Review  
If you find yourself on George Street enjoying some well earned me time window shopping or for those lucky ones an actual shopping spree! Why not pop into this pocket sized modern boutique cafe for a treat. 
Featuring  a long bar,  retro stools, small table arrangements and curb side seating layout, it offers a variety of tasty milkshakes, novelty Mexican iced coffees ,your favourite hot beverages,  home-made soda, local wine, and tap beer. 
They are renown for their fried chicken, poutine, salmon bagel, fresh-baked treats or a Vietnamese BBQ Pork Baguette (a favourite with locals). 
KiKi Beware have all your cravings covered. 

As this gorgeously decorated little cafe is on the small side I would save this cafe for adult only moments and as they are open late most evenings you and the hubby could easily enjoy a date night or even a catch up wine with your fellow mums! 


We definitely will be visiting again Xx

Review 

The Civic cafe is located across from the Public Library and next to the DCC. The Civic cafe is the perfect coffee stop when visiting the public library. We popped by one Friday morning before heading to Story Time with the kiddies to give them some morning tea and a quick coffee break for ourselves. Now the kiddies are 18 months and full of energy our cafe experiences are much shorter ;)

The cafe has plenty of space for pushchairs and is easily accessible. It has basic food with typical tearoom type cabinet food- pies, sandwiches as well as a menu. However, the food is reasonably priced. Their coffee is the locally roasted primo blend Capo. 

Patrons typically consist of local businesses and the elderly but the cafe certainly caters for children and families. It may not be the most glamorous cafe but the friendly staff make for an easy enjoyable experience if you're in the area or visiting the library.
