The most amazing people and incredible food! During my wife's pregnancy, after medical visits, we'd stop by for some food and coffee (decaf for my wife) and they were as excited about our baby as we were. They'd remember our faces, our due date and always go out of their way to provide us great service. Truely the kindest and sweetest people you could ever meet. We love this cafe and couldn't recommend them highly enough!

Went there for quick dinner a few weeks back. Very friendly staff. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the spaghetti bolognese before I even get a chance to taste it. Delicious freshly made focaccia. The house special arancini (salmon) was great too!

I was delighted to discover this hidden gem! The atmosphere is vibrant, and the people are lovely. The coffee is exceptional, but let’s talk about their cannoli – absolute perfection! Fresh, distinct, and incredibly delicious. I’m already planning my return to explore their diverse menu, focusing on trying their pasta dishes. This place is an absolute must-visit for anyone seeking a delightful culinary experience. The combination of great company, superb coffee, and mouthwatering cannoli makes it a standout destination. I look forward to indulging in more of their offerings and making this spot a regular go-to for my dining adventures.

Beautiful people making beautiful food and coffee with premium ingredients. Everything is lovingly prepared in the kitchen at the back. Coffee is great, giant croissants are crunchy and light, and their doughnuts are heavenly, light and scrumptious! My new go to coffee place in Kogarah.

The coffee is outstanding, the food is fresh and full of flavour, and the ciambelle/donuts are simply extraordinary — soft, delicious, and unforgettable.

I was there at a quiet time of the morning. Service was quick and great. The coffee was perfection, by my standards. Lovely sweets and good basic egg based breakfasts. The home made donuts were exceptional and very fresh. You may not like other donuts after trying these since they may result in a raising of your standards. I would have added a photo of those but I ate them. Update 5 days later: back agan the donuts were even better than I remembered. Fresh, sweet, bready, and larger than your average donut. Huge choice of fillings, but I am a purist and opted for cinnamon sugar. Perfect with their delicious flat whites. I used to think the Berry donut van was good, but I have to concede that this place in Kogarah is better.
