photo(79)This cafe visit was purely leisure as I met up with my sister for lunch last week. It was a very hot day and the baby and I had had an *interesting*, shall we say, morning.

Cantina, on Beautfort St, is a lil’ bit fancy and I’m never really sure about it. It’s a bit pricey but the coffee is really good. The service is very attentive and obliging but you can’t alter anything on the menu, which was problematic for me when pregnant as their only vegetarian dishes weren’t pregnancy friendly.

Pros:

  • Good coffee
  • Excellent table service
  • Very clean toilets
  • Nice range of seating options including booths (good for allowing the baby to spread out) and out of the way tables with ramp for access.
  • My pram was technically in the way of traffic but noone really minded
  • We sat for quite a while and the staff were happy to offer more coffee and refills of free water
  • The food is good – I ordered the gnocchi which I both ordered at the cafe I reviewed last week and the last time I was at this cafe. I like gnocchi. Also, vegetarian.

Cons:

  • No Wifi.
  • It’s pricey
  • The coffee is served in itty bitty cups. It felt like 3 mouthfuls of flat white. Delicious but not really enough for if you want to sit over a cup of coffee. Also … expensive for what you get.
  • We sat outside on the warm day which was warm

Overall, the coffee is very good and the service makes the visit enjoyable. It’s a nice spot to catch up with friends, I’m a semi regular there. But I don’t think it will be on our working space list.
