Amazingly delicious food made fresh, served with a smile! Decent decor but the food and service exceptional. Food arrived quickly as well. We ordered everything vegetarian. Egg Benedict was liked by my friend. I had avocado smash. Cauliflower toastie was an experiment. Never thought it could taste so good… coffee was good too….

Best breakfast, so far! (I’ve traveled to all the states in Australia) The Big Brekkie has well cooked and selected ingredients, especially the mushrooms. The mango smoothie was homemade and coffee well brewed.The perfect way to start your day, and if you’ve not had any typical Aussie breakfast before, this is the best place to go!

l Took my girlfriend to this fantastic cafe in Launceston for brunch this morning, and it was a winner. I had the Eggs Benedict with halloumi, and it was next-level—perfectly poached eggs, creamy hollandaise, and the halloumi added a delicious salty kick that really made it stand out. She had the Quinoa Avocado Salad, which was fresh, hearty, and full of flavor. We shared a couple of coffees, which were smooth and just the right strength to keep us going.The service was friendly and on point—no fuss, just good vibes. The place itself has a cool, laid-back atmosphere, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal.If you’re in Launceston, this place is worth a visit. Great food, solid coffee, and a chill vibe—perfect for a brunch date or just hanging out. Highly recommend!

The meal is consistently excellent. Excellent customer service to top it off. You have to give this place a try. I am sure you won’t be disappointed. Price justifies the meal they offer. The chicken toastie has always been my favourite since the day one. For a change I did try a french toast today. I was impressed by both the presentation and the taste of it. The chef probably knows what he/she is doing. Keeping up theconsistency with the meals is a plus. This place is my every week favourite.

Ate here twice during my work trip to Tasmania last week - awesome food and great service. I mentioned I was having to work/travel on my birthday and the gorgeous Harriet and her lovely Boss were so kind and sang me happy brithday as they bought out the pancakes I ordered with balloons, chocolates and a Great Scot Cafe pen. They definitely made a stranger feel very spoilt. Thanks so much ladies

My friends and I visited this café for breakfast, and it was an absolute delight! Every bite was bursting with flavor, and we truly enjoyed each and every blend of food. The atmosphere was cozy, the service was warm and welcoming, and the quality of the food was exceptional. We can’t wait to visit again soon!

Great Scott! The best eggs Benny I’ve ever had. The food and tea was made more delicious by the extremely warm service from everyone, especially Harriet. Can’t wait to come back and try the other dishes. (Picture taken after I already took a bite, I couldn’t resist)
