Well...whoever wrote the review below didn't get that right... coffee is outstanding, especially since one of Melb's best baristas is on the team there. It's great to see casual dining making an entrance to this area; food is well above average, the Head Chef who happens to be female is clearly more than interested in fresh food. I'm vegetarian and more often than not, can't go past the Lemon myrtle linguine- it's to die for! This funky little space in Swan St will soon become one of the best in the area, especially if you sit under the shady trees outside drinking a cold Kirin on a Hot day!
A relative newcomer to the Swan Street cafe scene, opening its doors on 22 December 2008. Coffee is satisfactory, however can be weak especially if a "large" size is requested. Check the menu VERY carefully - not a large range of options for vegetarians. Servings can be disappointing for the price. Service slow however as a new starter, deserve a chance to prove themselves to locals and visitors alike. A nice concept cafe - they have a battle on their hands when you look at the line up along Swan Street!
