You are immediately struck by the rustic Belgian ambience of this cafe restaurant and bakery. Gentle colors and unpretentious wooden chairs and tables greet you; exposed wooden floors reinforce the country feel. Charm and simplicity is the tone. With inside and outside seating at the location in Marina Crescent, a fabulous view is guaranteed – no matter what the weather is like. Wonderfully casual and homely, this organic restaurant and bakery is driven by the notion of better for you, pure and simple food. Famous for its breakfasts and lunches, regular specials alongside the menu, as well as the products they sell (we love their granola parfait and their organic coffee); ensure your taste buds will never get bored.
