Ive never been in this place Lauren. Is it really good coffee? I do love a decent cup of coffee.

Anyone recall the 'big' cups you used to get way back? Now they're quite small.

When we lived out there, there was a place along the out road (can't remember name..was it 'Cha' ?) where we would sometimes have lunch (used to do large delish sarnies) and the large cups of coffee, sprinkled with cinnamon (think it was cinnamon or powdered choc/coffee)

I like the Metabixo is a great place for an afternoon drink, but not impressed with thier wine they served up as I don't drink beer. They do nice milkshakes too.

Cafe Fino at the top of the hill does good coffee. I drink decaff now and its just as good there as the caffinated I used to drink.

Ditto, just a shame they don't do Guinness
