Each pie has a golden flaky crust with rich and comforting filling - tender meat with a well-seasoned gravy without being too heavy. They also sell frozen pies and sausage rolls to take home and bake later just like bringing a slice of Australia back home. They also have a great variety of savory snacks, pastries and classic Aussie dessert like lamingtons, which pairs perfectly with their coffee. The ambiance is bright, welcoming - perfect for a quick bite or a relaxed meal.

It was pretty tight to eat, about 20% of the table is taken up by the accessory caddy, anything a person might need. I think it would be more efficient to have some of that where the server brings it, have more room for everything on the table. My two cents. I ordered the Americano and couldn't tell if it was an Americano or if it was drip coffee. The fig omelette was a pleasant surprise. I really enjoyed it, and I would certainly want to have another one. The figs throughout as well as a smear of the fig jam on top was quite good. It would've been nice with the toast I offered to have a side of the same jelly as opposed to dealing with the conventional shelf stable smuckers or welches, whatever it was, for grapes, strawberry My my daughter ordered the orange juice. It was very fresh and very nice tasting. I couldn't tell if they actually squeezed it in the back or they had a machine. Either way, it's well executed She's a simple girl, and she just wanted a simple waffle. The batter tasted quite good; however, what I envisioned for a waffle is that it's got a crispness or a crunch to it. It was more like A pancake. It could've been the fact that it wasn't turned up high enough, or maybe they didn't use the correct type of release spray that gives that frying effect. Not sure, but it's an easy tweak The service was quite good. They were friendly, very efficient, and good at anticipation. I like the feel of it, even though it was completely full. They were very efficient on getting people seated and tables turned. I think they did a great job there, and it felt very cozy as well, other than the fact that I felt like I was eating with a plate on my knees because the table's just frankly too small if they're gonna add that huge caddy to it Certainly would try again

I want to note that I wasn't greeted when I walked in, which I didn't mind at all. However, after placing my order, I watched at least four customers who arrived after me receive their drinks before mine was even started. When I asked why my coffee was being made after everyone who came in later, I was told it "takes a bit of time," which doesn't explain why it hadn't been started yet. When I pointed out that orders should be made in the order received, I was told the employee working alongside her was new -- which isn't a reasonable excuse for my order being overlooked. I also want to mention that no apology was offered, and the attitude I received in response to a reasonable question felt dismissive. Many customers, myself included, are visiting before work and need timely service. A twenty-minute wait for a single pour-over coffee, especially after being passed over multiple times, is not the experience I'd expect. I hope this feedback is helpful in improving service consistency, particularly around order sequencing and customer interactions.

The business closes in the early afternoon, so aim for a morning visit to get your breakfast on. The inside is on the small side for a breakfast place. It seems to cater most to small gatherings of 2-4 people. We have always been seated right away, but they do have a large entryway where you can stand and wait for a table. Our server was ready with menus and took our drink order right away. My husband was thirsty and emptied his glass in mere seconds. The waiter was too kind. When he returned to refill our glasses, he decided to leave the pitcher of tea at our table so that my husband would have access anytime. He was delighted! Our food came out promptly. I ordered way too much! I got the Monterrey Eggs Benedict served on a jalapeño corn pancake instead of an English muffin. I'm really not fond of the corn pancake as the base for the Benedict, so I plan to ask for a substitution or a different dish next time. I also got a side pancake with fruit. I couldn't eat it all. It was delicious, but it was a lot of food. The dining room has a few TVs that were playing video of natural disasters. I found it disturbing, but like any train wreck, you can't help but rubberneck to see how it turns out. If I could suggest one change, it would be turn these TVs off and uninstall them. If they must keep them, find something more peaceful and relaxing to play on them. We don't go out to eat often, but this breakfast establishment is on our regular rotation of places we frequent.

What a wonderful hidden gem in Addison! First of all, the coffee is great. They serve Ascension coffee and also serve a variety of pastries, breakfast tacos, and healthy granola bars etc. This is literally the ideal place for a morning coffee and breakfast, especially if you're going to work remotely. There is an abundance of seating here, both inside and outdoors. The vibe is similar to Ascension, but the shop is larger and more spacious and a lot quieter on a weekday. Highly recommend coming here for coffee and working. read more

Every menu item is $5-7 or more, dependent on the type of coffee obviously. Any additions or size increase is another few dollars extra. For two small Iced Lattes with flavor; was just short of $15. More than 50% cream/syrup, about 40% ice, and an undetectable coffee aroma. Maybe the increased size would allow more room for what was purchased. After the tab for the coffee, I didn't find it in me to order any of the food. The menu seemed confused, and the online portal menu prices are cheaper than what is posted inside the cafe. Some by $1-2 less. Plus there seem to be more menu items on the website. Unsure if these items aren't available, or if they didn't fit on the screen. The interior and atmosphere is nothing short of cozy. The "cafe" feel was definitely nailed here. The machines and the kitchen are clean, the employees professional, and the music is fitting. I was eager to finally try Maestro after quite some time of passing by it. It is alarmingly empty for most of the day. This retail space on the corner of Keller Springs has rotated a few businesses over the years. Will be difficult to keep up with the already established neighboring businesses. Would come back for a more reasonably priced menu!
