So this is my go to place for my daily coffee . Mostly by myself or with a mate , my grandkids and occasionally my x wife ( very occasionally on the last one ) The service is always exceptional. The coffee always of a high quality and the girls ( yes and the young man too I guess ) are always upbeat and fun . Eva runs a great little team there and the experience and atmosphere always very positive . I can’t comment on the food but the grandkids often eat there with Pop and they love it . Definitely my go to coffee shop

Archer Iced Matcha was Perfect. Very Nice staff and always good vibes. Totally worth the walk from Starbucks if you want quality experience!

Went there today to get a meal and coffee. Service by Eva and Annie was very welcoming and menu items pointed out. I had a turkey and Brie bagel, and my wife the cheese and bacon danish. Both very tasty, and my wife said the coffee was excellent! The girls are a credit to this company. They were happy, willing to have a friendly chat and gave great service. Highly recommend this place if you’re after a nice meal, coffee and service from people who really enjoy their work!

I've always loved the coffee from here. . . However, the bagels!!! They are hands down the best bagels I've had from anywhere, they are not only better value than the actual bagel cafe upstairs, but they taste incredibly better too!!!

The café has hired wonderful staff , they’re full of enthusiasm and can brighten your whole day. The coffee is great, and the bagels are truly substantial. As someone who’s on a diet, bagels are one of the few eating-out options for me, and after trying many places that serve bagels in Chermside Shopping Centre, this one is the best. I also appreciate that the tables are very clean and positioned away from the main flow of people, making it an unusually quiet and peaceful spot — quite a rare find in a shopping centre.
