Great food and coffee here. The $10 deal for either breakfast or burger with a coffee or a drink is amazing value. Well worth a visit

Discovered this little gem of a place while on our holiday at Alex beach. Good breakfast choices and comes with a small coffee of your choice if you spend $10 or more. Been here 3 times and have had the Monster burger, big breakfast and eggs benedict. The food was good and fresh. The cheerful lady behind the counter greets you with a big smile. Excellent customer service and fantastic value for money. Slightly off the beaten track. Highly recommend.

The service was excellent and it is a casual set up.(relaxing) First time so can't comment on the food options. However I did find it more than reasonably priced. I have marked it as a favourite when next in the area.
