It's a surf shop, coffee shop, smoothie shop. Pretty pricey smoothies at $10 but hey it's Bondi. Really delicious. Great stopover on the way to the beach. Nice open air set up and on the corner of Curlewis and Gould st. Literally one block from the beach and diagonally across from Drake Eatery. I recommend the Very Berry smoothie, mixed berries mango almond butter and macadamias.

They serve a very nice Açaí bowl in a nice and relaxing set up. The bowl is tasty and filled with extra goodies. One thing though is the staffs are quite unfriendly, which is surprising judging from everything this shop is set up to portray. It can be quite a put off for some people walking into the shop expecting a friendly environment and face this group of super unfriendly staffs that couldn’t even bother to serve you. If you are happy to overlook that I highly recommend this place for a nice healthy meal.

I come here to work often as I really like the vibe. I was quite surprised to read all the reviews. The acai and other smoothis bowls are really very good and are of a generous size. The coffee is decent too. I've never come at the weekend, so maybe the service is not as good then... but they have always been friendly to me! Highly recommend as a place to work/eat/catch-up with friends.

I've always wanted to come and check this place out, it looks community minded, cool and vibrant from the outside. So, I took my fiance and a friend here for breakfast this morning. As I was ordering, the manager (American bloke) came and interrupted me whilst I was ordering to yell at the cashier about not serving up boiled eggs like porch and parlour do and then looked at me as if I was the one wanting boiled eggs (I didn't want boiled eggs and if you have to give feedback to staff, pull them away and speak with them privately. Completely unprofessional). The two others got their meals.... And finished them, and our orange juice, acai smoothie or my meal were no where to be seen. I asked how long and they said soon, 5 minutes passed and we got our drinks (slammed on the table) the and they said another 7 minutes on my breakfast. It was way too late by this stage so I asked for a refund and I got a bacon and egg roll elsewhere. They treated us like horribly from start to end, they treated us like horribly when we raised concerns and there was zero conflict resolution. Moral of the story, you may be busy, you may be stressed, you may be grumpy... But if you're a customer service establishment.... Act like one. Let your customers know the realistic wait times, show attentive care and understanding, don't be rude... You've turned an experience that I was so stoked on, into literally the worst cafe experience I've had in my life.
