A nice place to enjoy a Coffee whilst waiting for an appointment. Coffee was good. Freshly roasted and served hot. My Daughter enjoyed her Green Macha Tea with Soy. She said it was just what she needed to soothe her Cold. Turkish with Peanut Butter was delicious. An extremely Colourful and Cosy Cafe. The Staff were Lovely. There's a bathroom upstairs. Prices are North Shore...bit Exy. We enjoyed it.

Food was great, everything is cooked and prepared fresh, great service and authentic Thai food. Great place to have a coffee or a bite, although it's a small place you can't miss it as it's next right to the ACU high rise tower. Inside was nice and not crowded at all, great place to eat and do some work too. Not only do they offer thai food but they have other nibbles and whatnot that can be purchased. Overall would highly recommend especially if you work in the area or study at ACU.
