Coffee is good. Space for about 10-12 tables. Half indoor / half outdoor. Will be back with my family. Got a takeaway Hot Cross bun which looks scrumptious! Came back again for a road trip. Look at those Brookies (Cookies!) worth the trip from Melbourne for the day.

The best!!! And I mean the best coffee I have had for a long time anywhere. Will go out of my way to stop here to receive not only amazing friendly service but the best coffee around. You won't regret it.

Great spot for brunch and a coffee. Iced coffee with ice cream delicious. We ate the Turkish eggs and pulled pork eggs Benedict. These were actually great to share together. Brookies look to die for. Lovely menu, would recommend 100%

Excellent coffee beans but soy is now the cheap brand that masks the coffee taste but other styles are still exceptional. The bean roaster is tops! The food is well presented and delicious with good options for a non meat eater. They will do food to order if you have dietary requirements away from the traditional Aussie diet (which is a really bad one) . All staff are upbeat, friendly and provide terrific customer service. I was so happy to see a great cafe in Rushworth finally!!! Well done to everyone involved! Today (30/03/2023) The yummy fig jam & orange muffins! It was one of the best I’ve ever eaten as it was moist, light in texture and broke apart easily as real muffins should. Made by Crystal with perfection - thanks! As always a great coffee too!⭐

I visited at lunch time on a Saturday for a coffee and I didn't expect to find anything suitable to eat. I was so delighted to see nearly every item on the menu can be made gluten free and OMG they have a dedicated gf cake cabinet. I had a lovely gf bacon and egg toastie, brookie and a perfect coffee. I bought two more brookies to go. The staff are so lovely and they really understand gf that's safe for coeliac. They're next to the Rushworth market, well worth a visit
