Owners (who are Filipino couples) are very friendly and welcoming! They are loved by the people in the neighbourhood which became their regular customer. The place is dog friendly, cozy and calm. It is a good place to go if you are with friends as there is no loud noise. We also tried the Biko and Cassava cake which I really loved! Highly recommended!

What a lovely spot enhanced by the couple who runs it, Priscilla and husband Eli. Enjoyed our morning coffee and a chinwag with Pricilla. It's a real neighbourly spot and can see why the locals are regulars!
