I like this place, though it does have drawbacks. The food is not brilliant, and is a bit pricey for what it is (though not outrageously priced by any means). Sometimes the service is a bit patchy. Probably what makes it worthwhile is the friendly staff, interesting decor, interesting music, good coffee, and great location. Its a good place to get a simple meal or some coffee and toast in the morning. Its delightfully unpretentious.
I stopped here for breakfast early this morning; it seemed like a nice, friendly place and the waitress was prompt and professional, bringing my tea in double-quick time. I happily ordered the eggs florentine, thanking my lucky stars that my fave breakfast dish was on the menu. But the menu had failed to inform me that the spinach constituent of the dish was of the greyish frozen/canned variety, the muffin more like a cheap soft white roll, and that the whole kit and caboodle came on a bed of iceberg lettuce. I'm sure they do other dishes well (am I really...? Why would anyone not use fresh spinach?) and that those dishes are set at a more reasonable rate ($11+ for my fake florentine). My advice: just don't order the eggs florentine if you're a fresh-food lover.
Had a great meal, reasonable price and sensational friendly staff. The coffe and the bangers and mash were A1. Great place to read the paper and relax after a big night out clubbing.
