Great spot. Staff are friendly, vibes are good. Usually park cafes are bland and overpriced. But this place brings a nice energy to Burgess. The food and decor are great, with a nice selection of canned beers.

Disappointing lattes, quite bitter. We had a standard latte and oat milk decaf latte. The cups were so small but coffee shot size still the same which meant the coffee tasted much stronger (and less milk means less masking coffee thats on the bitter side), and makes it taste less like a nice milky latte. Both the standard and oat decaf lattes did not taste nice. One could say the coffee was just too strong as there is not enough room for the milk, which is true, however there is a way to make this work with a smaller cup, but the espresso shot needs to be more balanced (rather than bitter), which requires more skill and attention (incl. adjusting grind size and espresso pull time), as there is less milk to smooth out any imperfections. Sadly, we could have just gone on a bad day, but the coffee tasted really bitter and was just not enjoyable and we had already left before we noticed. Also the price charged was already at the top end for most lattes elsewhere, but much smaller. Could have been a bad day, as generally reviews seem good, but I did see a few other "bad day" reviews so maybe they are just not that consistent. Next time we might try Clubhouse Cafe on the other side of the park and see how that is. On a plus note, the cupcakes and muffins were very nice.
