Great coffee and excellent service! Odd location at the entrance to a medical centre but worth stopping for a takeaway as there's parking directly out front.

Best coffee in Hobart area. Fantastic staff and service. Great biscuits and cakes. The banana bread is the best around. Find myself driving out of my way every morning for my daily cappuccino. Try it out and support a small local business.

I used to come to this spot all the time for a coffee and then sadly moved out of the area for a few years. When I moved back to Moonah, I went back to the cafe and right as I walked up, not only did the lovely barista remember me, she remembered my order. How many baristas remember their customers THAT well? Over the last five years, the quality has never dipped. This is just a five star, all-round, amazing place to stop for a coffee! Thanks for all the mochas over the years.

I stop by at least twice weekly on the way to work. Coffee is always great and often grab a kiss biscuit too. Yummo. Service is always quick and the ladies are friendly.
