I really don't understand the 1 star reviews!! This place is always a joy to visit, and the staff are always welcoming and has a bright smile on their faces! I got a Too Good To Go bag here before and have came back for more ever since. Everything is high quality and reasonably priced. The Too Good To Go system is magnificent here, and the services is like never before! Definitely encouraged to visit more often and try out some of their other pastries and hot foods! 6 stars if I had the opportunity to!!!

Just had a coffee and muffin but both were good and staff were very friendly and helpful, it was a quiet Sunday and it's a great location. Hidden away inside the ECA courtyard but open to the public.

Great place and great food, found out this cafe is open to the public not just for students and staff.
