Outstanding coffee, my hubby had an almond flat white (extra shot) and I had iced coffee (coffee milk ice) and we came back again the next day because it was so good! The owner is a beautiful soul, friendly and passionate about coffee and a credit to the shop! Thank you! Next time we are travelling through Bathurst we will stop by!

Outstanding little destination coffee shop that ticks all the boxes. What a gem. Checked it out based on the online reviews and were blessed. Only 3 tables, but great, think Canberra standard, coffee and sweet snacks. Do yourself a favour and and check it out.

One of my favourite coffee shops in Bathurst, as a bonus you sometimes get a piccolo while you wait for your order. Highly recommended!
