"Had the NYC inspired Reuben toasted sandwich and it did not disappoint- the hot Choc was perfect and the team threw in a couple of pumpkin soups to wash down the meal- great warm spot on a wet winter day in Welly! Super clean and workspaces for those needing to work through their meal. Loved the vibe and friendly hosting."

"One of the best cafes in Wellington I reckon. Underrated/hidden gem. The service is lovely and the food and coffee is excellent. They do an awesome soup + cheese toastie combo that is epic. They do really good pies, sandwiches and wraps too. Highly recommend."

"16 July: Had their gingerbread hot chocolate last time and I loved it, but today I ordered the same thing and it didn't taste chocolate-y at all, and no hint of gingerbread? Just tasted like warm coconut milk with sugar. Very disappointed. Update 17 July: I popped back in, and the team kindly remade my gingerbread hot chocolate. This time, it was just as delicious as I remembered it! Rich, chocolatey, and full of that festive gingerbread flavour. Thank you so much for the lovely service and for making it right. Really appreciated!"

"Lovely staff, good vibes and AMAZING raspberry éclairs. The staff recommended the raspberry éclairs yesterday and I’m glad I tried one. Better than any of the éclairs (mostly chocolate eclairs) that I’ve tried in Wellington. Reasonable pricing too! I think they have a French pâtissier."

"Definitely recommend the banana bread and iced mocha! The vibe was super cute, I love that there's an outside kiosk but still inside seating area with table service. I love that you can order from your phone, tho this wasn't working when I went so hopefully it's back up and running soon."
