    The staff and space were amazing. Parking is available underneath the Coffee Factory. It is all covered if it’s raining. We booked a table for 8am by 830am it was completed full inside. The coffee was amazing , however the food was disappointing , we had the pancakes w bacon, crumpets , hash browns w cheddar and egg and sausage muffin. Hash browns were hard to cut and eat , too much sauce in the egg and sausage muffin, which had two sauces BBQ and Aioli. Crumpets were hard to cut w butter knives. The pancakes were fluffy however tasted a little like egg. Maple syrup was delicious. The staff were prompt and friendly and accomodating .

    Dear Paula, Thank you for visiting and for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the atmosphere, prompt service, and amazing coffee. It’s also great to know the parking and covered access added to your convenience. We appreciate your honest comments about the food. While we’re pleased the pancakes were fluffy and the maple syrup delicious, we’re sorry to hear that some dishes didn’t meet your expectations. Your input on the hash browns, crumpets, and sausage muffin is invaluable and has been shared with our kitchen team for review. Thank you again for highlighting both the positives and areas for improvement. We hope to welcome you back soon for an even better experience. Warm regards, Nagi (The Grounds)
