Menu

Enjoy our lovingly created menu. We are committed to serving wholesome food – from organic fresh produce and pasture-reared, sustainably sourced meat and organic eggs, to our craft cool drinks, kombucha, sourdough loaves and kimchi – all are locally sourced.

We bake our cakes and buns in-house, and our sauces and dressings are made from scratch. We know exactly what goes into your food. We offer an extensive range of vegetarian dishes, and most items can be made vegan.

In our commitment to minimising waste, we’ve long partnered with a local food garden where our kitchen scraps are composted to grow produce that supports the unhoused. We also work with a local recycling initiative, taking meticulous care in sorting and storing all recyclables for collection. Conscious consumption is at the forefront, always.
