We used to come here regularly for breakfast and had never tried the lunches there so we visited a few weeks ago.

I wasn’t as impressed with my lunch as I was with their breakfast (I love their bircher museli.) I also felt the prices were quite pricey. My BLT was $14.50 and my partners fish and chips was $19.50. I don’t mind paying those prices for a restaurant but as it’s a cafe amongst a food market hall (albeit an upmarket food hall), I felt they were pushing it.

My roll was soft and sweet but I personally prefer something with a bit of crunch. My partners fish was ok but he felt it lacked a bit of oompf. Below are some pics we took.

The seating options are at a large, square communal table or long bench inside or you can sit at tables out in the market hall however it can get quite loud and echo’y.

I think I may stick to their breakfasts in the future which I think are better value for money.

The fish and chips which was $19.50. Well presented but my partner felt it lacked flavouring.
