Top choice in Tasmania


The sleek and ultra-stylish Victoria Arduino espresso machine at this cute cafe in the post office building is put to good use producing coffees to accompany delicious breakfast dishes (smoked salmon bagels, house-made granola, eggs Benedict) and equally alluring light lunches (frittata, quiche, cheese platters). Sit inside or at one of the streetside tables.
