embrace the simple & surprising beauty that fresh herbs & leafy vegetables can exude in a flower jar at a truly green cafe
beautifully made fresh juices & heart-warming coffee
the luscious chai latte w/ its abundance of perfectly-mixed spices
coddled hen egg // slowly cooked hen egg, locally cultivated oyster mushrooms, wild herbs (foraged daily), served on toast w/ brown butter
oats or granola // freshly rolled oats, yoghurt, Joost’s honey & poached or fresh fruit
to feast on what is fresh & wholesome
eat out of the lovely Bakker-designed, flowerpot-shaped terracotta crockery or recycled glass bottles
the clean, greenhouse, industrial chic interior – where the only rubbish bin is the dehydrator behind converting organic waste into fertiliser for the cafe’s suppliers
along w/ the eco-friendly, seasonal menu comes great coffee crafted by experienced hands
delight in the freshly baked bread created from milling whole wheat grain right in the kitchen, rustically churned butter & other fine foods made from scratch
perch on the skilfully recycled communal table & watch the magic surrounding the making of your food
remember – don’t waste anything
oh wow, I didn’t realise they were on Hardware Lane! shall have to scout them out
