Amazing food, friendliest staff in Sydney, and a super location in Manly.
Location: it’s a small neighbourhood cafe with a funky vibe. Outdoor tables on two sides as well as indoor seating. From where we were sitting there were glimpses of the water on both sides and a gentle breeze to boot. Bliss!
Service: from the friendly waitress who went and fetched me a panini, so that I knew what I was ordering and made some excellent menu suggestions; to Vini the owner who came out to greet us and have a little chat, this cafe has service down pat.
Food: over three visits we have had an excellent Bacon and egg roll; Mango smoothie- flavour was superb; Chilli Crab omelette- it was delish; smoked salmon and scrambled eggs-perfectly executed; Prato Feito with scotch fillet- tasty black beans, perfect seasoned chips; and a 14 hr slow roasted brisket breakfast plate that they made into a sandwich at my request, on panini with portabello mushroom and aioli. That brisket sandwich alone was truly worth coming back.
Oh but I haven’t gotten to the best part. The Coffee! Truly outstanding beans and barista combined to give me my #1 coffee of all time, bar none. They use beans from Salvador Coffee Roasters.
I searched for something negative to say to balance out this review and the only thing I could come up with was the food took a bit of time. Really that’s it! Everything else has been consistently outstanding.
