Delicious breakfast - today’s Avo special was excellent, great coffee and the staff are friendly and helpful. The special looked too big so they split it for us, they were still generous portions. Don’t be fooled by the small shop front, there are a series of rooms including a child’s play area. Fabulous in every way

Humble, cosy and very welcoming café. The girls at the counter were very nice with us, tried to accommodate our request in the best way possible, trying to reserve a back room for our group coming for breakfast. Good idea to have the onion rings in the big brekky, very original and appreciated. Good job team, Riot City Wrestling team loved the way you welcomed us.

Fabulous coffee & decadent creamy baked cheesecake. Perfect for an afternoon pick up. Small amount of gift items in store also if your stuck for a gift.

Delicious, yummy, well-made, well presented, and modestly priced food. Very charming and friendly staff. Very pretty, boutique interior. Very clean toilet. Big brekky, waffles, eggs benny, immunity juice, cappucinos, and babycinos all perfect. The coffee is Boston Bay coffee. But at this cafe, the coffee was extracted perfectly, and the milk foam was so thick and deep, I could sip it for days. Perfect. In future I'll skip Pt Lincoln and stay at Tumby Bay just because of this cafe.
