Absolutely delicious. Catered beautifully for gluten free, dairy free and even had a dessert option to suit. My husband had the tiger prawns and I had the eye fillet. Both were delicious. Highly recommend.

We stopped in for a stretch of our legs and hoping there would be something gluten free in the cabinet. There was HEAPS. Including the best gluten free pie (butter chicken no less!) I have ever had. The coffee was great, super cute little courtyard out the back with a good mix of shade and sun. Would highly recommend!
