Lots of choices in the cabinet plus a good selection on their hot food, got the prawn fettuccini and came with 9 prawns so decent amount, but they probably forgot to season the pasta, the garlic prawns taste really good but the pasta was very bland. I mean there's salt and pepper on the table so I used those but had to add quite a bit! The place looks very plastic and hard, which is my lower rating on their atmosphere, but would happily come back for other things.

Hello, if you're looking for a great little place for a relaxing, but fast service for lunch you have to come here, the prices are very reasonable and the customer service is really good. The only problem you'll have is there is too much food to choose from. There is cabinet food and also a menu to choose from. I was there on a Wednesday, and there were 11 of us there, which didn't phase them at all. We were sitting upstairs. It has a lovely relaxing feel to the whole place. We'll definitely visit again.

Just had the best mince and cheese pie ever. Perfect temperature, texture and just the right amount of flake on the pastry. Good coffee too

Good friendly service, it’s great to have a cafe so close to Hutt Hospital to come and clear your mind, they have good selection of ready made food in their front counter, they have a all day menu that they can cook up for you. They have great sitting area upstairs and downstairs.
