A small cafe with coffee, tap beers and limited ready food options inside the Brighton Foodland. But they provide a large and unlimited experience thanks to their service and spirit. Hard to beat. I am a regular and let me share today’s experience after a coffee and the fabulous wrap, which may be one of the finest wraps in Adelaide (including Sydney and Melbourne on second thoughts). They have generally two wrap options on a regular basis - a Chicken Salad wrap and a Sweet Potato Falafel wrap if you want vegetarian. If the Chicken Wrap is great, the Vegetarian is iconic. Highly recommend, even if it means shopping at the Brighton Foodland once in a while. The cafe has a separate entrance and is easy to access.

Love bringing Mum here for coffee quiche and especially the yummy cakes. The staff are all wonderful and make the experience worth it. So do yourself a favour and come for lunch or coffee and cake you won’t be disappointed

Just have to try the steak sandwich, it's just amazing. Don't know what sauce they put in there but it's very tasty. The best out of the places I have tried.
