I worked for the day at the Outset Cafe with my dog, Todd — Mel and the whole team were incredible friendly and wonderful with Todd. He got many treats and attention, and as for myself the coffee was ace Will be back again when I need a change of scenery working from home!

Having a cafe right where my office is located has been an absolute game changer. It’s more than just convenient—it’s become part of my daily routine. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming, and the service is next level—they even bring my coffee straight to my office! I’m on a first-name basis with everyone, and they know my morning order before I even say a word. It’s that kind of personal touch that makes all the difference. Can’t imagine my workdays without it!
