Got a chai latte and sausage roll to go this morning. The chai latte was perfect, just the right amount of spice and coffee, totally set me up for the day. As for the sausage roll... it was one of the best I've ever had! The flaky pastry was cooked to perfection and the sausage meat was so tasty, I've no idea what they have added but it was amazing. Next time I'm in Lisburn, I'll have to go back and try something else here. The place looked clean and the staff were friendly too. Totally recommend this place

Probably the best breakfast in Lisburn, great vegan options, and speedy service. On a side note, employs a few adults with learning difficulties, Susie who makes the coffee is just great. Have been back several times since.

Great wee spot, well priced, staff are friendly. The fry is highly recommended and they offer alternative milk for those who need, oat, soya etc.

Great breakfast, well cooked. The bacon was really tasty and the eggs were light and fluffy. Service brilliant, such lovely ladies who thought of everything we might need eg: I drink very weak tea so ask for a teabag on the side and hot water - the waitress brought a little dish to hold my teabag once 'dipped' - first time anyone has thought to do that. Also everywhere was spotless and they were constantly cleaning. Highly recommend .
