We went 2 mornings to the best breakfast in town, coffee was creamy and the right temperature with lots of taste. Could share my breakfast as it was too much for me. Will go back when we are in Mackay again.

We came last weekend and loved it! The service was quick, literally no wait even on the weekend. Cafe was clean and comfortable, plenty of space and tables. Food was fresh and so good, prices also great! I had a Mounties Breakfast and my partner had the Full Brekky. Hash browns were perfect! Also good portion sizes, and the lovely young man who brought our food over was so friendly and polite and a credit to the cafe/his family.

Fantastic little cafe/restaurant that we stumbled on up at the Marina. Great range of food on the menu, friendly staff willing to accommodate to dietary needs and food came in good time. The pancakes I had we're light and fluffy and tasted great. My partner had a bacon sandwich (no photo taken) which was a little on the fatty side has prevented a full 5* rating for the food. Overall a very good venue in which we will definitely be returning.

Spent $110 and was thoroughly impressed. Food is amazing, thickshakes are the best we have ever had. Eggs Benny was delightful, entry was hard to find. Throw a sticker on the doors for the simpletons

Today we went in for breakfast - ordered coffee, mounties breakfast and mince Benedict breakfast. Both meals and coffee were delicious! It was very busy and we needed to wait a little bit for our food. However it was worth the wait and the service was amazing.

Thank You guys this was first Barista Coffee since leaving home. Although they all charge the going rate but rarely do you find it served correctly. Appreciate you training you people properly.

Such a nice atmosphere with great staff who make their coffees with love. Best coffees I have ever tasted made by Eloise and Danny! Food is fresh, healthy and delicious. I will miss drinking my coffee here when my holiday ends.
