What recent reviews say

Strong visual appeal draws visitors seeking a green, pet-welcoming retreat with decent coffee, but recent trips show struggling plant care and spotty food quality that undermines the concept. Some diners report MSG-heavy dishes and meat freshness concerns, while low lunch traffic and exposed kitchen setup raise questions about operations.

Recent shift: Plant maintenance has notably declined over the last 2-3 months, shifting from "well maintained" (7 months ago) to mostly "dried or dead" (recent review). Food freshness concerns appeared in last 2 months.

The cafe wins consistently for atmosphere and coffee. Reviewers praise the cozy interior, specialty drinks (the Melbourne hot long black gets named), and how staff serve coffee in heated mugs to keep it hot. Food spans pizza-croissant hybrids to pasta and Indomie, with many dishes customizable. Weekend parking is plentiful. One recent complaint flagged non-working air conditioning upstairs.
