Went there for brunch. Very busy place but staff are so friendly and welcoming. Attentive service even at the busiest time. We had fried chicken burger and Tiramisu Croffle, it was delicious. Highly recommended.

Fabulous creamy mushrooms and excellent coffee. I explained that I only had 30 minutes and they had a perfect lunch in front of me in 8 minutes flat (even though it was during the middle of the lunchtime rush). Lovely serving staff!

We came here for lunch and they were way too busy.
Though manager was super nice but other staffs looked like they were there to make some money.
Food was really great! Deserve to get a good review👍

Love the food here. We had the chilli crab scrambled eggs and the prawn spaghetti, both so tasty!! The eggs had good chunks of crab meat hence the $29 price tag 😅

yum yum yum!! the food is sooo good. My friend and i got the omurice and bibimbap to share and both were super flavourful and delicious!! Portions are really good and service was quick. The servers were quite busy tho so it took a while to get seated but other than that great service and amazing vibe. Would definitely recommend!!

I was initially surprised that I couldn't get actual candy here, but after a few moments I managed. The food here is pretty good as were the warm drinks. A very relaxing atmosphere is also a big plus.

Still waiting for the day The Candy Shop will disappoint, they just never do
I was a bit sad there was no batch brew but food as always was on point, the udon was really yummy on first bite but then flavors paled in comparison to the other more flavorful dishes. Also a slight miss was the bibimbap, a little on the lighter blander side of things.
But they can do no wrong with their scampi pasta!!! So so good and cooked to perfection every time.
WOW their Kale, cauliflower, broccoli salad was SO delicious!!! Strongly recommend, cooked so well, such a delicious sauce!
And their chilli crab scramble - very generous on the crab side and perfect eggs.
Don’t get me started on how yum the Croffle was, they never fail with their Croffle!! So yummy!!!!! 😍😍😍

We've been meaning to try The Candy Shop for such a long time and we finally did it today and it is really great.
Their coffees are full of flavor and the food we had was spot on. The scampi pasta was one of the best we had.
We ordered omurice with pork belly on a side so my son can have it but, although it was cooked to perfection, the porkbelly was tasteless. Maybe it was meant to be eaten only combined with the omurice (I feel that's the case).
All in one, great place and I cannot recommend more!
