Federal sets the benchmark for cafe brunches. The staff are very kind, lovely folks as well.Food stuffs:- Matcha latte (9 out of 10): rarely do cafes do matcha lattes right. This is one of the ones that gets it right. Great balance of matcha bitterness, with no added sugar.- Steak sandwich (9 out of 10): I'll be honest it looks boring from a visual standpoint. But damn, that bread! It's not quite ciabatta, but has a really great crisp to it. The steak, is cooked to what I consider perfection.- Pistachio tiramisu French toast (8 out of 10): this was one of their specials, and unfortunately not part of the regular menu. Brioche bread, soaked in cream and sweet pistachio goodness. This is also a winner

One of my favourite spots before the pandemic. Haven’t been back for a while. Staff were super friendly as always. Prices (like everywhere) have gone up but disappointingly portion sizes seem to have shrunk as well so I don’t think it’s value for money anymore.10% service charge for dine in which I didn’t spot on the menu but happy to pay. But what bothered me was the additional tip request on the card machine when ordering. So (like me) I suspect a lot of people get stung twice because they don’t realise the bill already includes a 10% service charge. Totally unnecessary to have this on the machine and there should instead be a tip jar for anyone wanting to give extra.

Very friendly staff who give excellent and fast service.The inside is filled with potted plants and art by local artists.The espresso had a nice acidic note to it. Will definitely come back.Wheelchair accessibility: There are steps to get inside. But the outdoor seating is accesible.

Everyone is so nice and polite. Food is very good and they provide bottle of water and special sauces for scrambled eggs. Would come here again:)

The breakfast experience ordering eggs benedict with salmon and French toast was delightful. The french and eggs benedict was normal i would say average in taste and presentation and bit over priced too However chai latte was really good and tasty.For the breakfast there is wait for 15-20 minutes if you want to sit insideService was really quick
