Reviews
"This was our first weekend after we moved to Wellington for good. Went to this cafe with a amazing review ratings only to be disappointed in multiple forms - food was over-toast and over-crisp, took a few attempts to remind the busy servers about any request. Only reason I’m not going with a 1-star review is because they offered 50% discount for the forgettable experience we had. Lesson learnt - never to visit over on a busy day (any sunny weekend)."
"I love this place so much! It's the kind of place where you absolutely know you are always going to get great service and amazing food. We went to try the Burger Wellington offerings, and unlike most other places, it was amazing for my non vegan partner and my vegan self to feel like we were both having the same experience, as there are matching burgers. I would absolutely recommend this place for a great meal out and even more so if you have a fur baby, as they have a whole extra menu, just for them!"
"I really liked the ambience. The coffee and pastries were both very good. Will definitely go back to try the food as well."
"We came here after looking at the menu online, and the food did not disappoint! Yesterday we'd bought coffee to takeaway which we enjoyed, and today we came for dinner. Three adults and three kids, four cheese fondue for the kids to share and a vegan and gf fondue for the adults. Great food all round! Friendly staff, with good service, we look forward to coming back next time we're in Wellington! ❤️"
"I was craving for something spicy yesterday and their burrito was just the right thing for my craving and the weather. They were very busy, so understandably wait for a little while before the food arrived. The good thing was all the food and the coffees were good."
