slaw mix and lemon dressing made the bottom of the nori taco really soggy. We couldn’t really eat the bottom portion because of it. I love this place but it gets super busy! Highly recommend booking in advance or going in early if you want a table.

We came here as it was promised on an app. Unfortunately, our experience was not the same as the post that attracted us here. The fried chicken and fries was a let down. There were very few pieces of chicken in the top and the chips wasn’t that crunchy. Understandably, the item was from the kids menu but it shouldn’t make a difference. Our other dish with chicken Katsu (curry omelette rice) was much better. We were also not offered water until I asked towards the end of our meal.

Tasty food and decent coffee. When the dishes came out they were visually amazing. I had the Ebi Katsu Curry and tasted as good as it looked. Reminded me of the curried rice dishes I ate in Japan. Coffee was not bad but nothing special. My friends had the Chicken Katsu Sando and the Prawn Tempura Nori Taco. They both liked their dishes as well. Definitely come back for the food and the staff actually smile whilst they offer a great service.
