Quality food AND customer service, win-win. Phone didn’t even get to eat first for this one — the nourish bowl was too good!! Both quantity and quality here in terms of the bowl, and a standout warmth from the staff. Make this your next stop! I’d highly rec.

I’ve been coming to Filosofy Project for years—usually to grab a coffee and a light breakfast for myself or the crew. I’m not a coffee snob, but I know a good brew when I have one—and the coffee here is consistently damn good. There have been a few different owners but the place has maintained high standards and friendly service. A few of my regular food picks: • Egg and bacon tart with relish – Absolutely delicious and always gets me through to smoko. • Ham and cheese croissant – Fresh, simple, and always hits the spot. It’s a great local spot, especially for those working nearby or just passing through. I love this place and will always come back for more.

Lovely little cafe, cool vibe/atmosphere considering it's small. The staff and service was great and coffee incredible. Small menu though with not too many options, quite basic but the food was still nice and good. The stand out was really the coffee and the service

Really nice vibe, open space, quick service and friendly. Had a chai latte and it was an authentic loose leaf with a filter which is lovely and hard to find for a proper chai. Thank you :)
