"I had an awesome açai bowl with peanut butter at the Terrarium cafe this morning. It was perfect paired with a turmeric elixir. A lovely cafe away from the bustle of the city, but still very popular. I’ll definitely be back!"

"Great place to stop in for eats and coffee. I've been here a few times for breakfast and brunch. Food is always good. It's fresh and well presented on the plate. Good coffee. This visit I had the chilli scrambled eggs. Just the right amount of chilli. Enough to taste but not over- powering. Husband had the wagyu burger with sweet potato Fries. Both delicious. Friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Good parking right outside. I recommend."
