Food is good and reasonably priced. Nice chill atmosphere with good music as well. Often very busy at lunch time however so it can be difficult to get a table.

Food: stunning. Staff: stunning. Price: the cheapest tastiest thing within a thirty minute walk (if not in the city??? hot take). Goldsmith hall: less stunning, but that's my take as an Arts Block kid
