Signature cocktail-style coffee drinks (coconut cloud, iced tiramisu cloud); table service despite high volume; dog accommodated via side-door service; high chairs available; coeliac-conscious kitchen; large colourful outdoor mural.

Not applicable. contemporary Modern Australian café with eclectic menu influences.

Melbourne café pricing. a few reviewers flag specific specials as expensive for the portion size, but the overwhelming consensus is that quality justifies the cost.
