My morning ritual would not be the same if I didn’t get my first coffee of the day here. Always met with a great start to the day welcome smile, chat, tales of the world etc. And what about the atmosphere sitting out in the sun or under umbrellas for lunch, aaahhhhhh delightful.

Great coffee and food and friendliest owner and staff ever. The street cleaners were making a noise so the owner gave me a delicious frittata on the house - legend!

Coffee sparked off the Age of Enlightenment, before the sun lights up the streets these friendly bunch are dosing up punters and lightening eye lids as standard. Great coffee.

I can't believe I'm writing a review about coffee. I get off the train to catch the Metro at Sydenham, but I come here once a week for the coffee. Seriously, by far the best coffee I've ever had (I usually get a cap). His service is humble and matches his coffee. Best in town.
