Reviews Shambhala Espresso

Called by here for an early breakfast with the pooch. First up the coffee was on point, rich & creamy with good strength. Only fault was the large amount of foam on the flat white, but this didn't ruin my taste sensation of the blend. They also serve an iced version of espresso which is very appropriate on a hot day The Buddha Bowl I ordered was delicious. Came in a huge serve with sweetly spiced potato cakes, salty feta & hommous, sweet corn & beetroot chips. Highly recommended dish. The cafe has a relaxed vibe, with cool service & I loved those prayer flags on the ceiling, took me back to the Himalayas

Although there were not many reviews can act as reference of this espresso, the photographs revealed that the presentation of dishes looked very good. such lure tempted me to have an exploration this morning. Thanks for the 7 days trading with early start daily so I could enjoy an early brekkie here without too rush. Dropped in and was greeted by the very friendly staff. Ordered the coffee and the weekend special omelette. It did not take a long time to have the coffee on the table. It looked great with delicate latte art on the top. Aroma and strength were so good with significant depth of flavour. That made my gaze searching around to find what was the brew that it was made from (The answer is "Louie Louie"). Even though it was the first time that I had such brand but it was so impressive and also reflected that the café was seriously in the business, thumb-up! Next to the table was the omelette. Well, presentation gained marks at the first sight. I never had an omelette with the egg so smooth. The good thing was that the smoked salmon was not mixed to the egg and pan-fried; otherwise the smoked salmon would be salty and the texture would lose the softness. The cue of success of this dish was the balanced ingredients with diced onion and tomato mixed with herbed chees and spinach. Actually, I don't mind to have such brekkie everyday and that is why this hidden gem achieved the full marks.

Been driving past Shambhala numerous times and finally had a chance to go today. Coffee was great and dreamy. The taste was very mutual with a hint of bitterness, which I dug. One of the best we have had. Almost bought coffee beans from them. We especially loved the orange and almond cake. It was so refreshing and light. The orange flavor was very consistent throughout. The hazelnut cake was delicious too but we both decided we loved the orange and almond cake more. Service wise, we both thought they could use a bit of improvement. The chick who served us did not seem too thrilled to be there. But the owner (correct me if I’m wrong), on the other hand, was much warmer and welcoming. Will come back again.

Definitely 5/5 for staff, service, coffee, chai (6th star - not powdered but loose leave tea properly brewed) and food. We ordered avo on toast, and mentioned we were sharing. The staff brought us two separate plates that were well presented. Minor details makes big difference. All the staff members seem to be genuinely interested in the cafe ! Highly recommend going there.

Awesome little cafe with fantastic staff and delicious coffee. We chose to have the breakfast gnocchi on the advice of their staff and did not regret our choice. Place is dog friendly with a couple of spots to tie your pet up. Go check this place out!

Beef brisket burger and coffee were damn delicious! Service was super friendly as well. Will return when I visit brissi next for sure ☺️
