LOVE this place, can you tell? I first ate pizza here around 7 years ago, I believe. And it has consistently remained awesome. The owner is a really happy guy that seems to remember me - even from my first couple of visits. I'm not sure if that's just his personality though, coz he must meet so many people a day.

This pizza place is fairly popular among students. I love the margherita pizza from here (you must try it straight out of the oven - be careful you don't burn yourself, but even if you do, it will still be worth it!), and they have a spaghetti pizza which is pretty cool too. The other pizzas are nice, but less worth of mention. The pepperoni is a bit spicy - too much so for me unfortunately.

Pizza has remained fairly cheap here. Something like $2.50 a slice? Could be more or less, like I said - I've gone here for 7 years. I know I once bought it for $2, but there was at least one price increase.

Oh probably useful to know: the pizza has a thin base. I actually usually prefer thicker bases, but this is nice and crispy.

Nice coffee, used to get it half price (they have.. had?) a happy hour around 3 or 4pm. The main guy that works there (I assume he's the manager) is the friendliest! He's always calling me darling or honey and asking me how my day is. Makes me smile! :D

Agree with the below review. Just want to add the following:

-help yourself water
-mixture of couches and normal tables
-quiches are nice here

Sandwiches are the same as those sold in the commerce building across the road and some of the other cafes in the area. They're not bad, particularly if you haven't had them before. But if you study/work nearby, chances are you've had them a few times too many. They're quite big and filling, and pretty pricey (about $8 for a sandwich..). I would be interested in a half serve for half the price.

You'll see a fair few students waiting for coffee between classes - don't be fooled by this, their coffee is pretty bad (I know a fair few people with this opinion) but when you have 5 mins to rush downstairs, grab a coffee and get back, this is the only real choice.

I usually get vegemite toast from here - it's only $1.80 for a slice (fairly large slice) and sometimes you get lucky and they use the thick sourdough. Other times you get some crappy thin multigrain. I've also had a nice amount of vegemite and the thickest most disgusting layer of vegemite (clearly by someone who has never tried vegemite and doesn't realise the potency..). It's a gamble, but for $1.80 I don't mind.

Eftpos minimum spend is $15 from memory, so you likely want cash.

Agree with the below review on being a bit pricey - but the food I have had there I liked (the egg and bacon muffin and the lasagna come to mind!). And everything looks reeeally good. It's a good change from the usual University cafes.

It's also nice coffee for the area - I certainly prefer it to 7 seeds. Another friend of mine also prefers this coffee over the other local places.

Very tasty sushi. I particularly like the cooked tuna - it has corn in the tuna mixture! I had never seen that before.

Staff are quick to serve you. On the more expensive side for hand rolls, but if you're going for taste, might as well pay the extra 50 or so cents to eat momo sushi.

The parma here is pretty awesome. They have standard fare for a pub, beers on tap etc. Great place to hang if you're a student and want a break between or after classes.

The baked eggs and paninis here are delicious! Little pricey. Service takes a while, but fair enough as they're usually pretty busy and have tables inside and out of the little cafe.

Nice coffee, fair trade options, good amount of outdoor seating. I haven't been there since last year, but they at least used to give you a pod (chocolate biscuit) with each coffee.

The sushi and onigiri (used to come here from the suburbs just to eat onigiri!) here are excellent. Bummed that they don't have plain cooked tuna handrolls, but liked trying their other types. Coffee surprisingly isn't bad either. You probably don't want to eat in - fairly small shop.
