Please hide the menus and specials board before closing the kitchen. Apple and cinnamon muffin was served reheated even though I did not request it to be microwaved. Had the appearance of sweating. There were no other apple and cinnamon muffins left to replace it. Taste was less than fresh despite being warmed before serving. Only two tiny pieces of apple in the whole muffin. Disappointing to see a great local gem lose the attention to detail. Hats off to the Sunday afternoon barista for a wonderful coffee though.

This Korean-run café has interesting interior design choices, and also a back courtyard for outdoor seating. However, it does seem this back section is somewhat neglected as there were dead cockroaches lying around... Anyway, the green tea latte was pretty good and not typically sweet so that was a plus. Comes out in a relatively good sized mug with cute latte art. The salad sandwich was very tasty also. Yes, it is just a sandwich but it was a good mix of fresh ingredients that made a delicious combo. Was only after a light meal and this did the trick.

Thanks Bee's Knees for opening on a Sunday! It was a real saver when looking for a place that's…read moreopen...and I didn't want to hang out in some place at Hornsfield (Hornsby Westfield that is). Thank you also, Bee's Knees for pricing your menu reasonably! Not being in a Westfield has definitely its advantages. Menu items are between $13 and $20+. Small coffee $3.50, large $4. And they're good! The menu is somewhat limited, but that's really ok - unless you've come for some smashed avocado on sourdough (one of those staples every hipster joint MUST have these days). Sitting in the lounge chairs or the court yard is inviting. What I don't really like is the vintage (or should I write "vintage") stuff. There's quite a bit of that around. In fact there are so many vintage items, you could be forgiven to think that you've stepped into a second hand shop. The mix of vintage fashion and café is pleasing to a degree but what bothers me a bit is that there are so many hipster cafés around doing this that this mix seems worn or at least overused. In addition, I doubt that all the items are in fact vintage, or just made to look like they are old or were recycled. A lot of cafés do this. It's pretentious and doesn't have the effect that actual recycling has. Don't get me wrong it's a good place for a sip and bite, but don't pay $74 for a "vintage" mirror.

We came here for lunch and had a steak sandwich and 5 spice squid salad. Both were just under $20 but were very nice. The coffee is also good and there are some temptations in the refrigerated display but I resisted. There were plenty of people in for coffee and lunch but we didn't have to wait too long for the order to be taken and then the food to arrive. Service was friendly too. You might have to park in a side street but not too far away from the front door.

Upon arrival it has so far taken about ten minutes to be given a menu.. and another ten minutes for the waiter to come back and take our order. The place is quite busy with the inside seating area full. The waitress seems run off her feet and her short and impolite service definitely leaves a sour taste in the mouth. Our drinks came out approximately 25mins later (chocolate milkshake & red Fanta type soda with mint) and about 5-10mins after that we were brought our food.. but we had to get up and go inside and ask the waitress to bring out cutlery as she had forgot to do so when she brought the food to the table. We ordered the creamy corn fritters.. they were cold and tasted as if they had been pre-made & slightly reheated in a microwave.. :( they did have quite a good amount of smoked salmon which was good.. but you couldn't taste any wasabi.. pretty bland tasting.. The French toast was also cold and was pretty much just a piece of brioche bread coated in some sugar.. definitely didn't eat more than a quarter of it.. The only good thing about this place was their wrap.. a simple bacon and salad wrap - was the only thing that wasn't left on the plate. Overall- I definitely would NOT recommend this cafe! Unfriendly staff - poor customer service - extremely long wait time for drinks and food - and the price was ridiculous (approx $85!) Will not be returning.

I had a panini - the mozarella and egplant panini. It was very tasty, although I found the "bitter rocket" was a bit bitter for me. My complaint was that the menu was a bit limited for food. There are about 4-5 panini options and around the same number of salad options. There are also some breakfast options (muesli, fruit, etc). It's not the place to go if you want a large variety of options for food, but I didn't get coffee so food was what I focused on. The decor is fun - artsy and Melbourne-esque. It feels like a cafe that belongs in Newtown.

I think we were here for only 45 minutes and it was amazing! I started out with the iced strawberry matcha and my husband had their iced mocha. The iced mocha was good but the iced strawberry matcha was flawless. The strawberries were so fresh and the matcha was just perfect itself. Great combo together! My husband had the free range eggs on toast and I had the eggs Benedict. His was delicious but the eggs Benedict was amazing. The crispy kale really sold me as it was delectable in each bite. Eggs were poached to perfection and the truffle hollandaise was just delicious. Couldn't have had a better experience if we tried!

For a larger party, coming in with a reservation was convenient since they are pretty busy and change tables often. Service staff were efficient and very friendly. Ordering was easy as well. Their seasonal specials is definitely worth the look over. I had the peanut butter shake and although it didn't look it, it tasted very much like peanut butter in liquid form. I also got to try the summer breeze watermelon salad. That was refreshing. It had a mix of greens, dressing, feta and a crisp prosciutto. I've never had prosciutto served fried; it was delicious. The whole piece married well, and I wish I knew the background of how it was created. I loved every bite! Although the place was crowded, it can still be intimate. Besides indoor seating, they also have a patio and seating outside.
