Wow! We have been a few times and always get the same - roast chicken sandwich with chips and soup! Soup is always to die for and the sandwich is stuffed with chicken! The service is always of a very high standard - thank you!

Have been a good few times and food is always delicious. Had a lovely Cajun sandwich and they were able to adapt it to gluten free bread. I also had gluten free chips and as they use a separate fryer. So very happy with this. My friend said the bread she had with the soup was amazing. Cakes are lovely and lots are gluten free. Staff are really nice and knowledgeable about Coeliacs. Previously had a gorgeous granola bowl as well. The manager does an excellent job. Great to have this restaurant in Citywest.

Nice to grab a coffee on the run when I'm in the shopping centre. Have tried a weekend breakfast a few times, lots of options. Have had lunch too twice. Nice interesting menu, have tried different things most times I'm there. Granola dish is really nice as a breakfast, tasty and very nicely plated up too. Wife swears by their quinoa pancakes and repeatedly orders them. Interior is lovely, a lot of thought gone in with the plants and decor. Nice to have as a local eatery. Unfortunately I have no pictures but the rest of the reviews on here show how nice the food is presented and some nice interior shots. Long may they stay and I hope they do well.

Absolutely super addition to the area! Went in shortly after they first opened and have been back several times since. Lovely food, friendly and efficient staff and has been a superb experience every time we have been there! Highly recommend you try this place out

What an absolutely lovely experience today we had up in Sasta today! We called in for a take away coffee and were blown away by the creative menu and choices avaliable for hot AND cold drinks. We got the iced blue pea latte and a hot pink latte The baristas were so kind and skilled at what they do. So glad we called in by chance! It's a little haven at the back of the shopping centre. Just what we needed. Thanks for such a great experience! We really enjoyed our tasty drinks.

Quiet spot for nice food- their Cajun sandwich is tasty and large, but the roast chicken sandwich wouldn’t be tasty enough to warrant 5 stars. The Parmesan fries had an outrageous amount of cheese on them. It didn’t melt to the fries and was quite messy… but tasty. All in all, it’s definitely up there with the nicest cafes outside the city.
