Despite them clearly being short staffed (and I can understand being it was New Years and some staff probably cancelled) they were very attentive and I was very impressed how friendly they were. The food was amazing and the latte I had is very possibly the best I've ever had!

The food was incredible. I I had the burger and I could not stop eating it. The fries were the best. We went for brunch and we had options for lunch too. My friend had the mushroom omelette and it was simply out of this world. The food, the ambience, the setting, and the surface is absolutely outstanding.
