Highly recommended place and I must say I’m pleasantly surprised at this “hidden jewel “
Stunning decor and the food is out of this world
Staff are very professional and have a warmth that make you feel at ease, they will be happy to assist you connecting to the free WiFi.
Attention to detail is amazing. There is definitely a New York feel to this place with a books filling the walls. There are younger folks here working on their laptops and enjoying the ambiance. Outside area - for those that smoke
Top point - wheel chair friendly to all areas inside the restaurant
Make this place your “place to celebrate “ they block off part of the restaurant for private parties at a nominal fee. PS they have a liquor license and supply wine and I saw a wide range there on the well presented table . I have seen the set up and it looks amazing. The customer can choose from a verity of snacks and cold meats that are presented very tastefully ( chefs obviously present these platters )

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, yet sometimes I will eat lunch items for breakfast. We went to The Social House for breakfast recently and it's quite a lovely quirky spot.

It's full of books, for the bookworms with seating inside and out. They have a decent variety on their menu. I couldn't help but try the Chilli Hot Chocolate as it was cold that morning, it was delicious. It has just a good amount of kick and was lovely, accompanied with a block of Chocolate, and I absolutely loved the fact that everyone that ordered drinks got a glass of water as standard procedure.

For meals, I had the Steak Roll and my family had the Breakfast and the Eggs Benedict. My Steakroll flavour was really tasty, just my meat was a bit on the chewy side. The fries were delicious especially using it to lick up the sauce from my roll. ???? The family enjoyed their meals too.

We didnt try any of the cakes etc, but they looked pretty good in the showcase.

I noticed on the one wall there were medals hanging. They have this fantastic initiative that if you have old medals lying around at home that you no longer want or need you can donate it to them. They then give it to kids at children's hospital that have gone through a scary procedure, so that they can feel brave and confident afterwards How awesome is that! ????????????????????

The staff are friendly and helpful and it makes the experience even more pleasant. Will definitely come back again to try out more.

Good food! Good service! Great place with a nice easy going atmosphere.
Unbelievable that such a nice place is in the middle of the suburbs.
Well worth and can recommend it.

I had so much fun at this unique and interesting place. Books adorn book shelves along the walls, an antique piano stands before an eclectic stylish dining room. The intriguing details make this charming cafe a great place to enjoy on your own, but even better in a group like I had on Saturday. My friends and I had a blast, enjoying all the delicious variety of drinks. The food was good too, but the drinks were awesome. Try the cheese cake milkshake or refresher cocktail but the winner is an iced latte for the coffee lovers! Thanks to the staff for making my surprise impromptu engagement celebration extra special, ????????????
