Given the context of this café, in a cluster of new build houses in a new subdivision, I was ready to be resignedly disappointed but I was, in fact, pleasantly surprised.
The coffee (flat white) was good.
My selection of Eggs Benedict on Fried Chicken and Potato Rosti was, I thought, an ambitious menu option for a quiet suburban kitchen at mid-morning on a Tuesday. However everything seemed cooked to order and if there was anything re-heated then it was done well enough to fool me.
The fried chicken had a pleasing crunch to the coating. The eggs poached perfectly. The Hollandaise was a tad lemony. The rosti was a touch coarse and a bit crispy for my taste.
The space was quiet and sunny. The aesthetic mixed. Two kinds of tables, hipster bare wood and normie formica. The addition of antiqued wall decor odd in an otherwise dialled down, stripped back, spot. It felt like a new owner had taken on someone else's vision and started moving in a different direction.
The service was friendly and efficient.
This unpretentious café in Flat Bush rose high above my unreasonably low expectations. 5 out of 5 for Flat Bush. Thank you.

Mother and I stopped in here for lunch. I had really good scrambled eggs. The bacon was yum too. My mother had children Fili which she said was good. We finished off sharing lime cheesecake which was excellent. I really enjoyed my coffee as well
Flat Bush is lucky to have this good cafe on its doorstep.

I have been to every cafe where it was rated high with my wife in Auckland and this place has best coffee and food. Like this cafe name, texture of the coffee and food is there with taste. Open space with about 13~15 tables inside and out side. On a beautiful day, this place is the best place to go and have a breakfast or lunch with you loved ones. My wife loves this place. That's 10 stars. :)
