“I love the bears, food and drinks It’s a really cute place :) Here my brother had the big breakfast and he loved it! I drank my coffee too quickly to take a pic but it was really good! I always get a dessert here since they have traditional dulce de leche from Argentina and make everything in house ☺️”

“Really lovely bakehouse. The energy there is just awesome. Buzzing with friendly people. We started conversations with people at 4 different tables. Had lots of laughs. Hubby and me never had an experience like that in cafe before. Food was really good. Priced well for the quality and size. Not fancy foods but more like home cooked foods and even do we are foodies we still enjoyed it and went back next day and grabbed sandwich and sausage roll. Sorry no photos of those as we finished it in a hurry but sandwich was packed with tasty filling and hubby said the sausage roll was the best he ever had. So there you go. If you not sure what to try definitely grab sausage roll. Coffee was excellent. Large size came in decent large mug and was hot and delicious.”

“Delicious food. Cozy cafe. Reasonable price. Highly recommended.”

“Beautiful setting and environment. Children play ground as well as walking tracks, one of which leads down to water front. Grounds gets very soggy on wet winters, this is so to the basketball court, paly ground, refer photos. Good summer picnic spot, quite and a hidden gem.”

“Lovely little shisha lounge to chill after a long day, the 2 owners are very kind and have top notch service every time I’ve come here with my workmates, I always get the BBQ chicken pizza everytime im here, so good and always fresh Good to see a place owned by local Westies, they know their customers very well, good RnB music going most nights too, hard to find shisha places which aren’t overly crowded and loud! Place is nice and cosy and shisha is never harsh like other spots”

“Beautiful layout & aesthetic, lovely staff & amazing products. Amid a world of mass-production & profit-driven expansion, here we can rest. The quality of the products, the whole shopping experience is definitely worth the price tag. Although I do wish there would be more seasonal sales. In summary... emmaculate vibes.”

“Tasty Cafe & Bakery in Avondale is a popular eatery that I've often visited in the last few years. The overall impression I get is that this is a great place to buy food from or dine in with family and friends. The array of pies the bakery creates is unique and never disappoints! I went for the new Cambodian fish curry pie and hot chips and it was a great combo! The pie pastry is always on point, the curry flavour infused with lemongrass (I think) is unique and flavoursome and the hoki fish melts in your mouth! Also the hot chips were crispy and tasty! Great pie and hot chips and I'll be back again for more!”
