Stopped by for a quick bite, this place must be new because I have never noticed it before. Excellent coffee, bang on the mark for a caffeine hit! Loved the Shashuka dish, will definitely be my new local for coffee and croissants!

We stopped over into this bakery and bought a Lemon Grass Bahn Mi and it was fantastic. The Baguette was soft, the moisture inside the roll was good and the flavours were perfect . We also ordered coffee and we were impressed with tge quality of the coffee as well.

Great atmosphere. Wonderful design and art. Toilet could’ve been better. The Lot banh mi was quite good and all ingredients in it were great. I would love to try their other options. I did want the cookie to be heated slightly more. I also saw a small insect flying on the cookies.

Not just about the baguettes :-) Called in here with friends for lunch - coffee great and not being a great bread eater (sorry, Taste Baguette) I selected the fresh prawn rolls and a kale, mango and avocado salad. Excellent. Service very fast and friendly. Definitely a great new addition to the area.

Nice little Vietnamese cafe with a modern twist! Banh MI (with the lot) was very tasty and generous in size, with fresh ingredients and herbs. The hummus plate was so delicious just wished there were more falafel balls. Fresh juices and Vietnamese coffee round up. Plenty of seating available and food arrived promptly. Amex accepted!
