JOSEPH STREET KITCHEN

Fresh salads, house made breads and tasty classics like homemade baked beans, and authentic spanakopita, Joseph Street Kitchen is a local not-so-secret hot spot. Tucked away on a semi-suburban street, in an old hall, the eclectic nature of this café makes the atmosphere warm and welcoming, with mismatched tables, and chairs hung from the ceiling. The large outdoor area is dog friendly and is draped in a rambling grape vine making you feel like you’re hidden away from the world. The in-house micro-roasted coffee is top-notch, and the summer smoothie menu is the perfect cool down.

Open Tuesday to Saturday.
