Great place . I tried green smash and it was so yum. Presentation was top notch. We were a group of 10 and we got our drinks good quite fast. Smooth experience .
Great place to stop by. It's a corner shop with big cups of coffee and great food selection. We order the Benny with the Twist and a Mushie Toastie. A bit pricey but both absolutely delicious. Eggs poached well and the cream sauce was great. Would come again.

Wonderfully friendly and helpful barista Alex. This coffee (Uganda anaerobic) certainly slaps. Also loved the egg muffin and french toast.
These are the types of businesses that Frankston City needs to keep supporting and attracting. Fresh, vibrant and bustling traders delivering quality hospitality and service. This is a great move for Commonfolk, with lots more foot traffic and customers as a result.
