This café is pretty brand spanking new. In fact, it's only been open a few weeks or so. My fellow cafe hound and I were pleased to be visiting a fairly new kid on the block so to speak.
We arrived at midday, expecting it to be a little busy, but we were the only ones there for about half an hour or so. A trickle of other lunchtime revellers came in - a mix of office workers and casual looking types. I suspect this place is still finding it's feet whilst word of mouth gets around.
Many bicycles adorn the white walls here and they sell buy bicycles and bicycle parts. The bikes come in some deliciously funky colours and if I had any space to park one in, I would be rather tempted.
Aside from the bikes, this place is light and airy, with communal tables as well as a leather sofa and smaller tables dotted about the place.
I ordered a skinny flat white along with a tuna and cheese melt with jalapeños, and a pumpkin and chickpea salad.
It all seemed to be made with love. The tuna and cheese melt arrived, and it was what it said it was - a tuna and cheese melt with jalapeños. It tasted fine, but if I'm honest, I prefer my own home made tuna and cheese melt...
The pumpkin and chickpea salad was nice and fresh. Again though, nothing out of this world. So I am just going to say it was fresh, tasty and seemingly healthy.
