Had a beautiful brunch with a girlfriend and was taken care of by Collin who’s customer service was so friendly, welcoming, and really stood out. The food and coffee really hit the spot, and a perfect place for a cosey meal.

Gathered Cafe is my go-to spot for everyday comfort food. I absolutely love this place. The staff are all super friendly. You have to try their matcha. The beef sizzling plate and baked eggs are so satisfying. The chicken bao was seriously amazing. Their coffee is top-notch too. Everything feels just like a comforting home-cooked meal

Cannot fault this cafe! So happy to have a solid cafe in our neighborhood. The guy who served us was awesome and provided one of the warmest customer service I’ve experienced. We sat outside and he was so kind to offer the heater which made it nice and cosy. Yummy and excellent food and drinks!! Will be back for the early grey matcha!

We had a fantastic brunch at Gathered Cafe recently. We'd booked ahead for a table for two and were happily accommodated outside in their lovely garden area. Even though it was a bit of a chilly day, the staff were incredibly thoughtful and placed heaters around us, which kept us perfectly warm and cosy – what brilliant service! We tried the chilli scrambled eggs, which were absolutely delicious and definitely my favourite, alongside the brioche Benedict eggs. Both dishes were incredibly tasty and really hit the spot. For a warmer and cosier vibe, grabbing a table inside would be perfect. But if you're after a fresh and quieter experience, the garden area is definitely the way to go. Either way, you're guaranteed to leave feeling completely satisfied. 10/10 – we'll definitely be back!
