Great bakery foods, friendly staff, not a full blown sit down Cafe though.

We got the snooked fish pie, it had potato top with melted cheese on top. It was delicious! The first thing we ate after hiking the pinnacles for sunrise then hiking back down. Satisfied every hunger pagne and taste bud. Would love to go back and try their sandwiches, they looked amazing too.

First time user... I popped in early Sunday and got a chocolate cake for a birthday. SO GOOD. Such a lovely texture moist but not dense. Really lovely. I would definitely recommend this wee bakery
