CAFE CASA

Cafe Casa is the type of place that keeps your stomach happy but doesn't make you question your life choices. Their avocado toast is decent, almost haute cuisine for breakfast, but let's not pretend it’s life-changing. The coffee is solid, and the staff, particularly a chap named Ben, adds a sprinkle of charm to the morning grind. You might not leave with a food coma, but you won't be hungry either.

While it ticks the boxes for a reliable brunch spot, the menu reads like a Pinterest board from 2017. You know the deal—smoothie bowls, eggs benedict, and a questionable number of variations on toast. Overall, you could do worse, but you could also do much better, like, you know, anywhere else with a bit more flair.
