Coffee is of a decent price, but they take their time in serving it to you. On a couple of occasions I've gone in there, and been bumped back in the queue when a friend of theirs or the police come in after me.

The atmosphere in there is unsettling. The owner is quite aggressive and surly.. You just want your coffee and to get out of there.

I prefer Garage round the corner.

Best coffee on Carlisle Street, hands down! Also excellent value at $3. The muffins are also fantastic. The only thing I can fault is that the muffins aren't made early enough for me to grab one before work, but they make for a lovely weekend treat. Also a bit of a bummer that they're closest Sundays, but I guess the owner deserves a day off too!

I love the modern Australian cuisine. I had this really beautiful porridge for breakfast here. It was absolutely delicious.

The breakfast menu is brilliant. The MT's breakfast is well recommended, the scrambled eggs and the plate enormous. The French Toast with bacon and maple syrup is my hubby's favourite. The milkshakes/juices are great. Try the porridge, strawberries and almonds with a touch of cinamon - best I've ever had.
