  • Signature Specialty Jaffles

    A dedicated lineup of themed pressed jaffles, from the French and American to the English and Cubano, offers a distinct cafe experience.

    The last two times went for breakfast and tried the jaffles. Yum! Had the French both times. My dining companion had the American, then next time had the English.

Before you head over

Helpful tips on seating, dining with pets, and menu highlights for your visit

  • Explore the Specialty Jaffle Range

    The cafe features a dedicated selection of savoury jaffles, ranging from the Cubano served with chips to French, American, and English options, as well as a vege jaffle for plant-based diners.

  • Head to the Rear Courtyard with Pets

    If you are visiting with a dog or prefer open-air seating when the indoor dining room gets bustling, head to the back courtyard where staff provide dog water bowls.

  • Consider Outdoor Seating During Busy Hours
