The breakfast was really good, staff really helpful and friendly, and it's dog friendly. They even bring water bowls and made us sausage for the dogs.

Fantastic food, excellent service, and great vibes all around. The cocktails (Mai Chai in particular was my fav!) are amazing and the open sandwiches are a must try. I’ll definitely be back for the service alone!
