My latte +honey +soy milk was amazing! Just delicious as my local cafe in Brisbane. A friendly and fast customer services and the mix tropical juice was so good. 5 stars 🌟 and well deserved, excellent job guys! Cute lively location, with kids running in the water park next to it. It is a very happy cafe. Food is fresh and delicious. Don’t miss the juices here! It’s a busy service so expect delays in peak times.

Perfect spot to grab a quick family meal, snack, or dessert. It is literally in the middle of the playground so perfect place to take a break from all the fun. Of course a very child and family friendly establishment with excellent kid’s menu options. We were expecting just a very limited menu with more of a strict cafe and pastry selection, but to our surprise the meal service is quite extensive. Fish and chips, salads, smoothies, fresh juices, ice cream, and even some boutique clothes and swimsuit options for kids!
