What a great cafe. Cosy and welcoming. Lovely staff. This is a special place with a lovely vibe. The wonderful staff behind the counter and in the kitchen couldn’t have been friendlier nor more helpful! I had the avocado with poached eggs (very generous serve and delicious). My friend had the Adobo Loco Moco.. I had a taste and it was as good as it looked! Will be coming back. And they make a good long black too! When I’m back in the area, I’ll try one of the delicious looking cakes.

Tried the halo-halo here and it was absolutely top-tier — beautifully layered, vibrant, and packed with flavour. The ube ice cream was creamy and rich, and the mix of jellies, sweet beans, leche flan, and jackfruit was perfectly balanced over finely shaved ice. You can tell care goes into every bowl — it’s generous and indulgent without being overly sweet. The café itself is cozy with a relaxed vibe. Staff were friendly and welcoming, happy to explain the menu for first-timers. It’s refreshing to find a place that does halo-halo this well on the North Shore! If you’re craving authentic Filipino sweets or just want to cool down with something unique and delicious — definitely worth the stop.

Very homely and friendly service, food was also delicious. They are also inspired by Vietnamese food, explaining why banh mi is on the menu. The barbecue pork banh mi was flavourful and filling. The adobo loco moco is delicious, though rice was slightly greasy. Halo halo is one of my favourite desserts and they make it very well here, definitely justified ordering it for our brunch. Good coffee and the mug size is huge!
