Sean HeathSeptember 21, 2013Walk in and put your name down. Don't worry about being polite about it.
TristenDecember 22, 2011They don't have pop BUT they make it up with Les Boulettes, dark chocolate waffle and they take debit!
FreddieMarch 7, 2011Try the paella. Spicy chorizo, shrimp and an egg over orso. Do you have room for waffle?

ChelseaJanuary 13, 2011The lavender latte is a must try. I was underwhelmed by the waffle (I've had better) but the brunch is delicious!
Get here early. Bring an umbrella. You never know if it's going to rain.
Karen HamiltonSeptember 28, 2009If you're getting the waffles (which you should), go with the chocolate lavender or white chocolate pistachio rosewater toppings. Or both.
Kevin PJanuary 15, 2012If its cold outside, be prepared to be cold inside as oblivious patrons frequently get updates on their position in line whilst holding the door open.
Crystal HerrmannOctober 22, 2009Lavender and vanilla lattes, some of the best coffee in the cityFollow it up with belgian waffles or La Sante for breakfast! Read more
Pezhman AAugust 2, 2019Arrogant front desk staff, food is okay now, few years ago everything was much better. They couldn’t keep up to the quality in service and food they initially offered
- Aaron DraczynskiSeptember 15, 2012The kitchen doesn't open until 9am, but waffles and lighter fare are served beforehand.
Tobias ReynoldsFebruary 6, 2012It's a Monday morning (10:30am) yet the service is slow. I'd finished the waffle they'd brought by the time my coffee arrived and ate ate, real slow, just like the service...
Opens at 8AM on weekdays but don't serve breakfast til 9AM :/

"I absolutely loved it. It's a fun way to spend few hours in the nature. Beside the bridge there are few other activities you can do such as the tree top walk and cliff one. Strongly recommend it"

"Nice park, must see for any visitors from it of town that want to go for a nice walk"
