Nice cafe with friendly country people. They make a pretty decent cuppa and have a bunch of delicious meals on offer as well. Spacious outdoor seating with a view of greenery and sculptures. The perfect spot to reflect after your visit to NERAM, or just to chill and enjoy the environment.

Amazing food, we had lunch there and it was the best meal we have had in Armidale. Lots of taste, well presented. Recommend going there and checking out the gallery as well.

Great coffee! Fantastic corn fritters! Unfortunately it was freezing cold in the cafe. NERAM control the heating.

Attended my mother's 83rd birthday girls brunch and it did not disappoint. The staff were really helpful and warm, you could have a conversation with the person opposite easily even though there were lots of people there. The food options was what you would expect for a brunch seating, however the surprise was the lime infused hollandaise sauce on my eggs Benny. I'm usually not a big fan of hollandaise and I tend to rate cafes personally on their use of it, as they all do something with it, so I order it, one bite in and I had a huge smile on my face, knowing this was going to be good. Very happy little person, and could eat that balance all morning. Well done.
