My son and I found this place during a Google search and have visited twice. First day we had smoothies to-go and they were. We had some more time on our second visit and dined in. My son ordered the breakfast platter and loved it. I had coffee and I was happy that it was freshly brewed and good quality. The atmosphere is light and airy, prices reasonable. When I’m in Nevis again will definite come by.

Went for breakfast, had very nice Omelette with fresh toast and fruits, and a cup of Americano. Coffee was surprised me. And cafe vibes, bright sunshine came through from the window, with nice food, and lovely service.

Great hidden gem of a coffee shop/restaurant in Charlestown! Owner was very kind and the coffee/food was great! Highly recommend the spinach tomato panini (add bacon too if you’d like!)

Nice air conditioning on a hot day. The service was nice, the waffle was good, crispy, almost too dark for me, but my husband liked it. He like his sandwich. The chai tea latte was good. The Sunshine smoothie is so good, i wish it was a little less sweet, but it's me, i like less sugar on anything. It's upstairs and very nice and clean place.
