A few blocks away, worth the few minutes walk (busy weekends)...
'The coffee is on point, the service was funky and at the same time highlighted why certain people should be in the industry over others.
Food... all I can say, is get in there and try before it runs out! I had the blue burger and words cannot explain the mixture of flavours I tasted. From the coffee infused bacon jam to the bright coloured orange yolks of the eggs.
Highly recommend.'

About three blocks up Abercrombie St from house (cross over Cleavland St), one of the few cafes around with a near five star rating. Very high ratings, eg 'This place deserves its stars. The food is delicious and the range is wide - all executed well. I was a little sceptical because it didn't have the fancy atmosphere that most cafes do these days but the effort is in the food, and the place is comfortable and very friendly.'
