    The staff and service at Old Man Drew was top level. They were attentive without being over the top. The food was lovely (just wish the tea came earlier and there was more of a selection). The atmosphere is quirky and takes you down memory lane. And the shop is a lovely touch to pick up something unique.

    Amazing food as always. Love that there’s quite a few options for vegans and not just smashed avo on toast like most places. Brought some friends here for first time and they were very impressed esp by the coffee options. Staff are always great but our waiter today was next level. Thanks again.
