Where passion meets plate

It’s never just about the food

A coastal, family-friendly café, restaurant and bar in the heart of Torquay — serving fresh Aussie eats, quality coffee, cold beers and good vibes from morning till night.

Our story

It started in cookery school.

What started in cookery school in 2020 became something far greater than just a café. When Hari and Yash met through their shared love for food, wine, and coffee, they discovered a dream rooted in creativity, connection, and community.

From experimenting with global flavours to crafting unforgettable celebration experiences.

Today, we’re a coastal, family-friendly café serving fresh Aussie eats, quality coffee, cold beers, and good vibes from morning till night. Whether it’s breakfast with friends, a romantic date night, or a special celebration, we create moments that feel warm, welcoming, and full of heart.
