Have been taking mum here for years since her cancer. As she's a total bookworm, I found it a great place for her to just chill, read a book and have a cuppa with endless chats. She has practically a whole library of books in her house so this place is perfect to trade books and they even have loads of 2nd hand and new books to purchase. The service is great and very personal, and the slices/cakes are scrummy. On the first floor of Westfield Garden City ...

Such a comfortable place to sit and relax after a busy day. Brilliant idea having the books in there too! Pleasant staff, good coffee and a nice bite to eat.

This place was very pleasant. I found it comfortable and welcoming - brought a friend here who was visiting from overseas and we spent hours just sipping coffee and then later having dinner out on the couches. Nice way to spend an afternoon.

I particularly appreciated the fact that although we lounged about for a long time, they didn't ever place pressure on us to buy more food or to finish up - that's why we ended up staying for dinner!

Approximate cost: $20

I love buy a random book and a cuppa just to sit outside and read. And if it's random, I learn if the story and author are to you're liking. I also love their little cakes too.

This is a great place to go for a coffee and snack with friends. You can read a book while waiting and can also trade in your old books. Go and see for yourself.

lots of used books to choose from and usually in excellent condition. The cafe has expanded and tables are also outside the main premises, which allows for more customers. The food is good, cafes great and a person can read while enjoying food. Service is excellent from both perspectives.

Approximate cost: $10
