The old pilot station on Wharf Road

We opened in 2019 in the old pilot station, with a deck that catches the morning sun.

The beans are single-origin, roasted in Carrington and ground to order. The food comes from local growers. And the harbour sits right there, past the railing — ferries, sails and morning light while your coffee cools.
